 In this episode of Your Next Move, Kimberly Brown unpacks the real role fear plays in your career. Spoiler: It's not something to avoid—it's something to explore. Fear isn't the stop sign. It's the signal. Top leaders don't wait to feel fearless—they move through fear with strategy. Kimberly shares five practical ways to reframe fear and use it as fuel to grow your visibility, speak up as a leader, and pursue bigger goals with confidence. You'll learn:
  • Why fear and excitement feel the same in your brain
  • How the 5 Second Rule breaks the hesitation cycle
  • How to use project "pre-mortems" to manage fear before it spirals
  • How to take aligned action, one small step at a time
  • How to build psychological safety to lead through failure
If fear has been keeping you quiet, stuck, or invisible—this is your invitation to move forward. Stay In Touch → Connect with the community:
