“Do the thing you fear and the death of fear is certain.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

7 November 2019

Hello Renée,

Another Halloween has passed.  You likely saw some ghosts, zombies, bats, evil witches and monsters.  Did they scare you to death?  Unlikely; You probably even grinned or laughed -You knew they were not real. 

Why is it then that our fears stop us from living a full life, and accepting and even embracing the risks associated with living that life?   Those fears aren’t likely real either. When you tackle most fears head on, and look them in the eye, you realize you have the skills and strength to vanish them. 

Remember, you are brave, you are strong. 

Are you ready to take the LEAP?

Are you afraid?  If so, congratulations!  You’ve just identified the pool you need to dive into to reclaim your life.

10 Fears Keeping Us from What We Want

FEAR often stands between us and our ability to make decisions, take actions, and to ask for what we want.  

Below are 10 fears that commonly get in our way...

1. Fear of being judged.

• Needing approval from family or peers can keep us from going after dreams and goals.  Remember, they have their own life to live.  You should live yours!

2. Fear of rejection.

• Rejection just means that someone else has a different opinion.  Everyone is entitled to an opinion, including you.  But remember, it’s your opinion that counts when it comes to your life!

Coloring apps for adults: Pigment or Colorfy (offers free trials)

There’s nothing better to distress than coloring.  Coloring helps to build focus and to get creative.  When you are in a focused creative mode you can forget about your fears.   You might even find that a solution to your problem comes to mind.  Beware, it can be addictive and before you know it hours have gone by.  But it that’s the case, this form of self-care was likely needed.  It’s liberating feeling like a kid again! You can find coloring apps or go find an adult coloring book at your local dollar store.

Renée Blasky is the Founder and CEO of The LEAP Network Ltd.

She wasn’t always the risk-taking entrepreneur that she is today. Through several important life experiences, including being an "expat" for the vast majority of her life and sailing an ocean, she learned the importance and benefits of risk-taking and how to embrace risk rather than fear it! Renée also realized capturing life’s fulfillment meant giving back to others. So, she started her second business: The LEAP Network in order to share her experiences and expertise with entrepreneurs and potential entrepreneurs.  This includes "trailing spouses", stay-at-home parents or elderly care givers who have sacrificed their careers due to circumstances beyond their control.  Renée coaches existing entrepreneurs on ways to monetize their passion, revitalize their businesses and take action to grow their businesses.  She coaches those  who have sacrificed their careers, either by choice or by uncontrolled circumstances, to eliminate frustration, boredom and loneliness while becoming more fulfilled and happy!  By helping them start their own online businesses, they can get their identity back, boost their self esteem and once again be financially independent!
