Replacing Fear With Truth.

Fear thrives in ambiguity.

In this episode, Joe digs into why hesitation, overthinking, and self-doubt get worse the longer you sit with them — and why asking for clarity immediately is one of the most powerful tools you have.

You’ll hear practical ways to interrupt fear before it snowballs, how to ground yourself physically in tense moments, and why prioritizing your own calm is NOT selfish — it’s essential.

This is about learning to replace imagined danger with actual information and taking your power back — one moment at a time.
