The way you talk to yourself influences how you experience fear. By shifting your language, you shift the emotion attached to fear. Instead of saying, “I can’t do this,” say, “Part of me thinks I might not be able to do this”. The subtle change in language makes a big impact on how you experience the situation.

💡 Try this:
Next time you feel fear, pause and check your self-talk. Swap “I am terrified” with “I feel apprehensive.” This small tweak in language changes the entire experience.

📝 Track your thoughts:
Keep a journal of your thoughts when fear shows up. Notice how adjusting your language impacts your ability to take action. Small changes in your words lead to small shifts in how you handle fear.

A lot of people don't realize they are stuck in the “I am” or “I am not” mindset with fear - either you're afraid of heights, or you're not. But this binary thinking holds you back. Just look at this photo from my high camp on Chimborazo in Ecuador. The sun didn’t just disappear, it gradually sank lower, moment by moment. Similarly, I made my way up the mountain, one step at a time. Did I reach the summit? Nope. But guess what, I still got higher than I’d ever been before. And that’s the thing with progress - it doesn’t happen all at once. It’s about taking those small shifts adding up to something big.

💡 Try this:
Instead of thinking in absolutes like "I’m afraid" or "I’m not afraid," shift your mindset to small, manageable changes. Ask yourself, "How can I feel just a little less fearful today?" If you’re afraid of heights, don’t aim for total fearlessness - aim to feel a little more comfortable with each experience.

📝 Track the small, incremental shifts - whether it’s feeling a bit more at ease or noticing less tension. These tiny adjustments compound over time, and soon, you’ll realize that fear isn’t something you need to eliminate or overcome - it’s something you can gradually shift and manage.

Progress happens when you let go of the "all or nothing" thinking and embrace the power of small shifts.

Hey everyone! No business is complete without a social media introduction, right? So here’s me, taking the chance to put a face to the name and share a little about my journey and why I started FearShift.

I’m Jon, and for over 20 years I’ve been fascinated by fear - how we experience it, manage it, and can use it to grow. That curiosity led me to study Psychology, specializing in how the mind responds under pressure in extreme & unusual environments (which meant months of joining participants on underground caving trips for research!). During university, I found my passion for caving, climbing, and adventure sports. Since then, I’ve worked as a climbing instructor, become a Master Practitioner of NLP, and proudly serve as an interior firefighter with the local fire department - continuously learning, adapting, and putting ideas into practice.

Now, I’m starting up FearShift in Clearwater! While the business is new, this has been a long time in the making. The biggest takeaway for me is that fear isn’t something to battle against - it’s a necessary resource we can work with. And with the right tools, we can turn it into a stepping stone rather than an obstacle. One of the most exciting developments I’ve come across is VR training alongside traditional NLP coaching techniques, which has been incredibly effective in helping people build confidence and change their experience of fear.

Since we’re just getting started, I’d love to hear from you - what fears or challenges would you like to see addressed? Let me know in the comments! ⬇️

For those I haven't had the chance to meet yet, my name is Jon Wichett and I’m excited to introduce something new to Clearwater - 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝗿 & 𝗣𝗵𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗩𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗼𝘀. Whether it’s flying, heights, spiders, or confined spaces, fear can keep us from the experiences we want. What if you could reshape your response to those fears in a safe, controlled way?

That’s what we do at FearShift. Using effective coaching techniques alongside VR exposure scenarios (by PsytechVR), we create a space where you can build resilience, regain control, and transform fear into freedom - one step at a time.

My website is now live. Take a look, learn more, and if you (or someone you know) are ready to approach fear differently, let’s chat! Thanks, Jon
