Making changes in spite of fear [21]
Description
Do you find that fear keeps you from living the life you want and making the changes you want to make? Being the parent you want to be? Maybe fear is keeping you stuck? How do you calm it?
There's a healthy level of fear designed to keep us alive and biologically pass along our genes. But for many people. Fear keeps us stuck in our comfort zone, which prevents us from giving our best to ourselves, our loved ones, and our dreams.
So we need to find ways to overcome the fears that live in the shadows of our minds, in the voices of others along our journey that have been fed to us. But when we finally do the work and realize that it's difficult, it can make us feel like a failure.
In today's episode, we'll dive into this and ways that you can overcome the difficulty and make the positive changes that you need to make even when these challenges make it feel like you failed.
Are you ready?
In this episode, we cover:
- No one is immune to fear
- The key to becoming the parent they need to be is to focus on...
- To transform your fear, you must....
- Pattern interrupt?
- How to transform fear, so it doesn't hold you back.
About the Host:
Ray Bourcier - Conscious parent coach, stay-at-home father, husband, author, podcaster
A college and university environmental science graduate, Ray grew up in a toxic family and a toxic situation in Northern Ontario, Canada. As a result, he experienced the first of many PTSD events at age five, which would begin his nearly three-decade struggle with anxiety and depression.
Spending most of his life in survival mode without support, he eventually discovered and developed ways to overcome his struggles when nothing else worked.
With a passion for helping others, he made it his mission to help transform the lives and impact the worlds of eleven million people so they too can give their best to themselves, their loved ones, and their career.
An ancient Chinese proverb that Ray loves states, "To know the road ahead, ask those coming back." Ray is on the road back to offer you the support you need every step on your journey so that you, too, will be on the same road back. Ray believes that only those who've walked that road can truly understand the struggles that you go through.
Together, we will become the rising tide that lifts all boats.
Together, we are unstoppable.
In his off time, you can find Ray spending time with his daughter, reading books, watching hockey, and contemplating whether pineapple belongs on pizza.
