S6 E1: Facing FearsThis may be one of the most important episodes we have recorded thus far in thinking about how facing fears can often be the impetus for creating positive change in one’s life. In this episode Alexis & Jerry have a nuanced conversation about facing fears through exposure.Oftentimes fear can keep us stuck in repeated behaviors, more comfortable situations, or even hinder our willingness to create positive change. When we turn toward, rather than against our fears, we can often uncover opportunities and options we may have never imagined.This episode traverses the intricacies of exposure therapy, neuro-developmental implications of avoiding that which we fear, motivations for change, and so much more. Alexis even opens up about a fear she faced with Dr. Reid walking her through a mock therapy session. He also pulls the curtain back to narrate some of his decisions in the process to share example perspectives from a psychologist helping a patient through an exposure to fear.After listening, you may walk away with a new appreciation for fear, what it may teach us, and what we can do to face it with guidance and support.Be curious. Be Open. Be well.The ReidConnect-Ed Podcast is hosted by Siblings Alexis Reid and Dr. Gerald Reid, produced by and original music is written and recorded by Gerald Reid.*Please note that different practitioners may have different opinions- this is our perspective and is intended to educate you on what may be possible.Follow us on Instagram @ReidConnectEdPodcast and Twitter @ReidConnectEdShow notes & Transcripts: https://reidconnect.com/reid-connect-ed-podcastReid, Gerald and Reid, Alexis (Hosts).
