What do you do when fear starts to take over? Do you panic? Shrink back? Hide? Or cry? What if you could learn to kick fear in the face? Listen in as Thea Wood discusses her new book, Kick Fear in the Face: Everything You Want Is on the Other Side of Fear.

Question Highlights

  • ‘Kick fear in the face’ is a true personal mantra for you. Why did you find yourself needing to put this phrase on repeat in your own life?
  • You made the decision to partner with the Holy Spirit and take responsibility for your vision. How did that change things for you?
  • A lot of times, people don’t really understand that what they’re doing or what they’re saying is really out of fear. What are some of the signs that maybe fear is at work in how you are living?
  • Your book, Kick Fear in the Face, keeps getting delayed by the publisher, so you decided to put it out yourself. Tell me a little bit more about that moment when you were like, ‘No, I’m done.’
  • You say that fear thrives in silence. So, the more in secret you keep your fears, the bigger and worse they become. Do you think that’s because we add shame to the equation when we don’t talk about it? Or do you think it’s because of the negative spiral of self-talk that gets fired up when we keep it a secret?
  • Let’s talk about limiting beliefs. How do you tell people to take their thoughts captive, so they can overcome any obstacle?
  • You say that our place of pain can become our power to reign. Can you just go deeper into that?
