Fear is something every one of us faces — it’s part of being human. But for the believer, fear doesn’t have to control us. In this heartfelt daily prayer and devotional, Keneesha Saunders-Liddie reminds us that faith isn’t the absence of fear — it’s the courage to move forward in spite of it. When Keneesha found herself stranded at just 13 years old, she experienced firsthand what it meant to trust God in a moment of real danger. That night, she learned that faith doesn’t always remove fear, but it gives us the strength to act even when we’re trembling. As followers of Christ, we are called to “do it scared” — to take the next step, obey His call, and trust that the Lord who is for us will lead us safely to where we need to be. The truth of Psalm 118:6 reminds us that no person, opinion, or circumstance can stand against God’s plan for our lives. He is with us, and He is for us — and that changes everything. Today's Bible Reading:“The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me?” – Psalm 118:6, NLT

If you constantly live in fear, your world gets smaller and smaller." - Tony RobbinsTony Robbins breaks down why so many of us stay stuck even when we desperately want to change. He uses this brilliant metaphor: imagine your identity is like a thermostat set to 68 degrees. You might dream about hitting 98, or panic when you drop to 60, but either way, you'll sabotage yourself back to what feels familiar. It's not about willpower or motivation—it's about who you believe you are at your core. Tony shares why he still does the fire walk after all these years, and it's not some motivational gimmick. It's about giving people a visceral experience that rewires their brain in real-time. When you walk across burning coals and make it to the other side, something shifts: "If I could do that, what else could I get myself to do?" That question changes everything.What makes this conversation so powerful is how Tony dismantles the difference between beliefs and experiences. You can read every self-help book on the planet, but until you actually do something that scares you, until you break through that invisible ceiling you've built around yourself, nothing truly changes. He talks about overprotected kids who never broke a bone being more fearful than the ones who got hurt and healed—there's no substitute for lived experience. This isn't about toxic positivity or pretending fear doesn't exist. It's about understanding that your current identity, the labels you've given yourself based on your past, might be the only thing standing between you and the life you actually want. Tony shows you how to expand that identity so the breakthrough becomes inevitable.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In the early 2000s, a predator was stalking the quiet towns and villages that circle London — communities linked not by proximity, but by terror. Over twelve months, women across Kent, Surrey, Sussex, and Hertfordshire were attacked in their homes, in parks, and on suburban streets. The press would call him “The M25 Rapist.” In this episode of Seeing Red, we uncover the crimes of Antoni Imiela — a seemingly ordinary family man whose violent attacks left police baffled and women afraid to walk alone. We'll trace how DNA evidence finally exposed him, the shocking scale of his crimes, and the chilling arrogance of a man who believed he'd never be caught. Because sometimes, the most dangerous monsters aren't hiding in the city — they're living right next door. Why not BINGE our back catalogue of over a HUNDRED Patreon exclusive bonus episodes?

