The world seems terrifying - each of us has experienced stories of fear, uncertainty, and pain, and many of us feel unsure what to do in response to what seem like overwhelming odds.

In How Not to be Afraid, Irish storyteller, activist, and creative convenor Gareth Higgins explores seven common fears, inviting us to change the course of our stories through seven habits of hope and action for the common good. 

How Not to be Afraid is ripe for the moment in which we find ourselves. If you’re feeling afraid, and want to consider an option beyond fight, flight, or freeze - an alternative that might actually transform our experience of fear into something better, come on in. You’re not alone.
