I’m scared:

I’m scared.

I’m scared of starting my podcast.

I’m scared of looking like an idiot.

I’m scared of the criticism.

I’m scared of the laughter.

I’m scared of failing to achieve my vision.

I’m scared of not living up to my potential.

I’m scared of not living up to my parent’s expectations. 

I’m scared of not living up to my expectations.

I’m scared of what’s to come.

I’m scared of the everything bubble bursting.

I’m scared of the ongoing energy crisis, especially in Europe.

I’m scared of people in power and what they will do to maintain the status quo.

I’m scared of cancel culture.

I’m scared of censorship.

I’m scared of the revolutions to come.

I’m scared of my words being taken out of context.

I’m scared of being canceled.

I’m scared of how powerful Wall Street has become.

I’m scared of how divided our world is.

I’m scared of our politicians’ thirst for power.

I’m scared of the future of our earth.

I’m scared.

Regardless, show up and keep trying.

That’s all you can do.
