Fear Is My Homeboy: How to Slay Doubt, Boss Up, and Succeed on Your Own Terms

This is an excellent book filled with wonderful and empowering concepts. The author is funny and provides common-sense and meaningful advice about embracing fear that could better the lives of others; however, the book has careless spelling errors and a bunch of grammatical mistakes that cause the reader to pause and reread sentences. I believe that if it went through one more round of edits and revisions, with a new pair of eyes, it would easily obtain 5 stars and truly shine in the way that it's intended to shine.

How many ways can we say the same thing? Just do it. Get off the couch. Nothing happens unless you make it happen. How about you work on something instead of reading another book about why you aren’t working on something

I first met Judi at MPI WEC in Las Vegas 2017 and have been following her journey closely since then. I have been eagerly anticipating her book release and when it arrived I was thrilled. There were many favorite parts of the book but let me highlight my top 7: 1) I love how Judi uses a variety of quotes to start off each chapter. I am a sucker for a good quote. 2) I really appreciated the stories that Judi used throughout the entire book from her personal experience as well as observations she had from her peers and mentors. It gave the book a much more "real" feeling that other books which stay at too high a level and are impersonal. 3) I also respected how Judi consistently gave different mentors and authors credit when she discussed successful strategies and action plans she learned and practiced. Loved that. 4) The chapter on saying "YES" to a variety of opportuntiies that come to you when they come really resonated with me. I find too many people say "NO" and then regret it lately and this chapter hit home. Ironically, I have already been practicing this mindset for several years and reading it in the book made me nod my head and whisper "I knew I was on the right path." 5) I also enjoyed how each chapter had a theme and the final chapter tied all the themes back together with definitive action steps and suggestions. Excellent way to tell the story. 6) I could relate to the different times Judi would mention that even though she didn't have a strong relationship with her mom, she still was able to find a maternal role model and did not allow this to stop her from succeeding. Another very real and relatable element of the book. 7) Finally, I love that Judi is unashamed for her love of hip-hop (I love hip-hop too) and spoke about how when she finally embraced this love, she was able to really find her ideal clients and her tribe. Great quick story that makes me love the story even more. I highly recommend the book and will be adding it to my Reading LIst for my college classes. Can't wait for the next book!!

I read Judi's book in one day and let me tell you- it is full of creative, unique and empowering thoughts and ideas for embracing fear and not letting it control you! Judi's personal anecdotes and her relatable and personable style make this an easy read and I truly feel like many of her suggestions can be easily adapted and used by anyone to overcome obstacles and at the same time, challenge yourself to be brave. Judi and I share the same hero- Brene Brown- and I love that she incorporated strategies and quotes from many of her role models and heroes to demonstrate her personal growth process and how others influenced her path in life:) I could have highlighted practically the entire book - this is such a great resource for personal growth and I plan to read it over and over again. Thanks Judi! Xo, Renee

This book speaks to my soul!! I had a three hour layover, at an airport that is three hours from my home, today after a vacation with my son to see family. It was frustrating in the beginning moments but I quickly became grateful for the situation. If we hadn’t been stuck in an airport for an additional three hours I wouldn’t have gotten much reading done. It truly was a blessing in disguise the Universe telling me to slow down for a moment. Friend, I hope you read this book. I hope you soak up as many nuggets of wisdom as I have. If you could see my book, there are underlined passages, circles, stars and notes on the pages (pink pen is ROCKING this book). This book is getting so much love from me!! Friend, you get to choose how you show up. You get to choose how you respond. You get to choose what nuggets of wisdom to soak up into your life. Make it this book + soak up these nuggets. You won’t be disappointed.

Hands down one of the best books I’ve ever read. 10/10 would absolutely recommend. I actually reached out to Judi herself on her personal Instagram account and she sent a voice message back in response. She’s the real deal and I’m SO glad I bought this. Worth every single penny. The writing style is extremely easy to follow along and read. She is so relatable. I can’t wait to finish this book. It’s so so hard to put it down.

