Episode 8: The Fear That Almost Stopped Me
Summary
If you’ve ever found yourself holding back from pursuing a creative dream — this episode is for you.
In this vulnerable conversation, Kathleen shares the fears that almost made her walk away from embroidery, the moment that made her stay, and how choosing to start anyway changed everything.
Whether you’re hesitating to share your art, launch your shop, or simply call yourself a creative — you’ll find honesty and encouragement here.
You’ll hear about:
The doubts that almost kept Kathleen from starting Artsy Lyons
The well-meaning advice that made her second-guess her niche
How one tiny embroidered onesie brought everything back into focus
Why fear isn’t the enemy — it’s proof that you care
What’s possible when you show up anyway
Takeaway: You don’t need to be fearless — just willing. Your art matters. Your ambition matters. And the first step is yours to take.
