The Cave You Most Fear Holds The Treasure You Seek

It’s an old story… the one clinging to you like moss to a cave.

You hold many happy stories inside you, but the painful stories sink deep within, and don’t let go.

📖 Do you have a story about yourself that hurts?

Your painful story may bring up feelings of fear, betrayal, loss, or judgment.

For me, it is a fear of public speaking.

Public speaking feels uncomfortable to me.

But when I look underneath that discomfort, I find a deep fear of being judged as “dumb” or “too much” or “not enough”.

When in my 2nd-grade classroom, I recall feeling hurt by the ridicule of my peers. I was a high-energy child with buoyancy and cheer. Isn’t it interesting how we stifle our children’s natural gifts and talents?

I recall feeling shame when my father said my athletic and academic performance “should be better”, even though I was adept in school and sports.

I know the memories from my childhood that created my fear of public speaking. I still hold a fear of being cast out; a fear of being disliked.

I know where this story started.

Shadow Work and Transformational Leadership help me shift this fear. It is the work I do with my clients.

And yet, I also love this phrase, “The cave you most fear holds the treasure you seek”.

When you face your fears head-on, you allow your body, mind, and spirit to heal. You allow the painful stories to release their control over you.

So, I’m stepping into my courage. I’m moving into the cave and I just know that there’s a breakthrough waiting for me.

I’m using my voice. I’m saying what I once feared to say… in my relationships, in my writing, and on stages. I’m stretching into areas that feel uncomfortable for me. I’m going places I’ve never been.

I’m helping others do the same, and I f-ing love it.

I love helping my clients live beyond their fears.

I love witnessing leaders embody their untapped sources of imagination, productivity, and passion.

My work brings me and my clients so much joy.
