Overcoming my fears of strong women and money making: How naming your fear, transforms your life

When you sit with your feelings, it might hurt, but it's the way to heal.


You know it’s important to recognize your fears, and now you’re starting to understand why you feel stuck.

Your fears are meant to keep you safe, but sometimes they come from past hurts, leading you to believe things that aren’t true.

That’s what happened to me. Ten years ago, I discovered one of my biggest fears: my fear of strong women. They scared me, even though I admired them. I felt nervous about getting to know them.

Healing started for me when I named my fear. Almost right after, I found a kind mentor who helped me. Meeting her helped me heal. I learned to connect with other wonderful women and built trust and friendships. How did I feel? Like a plant that got water after a long dry spell—I began to bloom.

When you heal in one part of your life, you can apply that wisdom to other areas, too.

A few years ago, I began my newest healing journey. This journey helped me bring my big dream to life. My dream is to live in a special country and support my family while helping other women find freedom from their fears and build their own financial independence. I want my breakthroughs to inspire others to heal, too.

Then I realized that earning money from my business was another fear for me. I started my business six years ago, but for years, I felt scared and confused when I tried to sell anything. I felt stuck and ashamed.

I finally understood that I believed selling was bad. I thought if I sold something, something bad would happen to me.

Through my healing, I learned that selling, when done the right way, is a way to help people. When I sell, I’m assisting those who need the solutions I offer to improve their lives.

As you face your fears and old emotions tied to past hurts, you’ll start to find a way out. But this way out goes through the room where your fears sit, blocking the door to your freedom.

Your fear is like a bully that whispers nasty things that keep you down. These lies can feel like the truth about who you are.

But just like facing any bully, standing up to your fear can help you heal. I started to see a clearer path through my fears once I named them. This brought me understanding on my healing journey.

Today, find a safe place to sit with your fear. Let yourself be in the same room with it. Watch how the path to your freedom becomes clearer. When you start to recognize the name of your fear, clarity comes like the morning sun. Bit by bit, you will see your past and future more clearly.

The pain you might go through is worth it if you value your freedom more than the comfort of being stuck. If it feels too heavy to handle alone, reach out for help. Don't isolate yourself like I did for a decade. It only kept me in the dark, while I tired myself out looking for healing alone. Seek support from someone you trust—someone who knows what you’re going through because they’ve been there, too.

This morning, as I was sitting with my fear of selling, it felt heavy. And I thought of you. It’s beautiful to see healing happen where there was once pain. Now, the heart that was stuck can beat freely and joyfully.

You and I are meant for great things; we are called to make this world better for generations to come. I believe healing is how we do that.

Love,  

Pia
