About this listen

In this intimate conversation, Dr. Sherry Walling explores our relationship with fear and why it is not something to override or dismiss.

Drawing from both psychology and her experience as a circus aerialist, Dr. Sherry explains how fear functions as a warning system in the body signaling potential danger, asking us to slow down, and inviting attention.

Rather than treating fear as a weakness or obstacle, this conversation reframes fear as information, a signal worth listening to.

This episode is an invitation to develop a more mature relationship with fear, one that allows it to inform decisions, clarify priorities, and protect what matters most, without letting it run the show.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • Why fear is often misunderstood as weakness instead of wisdom

  • The difference between listening to fear and letting fear run the show

  • Why emotional fears (shame, failure, rejection) deserve attention, not avoidance

  • The role of fear in helping us prioritise what truly matters
