124. A Healthy State of Panic, with Farnoosh Torabi
The world can be a scary place – some of our fears are very real and others are of our own making. This week’s guest addresses identifying and utilizing healthy fear as a tool for personal growth. In this week’s episode we talk with Farnoosh Torabi, a muti-bestselling financial author and go-to money expert, on what it means to be in a healthy state of panic. We discuss details from her latest book, by the same name, A Healthy State of Panic, how the surprising combination of fear and finance go hand-in-hand, and how a healthy fear of loneliness during her early college years led her to personal growth and finding herself.
Quote: “Fear can be a tool to remember who you are, and appreciate that so that when you go and do that scary thing, you're not as scared.”
