Legal Well-Being In Action

Episode 7: Fear

Episode Summary

Fear arises with the threat of harm in a physical, emotional, or psychological manner, whether it’s real or imagined. While fear is most commonly associated with a “negative” emotion, fear actually serves an important role in keeping us safe as it prepares us to cope with potential danger. Join Pamela Moore and Briggs Cheney as they discuss how fear has played a role in their personal and professional lifestyle. Both speakers share tools and tips on how others can manage the uncomfortable sensation of fear, but also identify where we can learn more about ourselves when we do feel fearful in our day to day encounters.
