Description

In this episode of the Practical Spirituality Podcast, hosts Gareth and Kim explore the ways in which we experience fear and the role it plays in our personal journeys. They look at how fear can either paralyze people or push them toward personal growth. They encourage listeners to recognise fear as more than just a negative emotion to be avoided and show how confronting our fears can pave the way for resilience and empowerment.

Gareth and Kim delve into fear’s primal origins, highlighting the ancient survival mechanisms that still influence modern life. They address the universal experience of fearing inadequacy and failure, sharing personal stories, practical tools and strategies for facing fear head-on.

Throughout their discussion, Gareth and Kim also consider the connections between fear and other emotions like love and grief, emphasizing the value of embracing emotions rather than trying to eliminate them. They encourage listeners to take responsibility for their fears, recognizing that although fear may never fully disappear, understanding it leads to increased confidence and self-awareness.
