A Guided Journey for Getting Unstuck--Because the Person Counting You Out the Most Just Might Be You

It's all been done before.
I can't start until it's perfect.
What if people criticize me?
What if my voice doesn't matter?
What if it's already too late?

For anyone stuck in the same tired, broken scripts fear uses on all of us to keep us from showing up and living out our callings, It's All Been Done Before (and Other Lies Fear Told Me) will help you quit playing small, one small shift at a time.

With incisive questions for reflection and practical prompts designed to help you shift your thinking, bestselling author Mary Marantz is the trustworthy guide you've been waiting for. In Underestimated, she delivered a knockout punch to playing small, going toe to toe with all the different faces fear uses. She created this journal to help you do the same. It is a systematic takedown of all the perfectionism, people-pleasing, procrastination, impostor syndrome, second-guessing, self-sabotaging, and hiding in plain sight that has kept you sleeping on the dream for far too long. It's time for a wake-up call. If you give Mary just 5 to 10 minutes a day, she'll help you stop making excuses, stop worrying about other people's opinions, and stop believing the lies that keep you stuck year after year.

If you're ready to name the fear and move forward anyway, you're ready for the It's All Been Done Before (and Other Lies Fear Told Me).
