From the #1 bestselling author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People, an illuminating book about fear—and what we can do to overcome it. An inescapable component of our lives, fear comes in many guises. In uncertain times, coping with these fears can be especially challenging, but in this indispensable book, Harold S. Kushner teaches us to confront, master, and even embrace fear for a more fulfilling life. Drawing on the teachings of religious and secular literature and on the true stories of people who have faced their fears, we are again inspired by Kushner’s wisdom, at once deeply spiritual and eminently practical.

A revolutionary guide to acknowledging fear and developing the tools we need to build a healthy relationship with this confusing emotion—and use it as a positive force in our lives. We all feel fear. Yet we are often taught to ignore it, overcome it, push past it. But to what benefit? This is the essential question that guides Kristen Ulmer’s remarkable exploration of our most misunderstood emotion in The Art of Fear. Once recognized as the best extreme skier in the world (an honor she held for twelve years), Ulmer knows fear well. In this conversation-changing book, she argues that fear is not here to cause us problems—and that in fact, the only true issue we face with fear is our misguided reaction to it (not the fear itself). Rebuilding our experience with fear from the ground up, Ulmer starts by exploring why we’ve come to view it as a negative. From here, she unpacks fear and shows it to be just one of 10,000 voices that make up our reality, here to help us come alive alongside joy, love, and gratitude. Introducing a mindfulness tool called “Shift,” Ulmer teaches readers how to experience fear in a simpler, more authentic way, transforming our relationship with this emotion from that of a draining battle into one that’s in line with our true nature. Influenced by Ulmer’s own complicated relationship with fear and her over 15 years as a mindset facilitator, The Art of Fear will reconstruct the way we react to and experience fear—empowering us to easily and permanently address the underlying cause of our fear-based problems, and setting us on course to live a happier, more expansive future.

"If you knock on Wakil's door, he's going to kill you." That's what Tareq Azim's guide told him, as they stood at the foot of the local Taliban warlord's home. Most people would let fear get the better of them. However, Tareq had already conquered fear. He walked up to the door by himself, and gave three loud knocks. Azim's family descended from Afghan royalty, but were forced to flee in 1979, after the Soviet Union invasion. They eventually settled as refugees in San Francisco. In the span of weeks, Azim's family went from living a life of privilege to Section 8 housing in the East Bay. Tareq assimilated into American life through sports, excelling in wrestling, boxing, and football. After graduating and playing football at Fresno State, Tareq's unease with how his family was forced from their ancestral land still bothered him. He decided to travel home and reclaim his ancestral land. Upon arriving in Afghanistan, Tareq quickly discovered there was no land to "reclaim." His childhood home had been blown to high hell over the course of 20 years of fighting. What Tareq did discover were dozens of children wandering aimlessly, waiting for inevitable recruitment into the Taliban or to be trafficked into a world of darkness. Tareq had found salvation in sports; these kids could, too. Specifically, Tareq thought the young women he met could benefit from boxing. Getting permission to train them meant a conversation with the local warlord. And that meant walking up to his home, and knocking on that door. Azim would get that approval. He would go on to train the first and only Afghani female boxer in Olympic history. He was 24 years old. Tareq returned to San Francisco and opened up a number of gyms to help others. Coming up with a name was easy: Empower. EMPOWER: Conquering the Disease of Fear is part memoir, part game plan. Reader's will draw strength from Azim's personal journey (a reflection of so many immigrants), and from the actionable ways in which he mentally and emotionally overcame fear, and not just quelling it-rather, harnessing its power to his advantage. Balancing Azim's narrative are a vibrant cast of characters and of case studies, each highlighting one of Azim's seven principles. They include Governor Gavin Newsome, former NFL star running back Marshawn Lynch, Representative Tulsi Gabbard, MMA star Jake Shields, and the owner of the San Francisco 49ers, Jed York, among others. Whether it's beating addiction, getting out of toxic relationships, or the pursuit of mental, spiritual, and physical strength, Azim can help readers identify their fears, and how to conquer them"--
