How to Trust Your Gut (Even When Fear Tells You Not To)

Hey friends, Chase here.

Ever had that gut feeling—the one whispering that you’re meant for something more? Maybe it nudged you toward a bold move, a creative dream, or a life change you couldn’t quite explain. But then, almost immediately, fear kicked in.

“That’s risky.” “What if I fail?” “What will people think?”

Here’s the truth: Your gut is rarely wrong. Fear, on the other hand, is loud, irrational, and loves to keep you small.

Why Trusting Your Gut Feels Hard

The world conditions us to play it safe—to follow the map, not the compass. We’re told there’s a “right” way to live: go to school, get a stable job, and avoid risks. But what if that map is outdated? What if following someone else’s plan is the real danger?

Some Highlights from This Episode:

🔥 The difference between a map and a compass—Why external advice can only take you so far. 🔥 Why playing it safe is the riskiest thing you can do—And how to reframe fear as a sign of growth. 🔥 How to take small, actionable steps toward your dreams—Without overthinking yourself into paralysis.

Your Gut Knows. Listen to It.

Fear will always be there. But so will your inner knowing. The key is learning to tell the difference—and having the courage to follow through.

Until next time, trust yourself. You already have the answers.
