Summary
Whenever I find myself in a new environment (physical or emotional), I often feel lost and uncomfortable.
Whether it's a literal 'somewhere' or I'm stepping into a new venture in my life, those feelings often lead me to feel like everything is falling apart.
This happened to me last December -– and I decided to post a status update about it on Facebook.
Today, I talk with Karen Kenney about the process I went through in December that led me to that Facebook post and I teach you Three Steps To Take When Things Fall Apart.
Plus, Karen and I discuss how the Top 3 Fears keep us from being vulnerable to other people and how to have the courage to be vulnerable anyway.