I am loving the confidence this book is giving me to BOSS UP and become a better leader but also to help me organize my days to make it all work! The author teaches you to protect your assets at all cost which are YOU! Just like a CEO protects their organization. This could be a quick and easy read to go through because it is so good, but I am enjoying taking it slow and soaking it all in. I literally have dog ear's and sticky notes of takeaways and quotes throughout each chapter of this book! I am almost at the end but I don't want it too! I recently started following Judi Holler on Instagram and watching her stories. Oh, I just love her fun personality!! She reminds me of myself and the gives me the energy I crave on a hard day! I am excited for what else this author will bring to the world next! Fear is my homeboy is a must read for any woman running her own business or being a successful confident BOSS! Anyone can take these nuggets she teaches and use them to move forward and grow!

This book is a fantastic read! I read it on vacation laying by the pool in less than 2 days. What I found most valuable was that the author provides very tangible information and insight on how to do the things she writes about. I appreciate that each chapter ends in a very useable summary that will be easy to go back to for reference when I want to brush up on what I learned. The book has a fun and positive vibe and leaves the reader feeling like they are capable and have the tools to make big leaps in any aspect of their life. I felt that this book is about much more than overcoming fear and is a great add to my collection of personal development tools and resources.

One of my takeaways is that - if you want to realize your dreams...you have to Slay to Play. You can't sit around waiting to be discovered. Or find the money. Or any other excuse. Just get out there and start Slaying. Fear is my Homeboy delivers all kinds of smart, immediate, action plans for turning your overall mindset around. Judi is funny, thoughtful, brilliant, shiny and fabulous and she speaks directly to you like a close friend, coach and mentor. She offers a clear roadmap for making changes that set you up to achieve the life you want and it would be seriously hard not to be motivated by her boundless energy. This was one of the few times I've read a self-help book and had a clear vision of what I need to do next - at the end of the book. So thank you so much for putting this into the world!!! Read this book. Tell your friends. Let's all root for each other and put some awesomeness into the world!

I saw Judi's keynote at Imaging USA back in January and it blew my mind. I pre-ordered this book and couldn't wait to dive in. Once I got it though, it was tough to stick with it - but in a good way. It really makes you stop and think, and reflect, and get out of your comfort zone. After purchasing the hardback, I realized that I needed to be able to catch up on bits while on the run. So I bought the Kindle version too. Between both copies, I've finished reading it cover to cover probably twice. I bookmarked, and highlighted, and took notes. I keep going back to it. In a nutshell, it's changed my life. Thanks Judi! :)

When a friend told me about this book I had to read it. It could be the best title of the year. What really impressed me was the content. Judi Holler understands whats going on in my head (maybe it's not just me?) and give practical advice on how to address it. As I read, and re-read, and underlined I kept telling myself "That makes sense" and "I can do that". Geet out of your head and into this book.

OMG....where do I start? This book is a super easy read!! I couldn't put it down. So many great take aways!!! So many practical things you can take action on today. Ps....if you want to get the full feel of her energy, listen to this on Audible. She'll have you belly laughing and crying at the same time. Not only is Judi hilarious but her book hits all the points. Fear is something we all have....even me. I've played small for too many years because I've let fear tell me I'm not worthy enough. After reading this book, I'm empowered, excited and accelti.g the challenge to make fear my homeboy. I am a pink Flamingo and no longer afraid of what others think of me. Thanks Judi for creating this book and workbook. Without it, I'd still be stuck letting fear run my life!!!!

Seriously....not kidding. You need this book. I'm only about half way through Chapter 2 and am already in love with this book. I want to read it book quickly and slowly. It's so good that I want to speed through to see what else she has to say....and at the same time, after almost every paragraph, there is something worth stopping for - to let it truly sink in and just let the concept simmer. I read it and want to scream 'Yes!' to so many concepts. You will NOT regret this book purchase.

