Here’s To Fear! Ft. Ben Harris

“Fear is an invitation to your next level of expansion.” -Ben Harris

I don’t know if you agree that fear is a feeling that we don’t always like, but it’s a feeling that can also be very useful.

Fear is just a feeling, and it’s not a bad one. It means that something is going on in our life, and we’re not sure how to handle it yet. And that’s okay! It’s a sign that we’re about to do something extraordinary.

Our guest, Ben Harris is known as “The Fear Guy” for an uncommon reason— he follows it! You may wonder why someone would want to follow such an uncomfortable feeling. Well, let’s hear it from the man himself!

Listen in as I interview Ben about what is on the other side of fear. But first, what really is fear? Is fear even real? How does fear make us delusional and irrational? How can we say that fear stems from love? What is the right way to approach fear? And lastly, what possibilities are opened for us if we follow fear instead of avoiding it? Press play and hear these questions answered and more!

Fellas, please enjoy this episode of The Modern Man!
