What if the fear in your chest, the flush of embarrassment, or the pit in your stomach… wasn’t a stop sign, but a green light?
In this powerful and play-filled conversation, I sit down with Becca Ploener—risk mentor, adventure junkie, and leader of The Dare Challenge—to explore what happens when we stop running from discomfort and start dancing with it.
Becca’s story is one of courage, movement, and reclamation. From whitewater kayaking to dancing in grocery store aisles, she’s learned that risk isn’t the enemy—it’s the pathway home to authenticity. Once burned out from the music industry, Becca has built a life rooted in adventure, embodiment, and boldness. Through her work, she helps women expand their nervous system capacity, stop waiting for permission, and take daring action toward the life they were created to live.
Together, we talk about what it means to turn fear into fuel, embrace the unknown, and find joy—even in the messy, unpredictable moments that stretch us most. Because when we stop avoiding discomfort, we don’t just grow stronger—we grow freer.
This episode is for the woman who’s ready to stop playing it safe and start living her most iconic, alive, and limitless life.
