You’re Not Afraid of Failing — You’re Afraid of Being Seen Trying
Manage episode 516042559 series 2998452
I used to think I was scared of failing… until I realized the truth: I wasn’t afraid of failing. I was afraid of being seen trying.
That fear kept me small, hiding behind preparation, perfection, and excuses. It wasn’t just about failure—it was about exposure, judgment, and the shame of showing up before I felt ready.
In this video, I dive into:
* Why fear of being watched is more paralyzing than failure itself.
* How our culture makes vulnerability feel unsafe.
* The childhood roots of hiding our process.
* What it takes to start being seen without shame.
This is for anyone who’s ever delayed a dream, a project, or a truth because the idea of being witnessed before being “good enough” felt terrifying.
💡 If this resonated, and you want to go deeper, I share a private, uncut reflection on healing the fear of exposure on Patreon — a space where we explore the layers no one else talks about.
