I think this has been the best course I’ve listened to in Insight Timer. It’s very practical and concrete with steady steps towards understanding our relationship with fear. No scary leaps of faith to become fearless. Nothing that made me turn away thinking I can’t do this. I thank you šŸ™. I can do this.
