About this episode:

Let’s face it. We’re all afraid. We’re afraid of asking for what we want for fear of hearing “no.” We’re afraid of being different, of being too much, or not enough. So how do we not let fear talk us out of what we want?

You already know there’s no free pass out of fear, but as today’s guest Luvvie Ajayi Jones says, the point is not to be fearless, but to know we are afraid and charge ahead regardless.
