FEAR – The Other Side of Excitement

FEAR – The Other Side of Excitement

By: Keryn Young, healer and life coach

I don’t honestly recall having too much fear growing up. I mean as a child you think of the “boogie man” in the shadows or being frightened if someone jumped out at you unexpectedly, (the games we play as children). Excitement, well that was birthdays, Christmas, School Holidays, spending QT with Mum and Dad (being present in the moment), creating things out of nothing, dance and more.

As children, we are born into this world with a blank canvas, we learn from our parents, those around us, the world that we are exposed to. FEAR is something that is learned and given time, those FEARS are set and used to get us safely through daily life.

Fast forward to doing the adulting thing, fear comes in many different forms and with it brings on a whole new litany of things that one must process and walk through – of course, mustering up the courage to push thru the FEAR Fog to get to the “other side”.  Which, if done, culminates in a massive positive exhale, high five, doing the happy dance and achieving the desired outcome.

Fear also has this uncanny knack of showing up at the most inopportune times, when you least expect it and typically when decisions need to be made regardless of if it is a huge life-changing one or something simple like walking out the door.

It takes time, self-awareness, and the desire to learn what your fears are how they are integrated in with self-sabotage, what triggers them, to learn where they came from (typically a childhood learning), why fear still exists in adulthood, whether the fear still serves you and of course, how you can work on your fear to use it to your advantage to find the momentum to move through it and forward in life.

What Happened…and the Story You Told Yourself About It

Something happens. They don’t text back. They get quiet. They forget something you asked them to do. Their tone changes. They don’t offer to help. They cancel plans. And almost instantly, our brains fill in the rest. They don’t care. They’re mad at me. I’m not important to them. They’re being selfish. They don’t want […]

Are You Saying What You Mean—or Hoping They’ll Figure It Out? How Emotional Honesty Builds Connection

We talk a lot about communication. We say we need to communicate better. We wish other people would communicate better. We get frustrated when someone doesn’t understand us, doesn’t respond the way we hoped, or seems completely oblivious to what we’re trying to tell them. But here’s a question worth sitting with: Did you actually […]

What Doesn’t Fit Anymore? 10 Things You May Have Outgrown

Sometimes we stay with things long after they’ve stopped fitting us…not because they’re necessarily terrible, but because they’re familiar. A relationship, a role, a goal, a way of spending our time, even an identity can make perfect sense for one season of our lives and feel completely different in another. But admitting that can be […]
