After her mother died unexpectedly in 2015, she decided: Fear may define her past, but she won't let it dictate her future. Here Holland describes her quest to renegotiate her inhibiting relationship with fear. As she tested the limits of what one can do to live less fearfully, she not only shows us how to grapple with our own, but invites us to embrace them as a way to live happier and feel more alive. 941 $a 1 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220104011101.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FF77232A6D2B11ECA6DC3EBB4FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
