What if the biggest thing holding your business back… is a fear you haven’t even named yet? 

Most leaders think fear shows up as hesitation but in reality, it disguises itself as over-preparation, procrastination, busyness, and even perfectionism. 

In this episode of The Business Fix, Chrissy and Josh break down how fear silently shapes decisions inside small and medium-sized businesses. They reveal why fear isn’t the enemy (unmanaged fear is) and walk through practical tools to help business owners and managers regain clarity, momentum, and confidence. From identifying catastrophic thinking to applying structured decision-making, this conversation reframes fear as something you can measure, manage, and move through. 

You’ll learn how to recognize fear-based behavior in yourself and your team, assess whether a fear is objective or imagined, calculate the real cost of inaction, and build simple habits that help you stay grounded when stakes feel high. You’ll also hear how intentional time-blocking, naming your fears out loud, and shifting from “thermometer” to “thermostat” leadership can create lasting stability in your culture. 

By the end of this episode, you won’t just understand your fear, you’ll know exactly what to do with it. You’ll walk away with actionable frameworks that reduce overwhelm, strengthen decision-making, and help you lead with more confidence and clarity than ever before.
