A healthy state of panic : follow your fears to build wealth, crush your career, and win at life / by Torabi, Farnoosh,author.(CARDINAL)488954;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Prologue -- Introduction -- The fear of rejection -- The fear of lonliness -- The fear of missing out (FOMO) -- The fear of exposure -- The fear of uncertainty -- The fear of money -- The fear of failure -- The fear of endings -- The fear of losing your freedom -- Epilogue -- Notes -- Index."Farnoosh Torabi is familiar with fear. Growing up in the 1980s as the daughter of Iranian immigrants, she was warned to proceed with caution and play it safe. She spent her childhood immersed in fear-of rejection, loneliness, missed opportunities, and falling short of her potential. Of course, now her mother says, "It all worked out, didn't it?" Funnily enough, it did. Farnoosh came to the realization that fear never limited her. Instead, it has become a friend, opening her world and equipping her with the tools and street smarts to navigate life's trials and thrive on her own terms. Now, Farnoosh pairs stories from her immigrant upbringing with hard-won industry knowledge and data to show how leaning into your fears can help you take control of your financial future. With clear-eyed advice and an engaging, heartfelt voice, she lays out the nine most common fears that hold us back-both personally and in our financial decisions-and shows how these fears can be pivoted into strengths and mined for wisdom to help us achieve richer, more meaningful lives.
