Ep 42: The powerful Habit of FEAR: w. Author Scott Simon

It’s not easy to be courageous. Feelings of fear and uncertainty often stop us dead in our tracks. But what if you had the courage to take action anyway? What changes would you make to transform your current reality into the life of your dreams? In his new book, SCARE YOUR SOUL: 7 Powerful Principles to Harness Fear and Lead Your Most Courageous Life (Balance; December 6, 2022), happiness entrepreneur and founder of the global Scare Your Soul courage movement, Scott Simon reflects on his childhood spent running from fear - and his adulthood spent chasing it - and inspires readers to take small, boundary-pushing actions to expand comfort zones, harness their fears, and lead a confident and audacious life. When fear presents itself, we are deterred from the essential work of holding tough conversations, defending new ideas against the status quo, and standing up against injustice. Simon has helped thousands of people become more courageous in life, and his popular TEDx Talk on positive psychology and his science-based work of creating, curating, and leading opportunities and challenges for people around the world has helped people of all backgrounds become braver, happier and more courageous.
