In this deeply personal episode of Courageous Girls, Terra Mattson walks us through one of the most common and paralyzing challenges we face as women—fear and anxiety. Sharing insights from Chapter 7 of Courageous: Being Daughters Rooted in Grace, Terra unpacks the difference between fear and anxiety, how our past shapes our responses, and why naming these emotions is the first step toward freedom.

As a licensed therapist and founder of Courageous Girls, Terra combines neuroscience, biblical truth, and real-life stories to help us grow stronger faith muscles—not just for ourselves, but for the daughters we’re raising. With honesty and hope, she reminds us that God goes at our pace, and that courage isn’t the absence of fear—it’s choosing truth in the face of it.