What did I get myself into? I know, understanding that fear is my homeboy! I am hooked on this book. I normally read at least 10 pages Of a Personal Development book, but girl I can’t hold myself back from reading this empowering book. I am normally one to feel comfortable being where I am at, but ever since I started to read this book I been stepping out of my comfort zone. I have been focusing on me before others and happiness is evolving more than ever. People are starting to ask why I am so happy and I say read “Fear Is My Homeboy” if you’re ready for some changes! My favorite part about the book is that the author speaks my language, when you get it you’ll see. So take a step to make you better and make fear your homeboy too! XOXO

This book came to me at the perfect time. I have big goals for my business and have found myself letting fear of “what-ifs” get in my way. While I was reading this I felt like I invited a smart, helpful, yet honest (and funny 😋) friend into my house that was helping me acknowledge that fear will always be there, but how to embrace it and still thrive. So many nuggets in here. I LOVED it. Highly recommend. #fearbossfolyfe

This book was an easy read, not boring and Judi has a fun sense of humor. I usually can't get through self help books but this one I couldn't wait to read every night. And I never mark up books but I highlighted a lot of great nuggets in this one. Definitely one I will recommend for those looking for an easy to read personal development book. I'm ready to go face my fears. Thanks Judi.

I am a sucker for personal development books. I've read the likes of John C. Maxwell, Simon Sinek, Stephen Covey, Glennon Doyle, Jen Sincero, Rachel Hollis, Dave Hollis, Trent Shelton, Brene Brown, etc. - and I am VERY happy to now add Judi Holler to that list. I absolutely LOVED this book. Judi's writing style is so real, keeps you engaged, easy to read, FUN, and was a breath of fresh air for me. This book gives you a nice kick in the booty (in the best way) - whether you think you need one or not. And let me tell you, we all could use a good one now and again. This book is great for readers of all personal development levels - beginner, intermediate, and even advanced peeps like myself. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This book is so relevant regardless of what you’ve got going on! I have both the audio and physical book so I can listen and follow along in the book to take notes and highlight all the things! It’s broad enough to be applicable to so many situations and also had great action based tasks at the end to find more and more ways to invite momentum into your life (one of fear’s worst enemies) I highly recommend this in audio because it’s narrated by Judi herself! Thanks so much Judi!

Judi Holler hit it out of the personal development park with this book. Practical, applicable, relevant, and written in a way that is entertaining and educational, this book will remain in my permanent library. I have recommended it to my coaching clients as a support tool for recognizing what is holding them back can really be one of their biggest allies.

This book spoke to my soul! It was exactly what I needed at the time! I have told all of my friends about it. If you need a book to kick your butt into gear and help you become brave enough to take some chances this is the one!! This is a MUST READ!!

I love this book !! I am a book lover and am always reading something. I fell upon this book because of the hot pink color!! It caught my attention and I thought why not? I have fear and let’s learn how to make it my home-boy. This book has truly spoken to me. It has awaken me to my own negative self talk and how I let fear run my life. This book has been eye opening as I have taken lots of notes and take action on it. Thank you Judi Holler for writing this book. I needed this in my life. I am turning 40 soon and yep! Fear and are friends. Your tips, tricks, wisdom and simple advice has moved me to want change in my life. I highly recommended this book to women of all ages.

I loved this book so much! This author makes you feel like a friend having a friendly talk with her. She gives great tips and tools to improve yourself. It’s an easy read and one everyone who wants to be better in life should definitely read! I look forward to reading more books by her!

Highly recommend this book. I would say I have a similiar background as the author does and it was amazing that she was able to tie everything she does together and build towards the future. Very motivational and a good positive read. Some of the quotes I wrote down just so I can go back and re read! I love the embracing fear similar to Brene Browns embracing vulnerability and you need to do both. Read it!

This book really helped me notice how bad my negative self talk was and empowered me to make a change. Judi's is so genuine and funny in her writing. Occasionally some of the writing is corny, but after a few chapters I grew to enjoy it. I heard she is coming out with a workbook too and can't wait to buy when it comes out after reading this.

I can’t explain more what this book has done for me and my life! Taking fear and kicking it to the curb feels SO good and so empowering! SO thankful that I came across this book.

I cannot say enough hood things about this book and have told so many people to buy it! Highly recommend as it has motivated me to do so many things, one of them being “say no”. This simple tip has helped me so much and made me look at things in different ways. Buy this book, you won’t regret it!!

Judi’s book is a book for the masses. Its for your nephew who just graduated college, for your sibling who wants something more our of life, for your friend who can’t seem to find their dream job, or for your mom who’s now an empty nester and just feels stuck. Judi’s background hits close to home and that’s why I could completely relate to her book! I highly recommend this book about fear to everyone and anyone!!!

