Graceful Confidence

Episode 13 - Having the Confidence to Face Your Fears

Have you ever wanted something SO BADLY but you were afraid to take a step toward whatever that thing was? Maybe you were afraid you would fail, or were afraid of rejection, or of what people would think. 

Fear can hold us back from accomplishing some pretty remarkable things but it can also keep us in a place where we feel frozen. In this episode Lauren will explore what some of these fears are rooted in and how we can work to break past those barriers and see what is on the other side. 

What is that you thing you would do if you were not afraid to do it?
