Fear loves the future because it can stretch small uncertainties into epic stories. Today we flip that script with a gentle, evidence-backed reminder: what you’re dreading rarely lands as hard as your mind predicts, and you already have a track record of getting through the hard days. We unpack anticipatory fear, show how the brain amplifies imagined consequences, and offer simple questions that turn spirals into clarity: Is this fear justified? What’s true, what isn’t, and what can I do now?And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!