Great book for anyone wanting to improve their mental management skills. I compete as an athlete and found this book very helpful in helping to make fear a positive and help change my mindset. Highly recommend!

I knew of a couple of people that had read this book, and I figured that was a nudge I needed to as well. I actually got both a hard copy and audible. I am/was in a season of uncertainty and comparison, and we know how that can mess with our mindset. This is just what I needed. Little nuggets, or just straight up calling us out. Judi helps us see our true potential and that we cannot let fear win. This will be something I listen to over and over.

Fear is my Homeboy is a game-changer. For example, before reading Judi Holler's book, I would never dream of writing a review. She gives real-life examples to help you have a better understanding of how to defeat the fear that shows up in your life and career. She writes from a place of experiences and talks about fear she had to face to make to where she is today. After reading this, I realized that I am unstoppable as long as I take control of my fear. I look forward to the next book and will be purchasing the workbook this evening.

Love Judi’s energy and this book is filled with so many good highlightable, Facebook statusable, and Instagramable lines. I recently moved into a new job and I bought a copy for each of my prior team members as a going away gift. As I read it, there were so many parts that I thought about people in my life who needed to read it. Sidenote- prior to reading this book I’ve seen Judi in person multiple times and she’s an amazing keynote!

Doing something new and out of the ordinary for me was always something that I feared. All the “what if’s” rolled around in my brain. Especially the “what if I’m not good enough” or “what if everyone judges me?” Judi helps throw those fears and many many others out the window by reshaping and reframing the way we use fear! To use it for good and forward progress than for the brakes. I highly highly recommend this book for every household. You should buy it... like NOW! You won’t be disappointed!

This book continued to surprise me all the way to the end. I enjoyed it way more than I anticipated AND I felt like I was energized each time I read a new chapter. It's clear she is a passionate author and that translated so well in her writing! I usually don't leave reviews but it's time to try a #fearexperiment of my own. If you are ready for a change give this a read - it's great!

This book was my book of the month for November. Im so happy I read it too. Holler basically helped me kick fear out of myself as I am ready to level up! This book is a must read for anyone in business or ready to start a new career.

Ok this book is life changing. I read this in a very hard point in my life (moving away from home) and this book make all the scary things possible. She talks about embracing fear and welcoming it. I want to read it again!! I will ALWAYS recommend this book!!!!

This was the first book I read entering the new chapter in my life, new career, new journey and this book should on everyone's book shelf or audible. Fear played a major role in entering my new life and this 100% helped kick self doubt and fear to the curb, and level up as a confident women's. I filled it up with highlighter marks because there are so many good nuggets to go back to whenever you're finding yourself in doubt of any kind. Can't say enough good things about this book! Oh, and her podcast is legit too ❤️🙏🏻

It's an enjoyable read with great nuggets to help push you to get things done! After a while so called "self help" books tend to mush together but I found myself highlighting several concepts and tips in Judi's book. And definitely jump on the chance to hear her message live if you can!

Seriously!!!! This is one of my favorites and I love all BOOKS LIKE THIS!! Brene Brown, Rachel and Dave Hollis. Marie Forleo and Judi Holler!!!!! Judi should be in the same sentence as these authors! Her delivery is awesome, she is relatable and I enjoyed her book thoroughly! I just ordered the workbook! I can’t wait until it arrives! If you order directly from Judi, she will autograph it too!!!

This book has been such a light for me! Judi’s words hit close to home and offer such hope! She allows us to embrace our fear in a positive way and helps find methods to overcome our limiting beliefs.

Are you in need of a “pump-me-up,” “get my butt out of a slump,” “it’s time to make waves” kind of book? Judi has big energy and wants you to be a #FearBoss WITH her to make changes in your life for YOU. She’s real and gives you those real truths you hate to hear, but you know it pertains to you. Time to make fear your friend and not your enemy. Also- the pink cover is totally cute, bold, and a fun conversation starter. Had 3 ladies ask what I was reading in the airport!

