#062: In today’s episode, I’m talking with course creator, podcast host, and author of “Do It Scared”, Ruth Soukup. Ruth's passion project and blog started as a way to redirect her passion for spending too much money at Target every week. Ruth’s story is powerful because of her willingness to own her fear during hard emotional seasons such as bankruptcy and divorce. We’re going to discuss how action is the antidote to fear, why you don’t have to be an expert to get started, and why the road to success can be insanely bumpy.
