About us
Living Beyond Fear | Birmingham
When was the last time you did something that made you feel completely uncomfortable… on purpose?
Walk through the city in your swimming costume.
Dance in the middle of a busy public space.
Make a TikTok with a group of strangers.
Turn up alone.
Be seen.
Look silly.
Do the thing your brain immediately says, “Absolutely not.”
Welcome to Living Beyond Fear — a social challenge community for people who want to deliberately step outside their comfort zone and experience what happens when they stop worrying so much about looking awkward, being judged or getting things wrong.
We don't sit around talking about confidence.
We practise it.
Our meetups are built around safe, legal and sometimes ridiculous challenges designed to make us uncomfortable.
Why?
Because life gets very small when we constantly ask ourselves:
What will people think?
What if I look stupid?
What if nobody else does it?
What if I go alone?
Here, we do it together.
Some challenges will be funny. Some will feel awkward. Some might genuinely make you want to turn around and go home.
You are always in control of your participation and nobody will be pressured into doing something they don't consent to.
This isn't therapy or a clinical anxiety group.
It's an experiment in living.
A group of ordinary people asking one question:
How much bigger could our lives become if we got more comfortable with being uncomfortable?
Come feel awkward with us.
Do it scared. Do it awkwardly. Do it anyway.