The way Judi is able to explain fear showing up in your life adds so much great perspective. Her description of work/life balance is life changing. No one has ever explained it to me in this way and it makes perfect sense! This is a book you can’t put down. My type A personality made me cringe at the thought of writing in the book, but I’m kinda glad because I can’t wait to re-read and mark it up! Thank you Judi for sharing and proving that we live in a world of abundance! #FearIsMyHomeboy

I am typically a slow reader and prefer audible. when I was referred this book it wasn't on audible at the time. I kept promising to read a chapter a day and since it wasn't already a habit I kept putting it off. Finally I said, ok read at least ONE page a day....Now I am 5 chapters in and in love. Most days I read more than 1 page but even just 1 page a day gives crazy value, tips, and quotes. LOVE this book...I really would eat it if I could and I sent a copy to the coaches on my team to inspire and help them make FEAR their homeboy!

Judi Holler’s book Fear is My Homeboy has been a life changer for me! This book has been such a positive impact that I have purchased this book for my close friends and sales team! Through this book Judi is helping me to become a better equipped version of myself. I am fearing less and doing more. I completely recommend this book and following Judi Holler on all social channels. She is such an encouragement and provides practical tips on how to be more productive and make a bigger impact!

“One of the bravest things you can do is help others do amazing things” - this is one of my favorite quotes in the book. Judi encourages, inspires, and educates you in this powerful book and I can’t recommend it enough! If you’re looking for honest thoughts that will compel you to take charge of your goals, look no further! As she says “you are the boss, not your iphone, not your social media” - thank you Judi for sharing your message with the world in this book!

I absolutely LOVE this book and pretty much recommend it to anyone who comes my way! Since I’m a fearless travel coach, this book has helped me hone in on my own fears along with giving practical, easy to implement ideas to use within my own space! Judi makes the whole process fun, educational and SIMPLE to take what she teaches into every day life! If you need a good read to push past your fears, this is it!

This is SUCH a great read. Judi is incredible! If you're looking for tips on how to next-level your life, look no further than this book and MAKE FEAR YOUR HOMEBOY!!!

A must read for anyone needing motivation to kick start their life. I’ve recommended it to so many friends already (guys and girls). The book itself is aesthetically pleasing, both cover and inside pages. Inside there are so many gold nuggets. She goes through several ways fear impacts your life and how to embrace the fear and not run away from it. At the end of each chapter are ways to apply the principles. I will definitely go back to this book!

This book is such an awesome book!! I highly suggest it to anyone looking for a little boost of inspiration and get out of the fear zone!!!

I loved this audio book so much I got the paper version! The audio version has this cool ‘podcast’ q and a st the end of each chapter which is super cool too.

I'm a huge fan of Rachel Hollis' books and this one is now on that list. Very inspiring and motivational and pretty much sums up getting out of your own way and becoming who you were meant to be or do for that matter. Loved her writing style. Cant wait to read more books of hers!

Not only did I love the book for myself....I have been giving it to any friend I know whether they are just graduating college (my niece), business colleagues, working - or stay at home- moms, etc.. The message is universal and applicable to anyone who wants to improve their life!! Judi writes the book in a style like your best friend is talking to you which is so refreshing. It's not only helpful but super fun to read...you will not be disappointed!!

This book has been a staple in my own personal growth and in the growth of my team. Judi relates to her readers SO well and I feel like we’re BFFs! I recommend her book to everyone because there is something for everyone in there. We all deal with fear and it’s time to allow it a space to be in our lives without allowing it to stop us from crushing our goals!

Enjoyed the book. Filled with sensible and doable ideas. Several great reminders. The author is up beat and gives advice from experience and her own successes.

The content is GOLD! Love the layout of the book in regards to the headings, quotes, lists - makes it very digestable and easy to reference back to. I felt like I was underlining or folding the corner of every page! Love her language, tangible tips and courage to make fear your homeboy. My favorite analogy was the fear role model, the turtle - stick your neck out there, embrace fear and make some freaking moves!

I’m loving this book! Judi is a lively writer and she keeps my attention between her personal accounts, references to other people who have inspired her, and clear and concise advice. As someone just starting out in building their business, I get overwhelmed with too much info. I like her input on taking control, being your CEO, protecting your assets - and becoming a #fearboss.

