23/07/24 - Breakfast Bites: From heights to public speaking - does a phobia affect your life?
What's your greatest fear? We're all afraid of things, and sometimes it's not a bad thing. Feeling afraid is very natural — and helpful — in some situations; and it makes us alert to danger. But what if your fear of a certain object or situation is so debilitating, it affects your life? You may have a phobia. Audrey, Ryan and Emaad talk about the difference between a phobia and a fear, what the most common phobias are (even worse than death!), and how to deal with them.
