It’s interesting to me where I see and hear people talking about knowing your Why. Brené Brown was talking about it in a podcast recently. I was in a mastermind meeting the other day and one of the other participants started talking about it
LIFE
Free To Live Your WHY
The first time I remember hearing someone ponder what their purpose was, or why they were on Earth, I was a sophomore in college. One of my roommates was ruminating on the subject, and in a heavy tone tossed her ideas out into the room. The others in the room jumped right in to discuss her thoughts. I hung back.
Getting Rid of Fear — more thoughts on the subject
I’m using this video to continue processing and sharing my thoughts about the article, Getting Rid of Fear, which came about when a client who had just finished the course, Transform Fear Into Action, said, “You can’t get rid of all fear.”
Getting Rid of Fear?
“You can’t get rid of all of your fear.” That was a comment made by one of my clients after concluding my class, Transform Fear Into Action.

Knowing Your Truth: The How
A few readers said they don’t know what their truth is. They weren’t connected to their feelings and didn’t know why they needed to be. What then?
Knowing Your Truth — more thought on The Why
I’ve been talking about — in various articles — speaking your truth and from my perspective, your truth is your feelings, your collection of feelings. And expressing those feelings, I think, is important in living a more balanced, whole life. What surprised me, was that I had in my conversations some people say to me, “But what if you don’t know what your truth is? What if you don’t know what your feelings are?”