This book is AMAZING!!! Talk about a smack in the face when you need it. It helped me get out of my comfort zone and realize that the only thing standing in the way to my happiness is me! I loved the chapter on the universe having my back and the what if syndrome. I constantly what if my life away. Not anymore. I am bossing up and making a change. Wonderful read for the girl who doesn’t feel confident and needs to be pushed.

There were so many great nuggets in this book that lead me into taking action with ideas that have been swirling around in my head for years and months. I love how she allowed fear to be a part of your life instead of shutting it out. She made it a guest of honor and taught you how you can live with fear but without giving it any power. I highly recommend this book if you’ve ever felt stuck or overwhelmed with fear!

This book definitely helps you learn to slay your fear. Even if you are not a business professional m, this book will help you if you constantly doubt yourself like I do. Judi’s writing is both hilarious and inspirational!

Loved this book and recommended to friends who also purchased. Great read! Great advice!!! Fear is definitely now my Homeboy.

This book is one of those books that you can read all the way through...and then continue to refer back to it as you need it. Judi has inspired me to face my fears and I’ve used it to inspire others as well. This is a great gift for anyone that needs that extra push to move forward toward their goals.

I highlighted the hell out of this book and refer to it often. It totally changed my mind set. This isn’t a one time read. It’s a classic you can re read and learn some things new each time. It’s an invest. Don’t second guess buying this book. Judi drops some serious nuggets and challenges you to befriend your fears. P.S. it’s a fun read.

I love this book just a few chapters in! It’s the girlfriend pep talk I wish I could have over coffee but with the current lockdowns I can’t, so I’m loving having coffee at home when I read it!

This book is incredible! I picked it up because Judi is from St. Louis And because the cover is hot pink! It delivered so much! I love how the book is broken up into methods, stories, tips, and ideas. It’s an easy and good read!

This was one of those rare good Books cover to cover. No dead space in between. Because Judy gets you into your soul you trust her and her excellent advice.

I have been battling anxiety and fears my whole life. Fear Is My Homeboy truly helped me to view fear with a new perspective. I fully intend to share this book with my next Health Group to “work out our bravery muscles”! Judi is so down to Earth in her writing, I felt like she was talking straight to me. Plus each Chapter ends with mini “assignments” to help incorporate the lessons into our Lives!

I absolutely love this book! Judi is so funny and relatable! This book def challenges you to take a look at your mindset and shift your thinking so you can and will succeed! I def recommend to everyone! And also she just came out with a workbook called The Fear Boss Workbook!!!

Love this book! This was exactly what I needed for my business in this crazy year of 2020. Definitely helping me find the focus I needed, helped me shed the people and things I don't need, and also discover what is holding me back.

I love this book. I haven't finished yet, got about 100 of left. Reading and listening to this book together is in my opinion the best way to do it because you really get a deeper and better understanding for this book. Also I love that she teaches freestyle Fridays.

If you have any kind of dream/goal or you just want to level up your life, this book is for you!

Fear is my Homeboy really resonated and hit home for me. Judi Holler’s experiences in life and how she really turned to loving herself are exactly what I needed to really feel the confidence in myself!!! I definitely will look at how I handle fear differently and take it to the next level.

Love love love this book! “You can be a victim or you can be a badass. The choice is yours.” Always choose to be a badass! Judi Holler is an amazing writer and speaker! I’m so glad I’m a part of the #fearboss family. She challenges you to face your fears everyday and boss up and become the person you were destined to be!

This book is part of a catalyst that changed my home based business forever! Judi’s writing is so well done you feel like your having coffee with a close friend. Thank you Judi for your wisdom!

Oh wow! Just buy this book right now! I’m a mom of two one of which has special needs and I’ve found myself in mental funk this year and this book was totally amazing! The humor made it feel so genuine and like listening to a sassy friend! I almost read the whole book the first day it arrived! Trust me this book should be a must have for everyone!

This book is amazing if you ever have that moment of doubt in yourself this book will help put that doubt and fear behind you!!! It’s a badass book from a badass author!!

