Fear is born of a story we tell ourselves
"The coronavirus pandemic is unlike anything I have ever experienced, as is true for most of us, and yet what’s been grounding to me is remembering that we've endured and survived hard times before. I’ve never lost sight of the idea of us on the other side of this. The only way to get there is to keep putting one foot in front of the other. I’m such an advocate for cultivating courage by doing things that require us to struggle or be brave or persist. When we do difficult or scary things, we learn that we're capable of doing difficult and scary things.”
— Cheryl Strayed
