Is your fear holding you back from living the life you want?
This week Steph & Craig are diving into one of the most universal human experiences—fear. How does it show up in your life? How much control does it really have over you? And more importantly, how can you shift your relationship with it?
They get real about their own fear responses, from those everyday moments—like walking through a parking lot at night—to the deeper, more ingrained survival instincts they don’t always recognize.
They explore the ways men and women process fear differently, the weight of societal conditioning, and the role faith plays in breaking free from patterns of fear.
Through raw, honest conversation (and plenty of laughs along the way), they unpack how breathwork, self-awareness, and a little bit of courage can turn fear into something less paralyzing and more empowering.
This episode is packed with insight, humor, and those “aha” moments that make you stop and reflect. If you’ve ever struggled with fear—or just want to hear two people navigate it with honesty, heart, and vulnerablity—this one’s for you.
