I Entered a Burro Race as a Beginner and Outran My Fear -...

What this episode covers

What if a stubborn, snack-loving donkey named Bonita could teach me more about my own anxiety than years of overthinking ever did? I entered a mountain burro race as a complete novice, and my anxious parts ran a full propaganda campaign about every way I might fail. What I found on that trail was the discernment between fear that protects me and fear that quietly shrinks my life. My confidence didn't grow from theory or talk. It grew through doing the hard thing while my scared parts watched my wise woman take the reins.

Empowered by Darkness Andrea Medina Hi, I’m Andrea Medina. Though I’m in my early 20s, the history of relational trauma in my family lineage coupled with my own father’s abuse and abandonment, has instilled in me a self-awareness and sensitivity to emotions from a young age. I was born in México and raised in Compton, a community where I didn’t have many mentors or influences that pointed me in the direction of emotional healing work. Still, I went on to publish The Energized Self: A Journey to Interconnected Healing, a book that is half memoir and half conversations with trauma survivors at the age of 22. This same year I began my public speaking journey and my master’s program to become a Marriage and Family Therapist.As I find myself rising to fulfill my soul’s calling today, I am still in the same location where conversations like the ones had in this podcast aren’t common. I’m also faced with a myriad of economic and social challenges that I know listeners will relate to. My goal is that
