Some of us look busy, helpful, and always planning the next good thing. But inside, fear and perfectionism can quietly keep us from sharing what we’ve made, starting the conversation we know matters, or following through on the work we’ve already done. In this episode, we slow down to look at why we pull back at the last moment, and how God’s Word helps us take small, honest steps of obedience instead of hiding.

Sometimes avoidance doesn’t look like doing nothing. It looks like building the thing, planning the project, finishing the draft… and then quietly backing away when it’s time to let it be seen.
In this episode of The BrandFusionist Podcast, Magdalena opens up about moments where she shut things down right when they were ready to help others, because fear and perfectionism felt safer than being seen. From there, she invites you to notice your own “turtle shell” patterns: the places you overthink, delay, or keep polishing so you never have to risk failing… or succeeding.
Together, you’ll look at what Scripture says about discipline, fear, and being doers of the Word instead of just hearers, and why your safety isn’t found in staying small and unseen, but in the Lord’s hands.
Faith. Family. Future. Business with Purpose.
