Hey everybody! Thanks for tuning in for another episode of Life on Fire TV. On today’s episode you’re going to see real-life examples of my Firestarter group facing, challenging and overcoming their own fears…and what that has to do with being an entrepreneur.

I recently spent a weekend with my coaching clients and on our last day we all gathered on a bus and took off for an adventure. They didn’t know where we were going or what we were doing when we got there – somehow we managed to keep it a secret from them.

You’ll see on today’s show how excited (and nervous in some cases) people were when we arrived and they figured out what we were doing: we were flying on a trapeze!

In this episode you’ll hear

  • How life as an entrepreneur is like being on a flying trapeze. (1:50)
  • The power of leaning into your fears. (2:05).
  • Why you have to get out of your head and go for it. (4:30)
  • And so much more!

One of the most important lessons I wanted to share through this experience – and the reason it’s an episode being sent to you – is that every single one of us has fears as entrepreneurs. Every day of our entrepreneurial lives is like this flying trapeze exercise: we’re excited and we’re afraid.

But when we get out of our heads and get into action, when we actually get on that trapeze and go for it, we create the power that drives us forward. Facing our fears through action is what grows our businesses and, ultimately, our lives.

Developing yourself by facing your fears head-on is a vital step in creating the life you ultimately want. It’s about trusting yourself and ignoring that voice that tells you you can’t!

So whatever the flying trapeze is in your life, that perspective client you’ve wanted to call but haven’t, that webinar you’ve wanted to set up but haven’t, whatever it is stop listening to that fearful voice and take action on it right now.

And remember you don’t have to do it all on your own. To make it easier and get through the fear faster you can work with a coach like me and surrounding yourself with other people who are on the same journey as you, like my Firestarter clients on today’s episode.
