This Coffee with Christie video addresses fearlessness. Fear is a topic I know well as I was living in fear most of my life. If any of us are honest, we would also say the same…however it appears that the people living in fear the most actually have no idea that they are living in a state of fear. They call it comfort, or routine, or practicality.
We all use many excuses to cover up our fears. Medical reasons, financial reasons, demanding job, etc…but most of these limitations are self imposed socially acceptable excuses that allow us to say no to things we don’t really want to do without actually saying no.
I discuss a former chapter in my life where I was so ashamed of how I looked with scars all over my body, I made unrelated excuses as to why I couldn’t go on trips to Lake Havasu or beach parties. I would claim lack of money or too much work, but the truth is, I didn’t want anyone to see what my body looked like.
I love the road. I think everyone knows that with my magical road trips, but many people tell me they could never do what I do because they are afraid of “truckers,” or “strangers in rest areas” or “idiots” on the road…lol I always remind them how my road trips have always been magical and that the only time I’m ever in danger is when I’m at or near home! These irrational fears keep them home dreaming of places I go to see, rather than just doing them….while secretly reveling in their jealousy that I am doing it and they are not.
Some of the things I will discuss are:
- What is fearlessness and what seems to keep so many of us
- What keeps us paralyzed in irrational fears and how can we begin to break free?
- How trauma can make or break your escape from the fear prison.
- Should we really fear death?
- Who are you living for anyway?
- Does fear affect my body?
- If so, what part and what can I do about it?