Such an amazing book!!! If you’re looking for a personal development book to help you LEVEL up your life! Then this is it!!!!! Fear holds us back from reaching our fullest potential, and Judi nails it on the head!!!! I recommend this book to anyone looking to be better today than they were yesterday

A great read! Funny, inspiring, read worthy.

This book is the epitome of inspirational. As someone who struggles with self doubt and low confidence, I am amazed by how much my confidence grew with every chapter, and how easily I can share this new found bravery in those around me!

I LOVE how down to Earth she is and how she is able to connect with us and give us TANGIBLE things to APPLY in each chapter. Fear isn't something to get rid of, its a guide that if we choose to let it, help us live the life we were created to live. Thankful for the tools in this book! So excited to recommend this book to family and friends!

Absolutely obsessed with this book! It gave me the kick in my rear I needed to step outside of my comfort zone and stop being so afraid of the new things in my life. I just finished reading and I’m about to read it again. Definitely recommended this book to anyone who needs reminding that what you do matters and you can do anything!!

You always know when it's a great book when you have dog eared pages and used your highlighter! I love Judi's practical wisdom and stories. Such great ideas as Throwing a Mistake Party as well as conversation questions are just a few examples. It's a fun book that you also learn from- the best combo!

I started a book club at work and this was the first book. Several people signed up and at the end everyone loved it. Helped so much and we are using tips from the book to better ourselves and those around us. A++ for the book. Can’t recommend enough! We had people from the age of 23-56 in the club both men and women! Love it!!

Great little read with some great insights on what to do to make Fear your Homeboy! I am going to start my first fear experiment today!!!

I loved the book from its cover, in fact I bought it because of the colors, the concept and the graphic line and I was pleasantly surprised by it, in a simple language, it handles a powerful message that moves you to leave your comfort zone and experiment with your fear, I definitely loved it and I recommend it with closed eyes

Girl I'd come and cook for you too. That book is the everything in my life! This book helps release those self limiting beliefs you have deep inside you!! Best part by far,, Judi is a real warm loving human being!! She even left me a message. Now that I can stand behind! Really, just so good 👍 xoxox Sheryl

Such a motivational book! The writing style is on point and is really shining a mirror on what I need to let go of and work on.

The message of the book is good. But as a self-help book junkie, I personally found this book is a collection of stolen ideas and phrases from other authors. Half the book is just quotes from “Essentialism” and the other half is her stealing the same ideas (word for word) from Rachel Hollis.

This is a must read! Judi paints a colorful party, all while providing insightful and relatable content. I purchased this for myself and after not being able to put it down, purchased for friends, family and colleagues.

A must read or listen (I prefer both) for anyone doubting themselves. Judi shows you how to invite Fear to the party. Yes, you read it correctly, Fear and how to manage it when it arrives. If you’re ready to be brave and get uncomfortable Fear is my Homeboy is your guide and sets you up for success!

I have seen Judi speak at numerous conferences and refer to her talks often with clients. Additionally I would urge any meeting planners to consider getting her at their conferences.

This book is a game changer, changes life. Make fear your homeboy and you can do anything!

This book is exactly what I need to get out of my funk and stop being so damn self doubtful! She tells it like it is and it all just comes together. If you need a little push to get out of your comfort zone and do what you have been dreaming of this is def a book to push you... love love love!!

This book changed my life. I'm so grateful for this book.

I downloaded this book to Audible and totally could not stop listening to it! Everything she was saying was hitting me like a ton of bricks! I listened to Fear is My Homeboy not once but twice! Then I just had to buy the Hardcover so I could go highlight like every damn page. A Must READ book for sure!

Great read ! Definitely shifts my perspective! Recommend to anyone who’s having a hard time with fear

I loved everything about Judi’s book. I highly suggest everyone reads it. My favorite quote from the book is “If you want to do anything amazing, if you want to level up, if you want to have a comfortable life, you have to leave the comfort of your shell.” It’s time to level up and go buy the book!

I wish I could highlight this whole book. Judi's energy is so catching and I want to soak it all up. She speaks to her reader like they're her bestie sitting across from each other drinking wine. Every word makes me want to go out an be the best me!

