Season 1, Episode 0: Introduction with hosts Jo Wiese & Anne Wicking

In this first episode, hosts Jo Wiese and Anne Wicking share the heart behind "What’s Fear Got to Do With It" a podcast created to explore life's challenges and how fear shapes our experiences. Underpinned by unfiltered conversations, Jo and Anne explore their guests' stories as they gently unfold, weaving between surface moments and deeper insights, so the story can be both felt and heard. With a light touch and thoughtful insights along the way, Jo and Anne highlight how storytelling can offer listeners practical wisdom, hope, and the powerful realisation that fear can be reframed as a teacher rather than an enemy, setting the stage for the meaningful conversations ahead.