In this episode of The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex, we dive into how to build a brand so strong that competitors can't copy it—they start to fear it. Paul reveals the truth most entrepreneurs miss: branding isn't about fancy logos or websites—it's about trust. Real branding is built through consistency, reputation, and results. Every message, product, and customer interaction either strengthens or weakens your name.
God hasn't given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and discipline. In moments of shame or uncertainty, we must rely on God's divine resources already at work in us. When our eyes are on His strength and not our own, we walk boldly and purposefully for His glory.
In the spirit of Halloween, we're talking about something that shows up everywhere in our lives — fear. This week, I'm joined by Dr. Mary Poffenroth — fear researcher, author, and science communicator — to explore how fear shapes the way we think, make decisions, and relate to money. Mary shares such powerful, practical wisdom about recognizing our fear responses, understanding the cultural messages we've learned about fear, and using fear as information instead of letting it quietly run the show. More About Mary: Dr. Mary Poffenroth is a fear and courage researcher, author, and educator who's spent her career helping people understand what fear really is — and how to move through it with more confidence and compassion. She started her career at NASA, supporting payload experiments for the Space Shuttle Columbia mission, before diving deep into the psychology of fear. She now teaches at San José State University and has spent nearly two decades helping thousands of students and professionals turn fear into fuel. Mary holds a Ph.D. in psychology (plus three master's degrees — in biology, psychology, and science communication!) and has spoken at TEDx London, Harvard, and SXSW. Her new book, Brave New You: Strategies, Tools, and Neurohacks to Live More Courageously Every Day, offers practical, science-backed ways to work with fear instead of against it Connect with Mary: Get her new book: Brave New You – available wherever books are sold Find her Neurohacking Cards: hellobravenewyou.com Website: marypoffenroth.com Social: @marypoffenroth ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why This Episode Matters:AudioHaze has quietly built an incredibly respected music education platform online. From forensic artist recreations to heartfelt reflections on creativity, his channel has become a masterclass in curiosity and craft. In this conversation, we get into the realities of being a full-time creator, from loneliness and editing marathons to embracing mic bleed, imperfection, and community. His message? The giant leap you're waiting for probably doesn't exist. It's all about the small, painful, necessary steps.Who is AudioHaze:Ricky is the creator behind AudioHaze, a YouTube channel focused on recreating iconic artist sounds through real-world setups and deep music education. His work blends technical expertise, production storytelling, and emotional honesty, showing how creativity thrives not in perfection, but in process. He's collaborated with musicians to recreate everything from The Beatles rooftop sessions to Vulfpeck performances, always breaking down the “how” and the “why” behind great sound.What We Dive Into:* The creative isolation of being a solo creator, and how to build community* Why you don't need hardware or new plugins to make something great* Mic bleed, live setups, and the psychology of real collaboration* The economics of creating: YouTube, Patreon, sponsors, and building income streams* Fear as a creative fuel and how to avoid burning out* The myth of the “big break” and the beauty of slow progressThree Key Takeaways:* The Monumental Leap is a Monumental Lie: Every breakthrough comes from hundreds of small, invisible steps. The daily grind is the real magic.* Create to Connect: The more you open up, even when it's scary, the more meaningful your work becomes.* Build Around What You Love, Not What You Fear: Sustainable success comes from balancing ambition with joy, community, and rest.Before You Go:Think about your own version of small, consistent steps.

The legend, Gee Atherton is on the podcast! In this episode Gee opens up like never before. From bottling fear and the brutal lessons of the Knife Edge crash, to the mindset shift that's carried him from World Cup Downhill racing into big mountain freeride projects. We get into the story of Atherton Bikes and why the family had to start their own brand, why having a World Cup race team was non-negotiable, and what it really takes to build a bike/brand with his family. Gee talks about the future of Red Bull Hardline, why the course has to keep getting bigger, faster and gnarlier, how fear bonds the riders together, and whether it's spawning a brand new discipline: Super Downhill. He also reflects on Rampage (two 2nd places), why walking away from a feature hurts more than crashing, and shares the training hacks that keep him riding at the top level after decades of injuries. Gee teases a brand new edit that almost required him to ride in a stab proof vest and his next big-mountain project in Nepal. This is a rare look inside the mindset of one of the sport's most iconic characters, this episode is unmissable and we hope you enjoy it. If you do, share the episode with your friends!

Is fear quietly keeping you stuck while you believe you're playing it safe? In today's episode, I get real about the fears that hold therapists back from growing beyond back-to-back sessions and building the freedom they crave. So many of us think we're making responsible choices by sticking to what we know, but the truth is, fear is keeping you stuck and costing you more than you realize.I open up about my own journey, how I went from burnout and a capped income to earning six figures a month. You'll hear why the “safe” path of sticking only to therapy is actually the riskiest move, and how shifting your mindset can help you scale quickly.If you're ready to stop letting fear run your business and start saying yes to more income, freedom, and impact, this episode is for you. Join me for some tough love, honest conversation, and the push you need to finally put fear in the backseat and take the wheel of your business.Topics covered on Fear Is Keeping You Stuck:Why the “safe” option of staying in therapy is actually costing you more than you think.What it looks like to work smarter, not harder, as a therapist.How you can start making smart investments that actually move your business forward. Client success stories of therapists who stopped waiting to feel ready and just decided to go ALL IN.How you can collapse timelines and reach your goals faster by changing your strategy.

