What are some things you're afraid of?

The first step to conquering fear is to admit it! Bravery doesn't mean that you're never afraid — it means that you're afraid, but you move forward anyway, even in the scariest moments.

Fear originates in the amygdala, a region in your brain sometimes called your “lizard brain” because it deals with primal emotions, and everyone experiences it.

Say it out loud. Verbalizing what you're afraid of can bring it out into the open and make it seem more ordinary. You don't have to say it to anyone else, just to yourself. It can be very validating!
