Description

How do some people face their fears with clarity while others struggle with theirs day to day? Fear is real and normal but we all have to face our fears and overcome them. McKay shares with us today how to overcome our fears and become who we are meant to be.
 
McKay opens the episode with the story of how Jay Jonas and Heather Penney faced their fears during the 9/11 attacks. He explains what fear is and how understanding your fear can help you overcome it, and discusses lessons from Alex Honnold who despite his reflection fear, solo climbed the El Capitan. McKay concludes by explaining how to put on your power perception and face that fear, to feed the wolf of faith, hope, and love, and watch your courage build – excellent advice for all of us to heed.