Faith Over Fear: Turning Your Butterflies Into Breakthroughs Have you ever wondered how much your fears are truly costing you? In this week's episode of the MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass, I'm getting real about one of the most powerful forces in your life, fear, and how it quietly keeps you from becoming the person you were born to be. I used to live afraid. Afraid I wasn't good enough, afraid of what people thought, afraid to lose people who didn't even want the best for me. But what I've learned is that fear isn't your enemy, it's your invitation. Every great thing in your life is waiting for you on the other side of it. In this episode, I walk you through how to stop letting fear define your decisions and start using it as fuel for your growth. You'll learn how to reframe fear as what I call “butterfly moments," those powerful times when fear and excitement mix together just before something incredible happens. From overcoming my fear of public speaking to watching my daughter face her own fears, I've learned that you don't need to eliminate fear to move forward, you just need to get to 51% courage. I also share a set of real tools that have helped me and countless others dance with fear instead of running from it. You'll learn how to use breathing techniques, visualization, humor, and even “trigger words” to shift your emotional state in seconds. Fear and excitement create the same chemistry in your body... the difference is what you name it. Once you learn to rename your fear as anticipation, everything changes. If you've been living with invisible anchors holding you down: old stories, toxic relationships, and self-doubt, this is your moment to let go. The goal isn't to become fearless; it's to fear less and act more. Because when you do, you'll finally meet the version of you that's been waiting on the other side. And that version? That's the one who was born to do something great. Key Takeaways: Fear and excitement are biochemically identical, it's all about how you interpret them How to reframe fear as a “butterfly moment” that signals growth is near Why you only need 51% courage to take action The power of trigger words and visualization to change your emotional state instantly How to turn your fears into fuel for confidence, connection, and calling You don't have to kill your fear. You just have to rename it. Because every time you face it, you earn your wings. Also don't miss out on MAXOUT2026: Once a year, I open my home for an intimate one-day experience unlike anything else I do. This year, I'm making it even smaller, just 12 to 15 people.

Do you ever feel like nothing in your life will ever be good enough? In today’s honest and insightful episode, Heather Creekmore opens up about her struggles with CDD or “Chronic Disappointment Disorder”—a feeling that no achievement or special day is ever truly satisfying. She explores the root of this persistent discontent and uncovers how fear, envy, and comparison play into our longing for "enough." Heather dives deep into the heart-level issues fueling our dissatisfaction and shares practical wisdom on searching for true contentment in Christ. Drawing lessons from Tim Keller’s teachings on envy, Heather reveals how comparison, restlessness, and selfish ambition point us toward deeper spiritual problems, including idolatry. The episode is packed with personal stories, scriptural references, and actionable advice for anyone weighed down by the fear of never measuring up. If you struggle with body image, success, or just feeling like you’re perpetually missing out, Heather walks you through how to identify envy, repent, and redirect your heart toward worship and gratitude. Ultimately, this episode is filled with hope—reminding us that our deepest satisfaction can only be found in Jesus and in the coming kingdom. Episode Highlights: Personal stories of disappointment, from vacations to Mother's Day Discontent, envy, and their spiritual dangers How reslessness and comparison are more than just “bad habits”—they're rooted in envy The connection between body image, identity, and idolatry Scripture references: James 3:16, Galatians 5:19-21, 1 Corinthians 13:4, Proverbs 14:30 Tim Keller’s two directions for overcoming envy: upward (fear of the Lord) and forward (hope in Christ for the future) The crucial role of repentance and confession—not just positive thinking Surrendering goals and desires to God for genuine change Turning discontent into worship and gratitude Resources & Links: The Comparison Free Life by Heather Creekmore* 40 Day Body Image Workbook* Tim Keller’s Sermons on Envy (Listen here) Connect with Heather: Compared to Who?

