WISDOM

What does it actually mean to love through fear—not bypass it, suppress it, or spiritualize it away—but meet it with clarity, courage, and compassion? Please enjoy my Loving Through Fear episode on Rooted & Wild. We explore how fear shows up in our bodies, our choices, and our relationships, and how learning to work with fear—rather than against it—can become a powerful catalyst for clarity, agency, and meaningful change.
