Voices of Courage with Ken D. Foster - Episode 117: The Courage to Make Powerful Choices with guest Laura Di Franco

 

Today we discuss having the courage and awareness to make powerful choices that empower us to live a happy and fulfilling life.

 

Today’s guest, Laura Di Franco, MPT, is a 10-time author, third-degree black belt, the owner of Brave Healer Productions, and a champion of entrepreneurs who want to grow their health-based practices by sharing their brave words with the world, who has three decades of expertise in holistic physical therapy. She joins me today to discuss the importance and impact of mastering body and mind awareness and how to have more fun with our fear, cultivate courage, and get over imposter syndrome.

 

We Discuss:

  • How we can learn to tune into our positive emotions and get out of a worry cycle
  • What stops people from getting in touch with themselves and mastering their mind
  • How our fears can be conquered by first mastering our body and mind awareness
  • Why awareness allows us to discern between survival fear and purpose-driven fear
  • Learning how to get comfortable in our discomfort zone and have fun with our fear
  • Getting over imposter syndrome and ridding ourselves of feelings of unworthiness

 

“We’re taught from a young age to think by other people’s rules when we should be taught awareness. If they taught awareness and how to get in touch with that place inside of you, how to sense and notice what you’re feeling and what you’re thinking, that would be a magical gift.”  –  Laura Di Franco