As women, especially Moms, we have life experiences that have formed us. Our struggles and triumphs become a message to share to inspire others. In a world where we continuously seek ways to make a difference, the power of sharing our experiences and insights has never been more crucial. Whether you're driven by a sense of purpose or a desire to impact others positively, speaking can be a transformative tool in your journey. Unfortunately, many individuals feel a calling to share their message, but are often held back by uncertainty and self-doubt. However, if you have an impactful message, we want to help you start speaking today to share your story and make a difference. Your Unique Message to Share Everyone has a story or perspective that deserves to be shared. It's common to compare our stories to others, wondering if they are significant enough. Remember, what seems ordinary to you might be life-changing for others. The value of your message lies in its authenticity and relatability, not in pomp or spectacle. Embrace this reality and step forward to share what makes your journey unique. Start Speaking: Find Your Focus If you want to start speaking, clarity is your friend. Begin by defining what you want to be known for—your speaker statement. This involves identifying who you can help and how your speaking can facilitate that transformation. Specificity in your message enables you to connect with the right audience. Rather than trying to cover numerous topics, focus on one area where your insights can have the most significant impact. Overcoming the Fear of Speaking For many, anxiety and fear are significant hurdles to becoming a speaker. Shifting from seeing public speaking as a performance to viewing it as a service can make a huge difference. By focusing less on yourself and more on the needs of your audience, the pressure to be perfect diminishes. Think of yourself as a lighthouse, guiding others with your insights, instead of a spotlight, seeking validation. Read the full show notes and access all links.

Fear can hold us back from boldly sharing the hope of Jesus, but God calls every believer to step forward in courage. Drawing from Joshua 1:9, this devotional encourages Christians to rely on God’s presence and strength to overcome fear and proclaim the Good News with confidence. Courage is not the absence of fear—it’s trusting that God goes with us wherever we are sent. Highlights Fear often surfaces when we feel unprepared or anxious to share our faith. God commands strength and courage, promising His presence wherever we go (Joshua 1:9). The enemy uses fear to silence believers, but God’s power surpasses any opposition. True courage flows from trusting God, not relying on our own abilities. Speaking the truth of Jesus with love can impact lives and advance His Kingdom. Join the Conversation Where has God been calling you to step out in courage? Share a moment you overcame fear by trusting Him.

There are some seasons we go through that truly feel like we're being stretched beyond what we can handle. Whether its exciting moves of God where doors are opening all at once -doors you once prayed to open but now it feels like time is fleeting. Or it's constant transitions where you can't seem to catch a moment to breath and you're wondering when it'll slow down. Or a workload and family life that can feel impossible to juggle as everything seems to be pressing for your time. The stretching seasons can truly teach us so much IF we can slow down long enough to learn the lessons God has for us in them. In this episode I discuss 10 lessons I've learned from the stretching seasons I've been in that I hope can save you time and overwhelm. Lessons mentors have walked me through even in this season. Remember the enemy would love it if you quit during the stretching seasons, but don't. You can adjust, you can pivot, you can even slow down but just don't give up.

Halloween was always a bit rough for me. Free candy's great, but how do you put a costume on top of the costume of the cis person people tell you that you have to be? Even when I had a costume, I was terrified of using any makeup or hair dye... because what I was really afraid of is that I would LIKE those things, and then what would that say about me?

When a person is experiencing fear, the ego responds by aggression, avoidance or paralysis. Another way to look at this situation is the old concept of “fight, flight or freeze”. If the situation is producing fear, the ego usually overcompensates in order to maintain its sense of self and security.Join us on the show today as Mary and I discuss our current state of affairs and how fear is creating major obstacles both in our personal lives and on a national scale.Mary Crawford can be reached for further consultation on how to Jumpstart Lasting Change via her website at TheJoyOfBeingWell.com.Listen to this week's program below or on your podcast platform of choice by clicking Here.

