In this solo episode of ReImagining Community, host Garland Fuller takes on a topic that’s all too real: fear. Whether it’s fear of failure, ridicule, uncertainty, or even success, these invisible barriers keep too many of us from stepping into our power. Garland shares her own journey of pushing past these fears, breaking down how embracing community and collaboration can make all the difference.

She also dives into her love of reading and how books can create shared experiences—shouting out The Solidarity Shelf, a flexible book club model started by her friend Marissa Garza. This conversation is a reminder that success isn’t just about what you know, but who you build with.

Tune in to explore:
✅ How to identify and work through the “four horsemen of fear”
✅ Why fear of success is real—and how to embrace it
✅ The impact of shared knowledge, community, and collaboration
✅ Why giving credit and working with others can help you thrive

If you’ve ever felt like fear is holding you back, this episode is here to remind you: you don’t have to do this alone.
