When Fear Disguises Itself as Logic | Jane Bond on Self-Trust, Reinvention & Starting Again

Send us Fan Mail This conversation wasn't supposed to begin this way - but maybe that's exactly why it became so powerful.   What started as a casual pre-show conversation between two women quickly turned into one of the most candid and vulnerable conversations I've ever shared on the Ageless Glamour Girls™ Podcast.   When I started recording, I had no idea that somehow, we were also LIVE. Yes. LIVE. And apparently, my guest noticed before I did! By the time I realized what was happening, we were already about 11 or 12 minutes into some REALLY good stuff. She said, “This is all the good stuff!” And she was right. So, we kept going. And I'm so glad we did.   My guest, **Jane Bond**, is an Identity Strategist, Reinvention Coach, Realtor, host of the *Unpack Your Life Podcast*, and creator of the **Identity Rebuild App**. Together, we get REAL about fear, self-doubt, regret, people-pleasing, ambition, exhaustion, and what happens when the life you've built no longer feels quite like the life you want. Jane explains why fear can be so difficult to recognize - sometimes it doesn't look like fear at all. It looks practical. Responsible. Logical.   And that hit home for me. Jane and I actually met several years ago when her office was in the same building as my husband's. At one point, she offered me an opportunity to enter the real estate business. I wanted to do it, but I had plenty of perfectly reasonable reasons for saying no. Looking back, however, I can see that fear and a lack of self-trust played a much bigger role in my decision than I realized at the time. We also talk about the difference between confidence and self-trust, why failure is simply “data,” the pressure so many women feel to keep performing and producing, and why reinvention isn't necessarily about becoming someone new. Sometimes it's about returning to who you were all along.                                           Jane also shares her five-step identity framework and introduces the Identity Rebuild App, designed to help people examine the identities they've carried, let go of what no longer serves them, and intentionally move forward.    Luvvies, this one is raw. It's funny. It's vulnerable. And yes - at times, it gets VERY real. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we enjoyed having it.    CHEERS to Healthy Aging and Joyful Living, Luvvies! \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\__ ABOUT JANE BOND:  **Identity Strategist | Speaker | Host** I’m Jane Bond, a high-level coach and strategist for people who are successful on the outside but know, deep down, that something needs to shift.