If you've ever hesitated to hit send, make the call, or follow up because you didn't want to “bug” your donors, this episode is for you.That fear isn't really about your donors, it's about you. It's your ego trying to keep you safe from rejection, discomfort, or embarrassment. But every time you let that fear win, you lose more than a donation. You lose momentum, trust, and connection. In this episode, I share how I coach fundraisers to move from me mode to mission mode. Because when you stop performing and start leading, everything changes. You'll learn how to reframe rejection, build confidence, and lead with courage instead of apology. Your donors aren't tired of hearing from you; they've just stopped hearing you. Generosity doesn't happen in silence, it happens because you asked.Topics:The real reason fundraisers fear “bugging” donors (and what it costs your mission)How ego and self-protection masquerade as “strategy”Moving from “me mode” to “mission mode” in your fundraising approachWhy consistency builds donor trust and silence erodes itThe mindset and language shift from apologetic to confident askingFor a full list of links and resources mentioned in this episode, click here.Bloomerang is the complete donor, volunteer, and fundraising management solution that helps thousands of nonprofits deliver a better giving experience and create sustainable, thriving organizations.

Fear of failure doesn't vanish with pep talks, and comparison doesn't make kids try harder. We sat down with psychologist and author Dr. Kate Lund to explore practical ways families can trade perfection pressure for resilient growth—without asking kids to be fearless. Kate shares her powerful personal story of growing up with hydrocephalus and how her parents focused on who she was, not what she had. That lens—see strengths, acknowledge limits, stay connected—anchors everything we unpack, from sibling dynamics to teen pushback.We get specific about the moments parents struggle most: a cautious child who won't start unless success is guaranteed, a sibling who races ahead and sets an unhelpful bar, and a teenager who says, “You don't get it.” Kate lays out clear moves that change the tone. Lead with active listening to earn trust, share your own stumbles only when it serves them, and replace outcome fixation with process praise. We dig into the comparison trap—why it erodes motivation—and how shifting to individualized expectations helps each child see their unique path. Instead of sizing kids against each other, we ask: what strengths did you use today, and where did effort show up?You'll leave with two simple habits that deliver real results. First, the relaxation response: five minutes of focused breathing with a soothing word builds a calm baseline so challenges don't spike into shutdown. Second, the daily wins exercise: write three to five things that went well to counter negativity bias and reinforce progress. These tools travel well across school, sports, and friendships, helping kids face hard things, learn from missteps, and try again with more confidence.If fear, comparison, or constant self-critique has been steering your home, this conversation offers a reset grounded in empathy, science, and doable routines. Listen, share it with a friend who needs it, and if it helped, follow the show and leave a quick review so more parents can find these tools.Connect with Dr. KateFind her on Instagram here, or check out her book Step Away: The Keys to Resilient Parenting on Amazon.

Fear can creep into our hearts from unexpected places — a troubling story, a dark memory, or an image we wish we could erase. As our daily prayer and devotional remind us, evil and darkness are real in our world, and Scripture never minimizes their existence. Yet, it also tells us a far greater truth: Jesus has already won the victory. In this powerful reflection, Sophia Bricker reminds us that while the world often surrounds us with shadows, we can stand in the unshakable light of Christ. On the cross, Jesus broke the power of sin, death, and the devil. What seemed like defeat became the ultimate triumph — the moment when light shattered the darkness forever. Even though we still live in a fallen world, we can find peace by focusing our minds on Christ’s love and His authority over all evil. When fearful memories or anxious thoughts return, we can rest in the truth that nothing can separate us from His love (Romans 8:38–39). Jesus is the Light of the World — and in Him, no darkness can remain. Today's Bible Reading:“Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil—and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death.” – Hebrews 2:14–15, NIV
A viral tweet recently claimed that 30-year-olds today can't afford what previous generations could—a house they like, a decent car, a $100K salary, and a stay-at-home spouse. Here's the truth: I was 30 in 2006 and only achieved half of that list. We had seafoam green carpet, a purple bedroom, squirrels living in our roof, a 2-door Camry with 150,000 miles, and a two-hour commute. But we were building something. In this episode, I'm breaking down why people procrastinate when they create impossible-to-achieve dreams, why you shouldn't be discouraged if you can't have all of it right now, and why trying anyway is an act of rebellion. Instagram tells you everyone else has it all. The media tells you you'll never get it. Don't fall into that procrastination trap. Pick the parts you want first and give a little on the others. In a world addicted to fear, hope is an act of open rebellion.