Wow! This book really speaks to me! I feel we all focus so much on getting rid of fear, but Judi really teaches us how to use it to push ourselves! I am ready to implement everything she spoke! I reread it a second time to take notes. 10 out of 10

This book is amazing! Learning to use my fear as a guide but not allowing it to stop me from living the life I am meant to live!

If you're looking for a book that will tell you how it is, in a straightforward manner, this is the book for you. If you're looking for an easy to follow plan to make something happen for you, this is the book for you. If you're looking to strengthen your brave muscle, this book is for you!

This book lit a 🔥 within me that was so needed! As a mom with a demanding job I felt like I was sitting in this comfortable zone of just going through the motions. I started pushing myself outside that zone and towards being a #fearboss in my own life! Thank you Judi Holler!

I really enjoyed this uplifting book. I would recommend to ANYONE, in ANY journey. This is good for your personal life and business too!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about this book. I’m reading it for the second time and find myself learning new things that I didn’t catch the first time. There’s so much value in this book. And Judi’s tone is so real and relatable. I love it.

I READ THE BOOK FOR MY PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT AS PART OF MY HEALTH & FITNESS JOURNEY, AND LITERALLY IT IS A BOMB BOOK. THERE IS SO MUCH INSIGHT AND VALUABLE INFORMATION ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE IN A RUT AND NEED SOME MOTIVATION ON HOW TO GET THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF! DEFINITELY A MUST READ :)

Great book. Good for anyone who is looking to face their fears and level up. Teaches you great ways to tackle the things that scare you most. Judi is Whitty and charming and gives great tips and advice. Highly recommend for anyone that is a leader of a team, runs a business or wants to run a business.

I'm so thankful my team discovered this book and read through it together!! Judi is a gem and even spoke on our team call and blew us all away!! She's the real deal and full of honesty, inspiration and is the definition of a fear boss!!

Excellent book for self awareness and encouragement. Great for my girls books club. We absolutely enjoyed it!

Fear looks a lot different these days for most of us. Just received my book and I’m loving the dialogue she creates with her audience, the reader. Helpful, realistic and funny. I’ve been highlighting key points and making notes while I go. Can’t wait to say fear is my Homeboy!

Where do I even begin?! She took every fear and blew it out of the water, she took fears I didn't even know I had (hello procrastination) and brought it to life, she taught me how to embrace fear and be thankful for it! Highly recommend to any and all entrepreneurs out there, this is a must read!

I loved this book. It’s well written, and in a fun and relatable tone. I loved picking it up when I wasn’t having the best mindset day. It would always snap me right back to where I needed to be!

I’ve now read this book twice and it just keeps getting better and better. There is so much tangible advice that you can put into action right away along with tons of humor and wit! A must must read for anyone look to grow and fear less in life!

I was recommended to read this by a fellow #fearboss and I was elated smiling with each chapter I completed. I am in transition with careers and this was a great reminder that it is my game to play, thank you Judi!

There is so many AMZING things in this book that I want to tell you about that I don’t even know where to begin! So instead l am telling you that you HAVE to read it. So many great take aways!! Judi is a #Fearboss and wants you to be too!!!

The Writer has relatable experience. She's more like a mentor to me while reading the book. I love the way she writes. Her advice is something I can benefit from to excel my life. I, now, understand feeling fear is okay and I'll always embrace it for life.

Currently reading this in a book club, also listening on audible! It’s helping me own my decisions and become a fear boss! Her podcast as well as workbook are amazing as well!!

Love reading this book so far! She provides anecdotes that are relatable and refreshing to hear. The beginning is a little scattered jumping from one idea to the next, but this is definitely a book I will highlight and refer back to when I need a fresh perspective!

Absolutely loved this book! It’s like chatting with a friend that’s there to give you a swift kick in the butt. I knew what had to be done at this point in my life but I needed a little push to gain momentum and this book was exactly that. Enjoy it!!

This book is beautifully written as if it’s a girlfriend talking to you! Lays it out without sugar coating, gives you prime examples of what you can do or how you can switch up your fear based habits!! Such a great read!! Thank

I’ve always thought FEARLESS was the goal, but now I know better. Thanks to Judi! My entire book is covered in pink highlighter. “every time you choose courage over comfort, you are changing the world.” This will be a book I read over and over again.
