Fear.

"an unpleasant emotion caused by the threat of danger, pain, or harm"

We all experience the emotion of fear but ironically it is a very personal and unique to each individual.

For people around you - it might seem irrational or dramatic.

But for you - it feels crippling.

I'm personally scared of lots of different things:

heights

loosing loved ones

letting people down

'failure'

being vulnerable

being out of my comfort zone

being out of control

Setting up Kick on Coaching has been terrifying for me. I feel vulnerable and in all honesty worried about 'what people might think or say.'

I find myself now leaning into this discomfort.

How do I grow and develop myself without any risk? How can I expect riders to put themselves in this situation if I don't?

The negative nellies will be negative. Regardless.

I can't control what others think so why let that impact what I do?

As a coach, I take my time to listen and understand my client's fears. Together we formulate a plan to help make small, progressive steps so that the rider feels confident enough to step out of that comfort zone and achieve their dreams!

***Change and growth can be really scary but boy does it make you feel alive***
