Society & Culture
Welcome to Conversation With Katherine and my podcast Swamp LandThere are so many different types of fear. There is fear of commitment, fear of the unknown, fear of the known, fear of the other, fear of success, fear of failure. The one quality that fear can bring into your life is a form of paralysis that limits your ability to move forward in your life. Fear can keep you in your familiar swamp land whispering how dangerous your life is and you are safe in your swamp land, even if you are miserable. Maybe, before I continue, I should explain what I mean by swamp land. Your swamp land is your dark space. It can be where your critical voice is the dominant voice in your mental space. It can be where whatever fear you have you can't figure out a different way of being. Sometimes we have been in our swamp land so long we call it Life. Your swamp land does not allow you to access joy or happiness. It can tell you the no one is happy or joyful.
