Fear and the Comfort Zone

This episode breaks down fear in two parts: the fear of writing and the fear of sharing written work. Sometimes it’s terrifying sharing pieces of ourselves. It’s safer to stay in our comfort zone where we are safe from judgment; however this protection can become its own prison. Using Kendrick Lamar’s song “Opposites Attract,” Lamont Carey’s Poem “She Says She Loves Me,” the folk story of the scorpion and the frog, and my own personal poem, I deconstruct the root of truth and why it matters to be honest. Much love to all those who are tuning in, thank you for listening. You can follow me on Instagram @ jorgequintanapoetry
