Sahrit Freud-Weinstein - Roller-coasters, fear and mermaids

About this episode

Sahrit Freud-Weinstein discusses overcoming fear and building confidence through play and movement.

Sahrit is a dance instructor, creative entrepreneur, and mom of three who helps women expand their lives through play, movement, and self-trust. With a background in Dance Theatre Education and workshops taught across Greece, Africa, and Hawaii, she blends art, adventure, and empowerment — from mermaid certification to gorilla trekking — to show women that confidence is built by living fully, not waiting to feel ready.  Sahrit spent most of her life avoiding roller coasters — until she realized fear wasn’t the enemy, control was. She helps women go from Worry bunnies to Wonder bunnies.  Socials: LinkedIn: Sahrit Weinstein Instagram:  @sahritweinstein On Amazon: "The Girl Who Doesn't Go On Roller Coasters” (Book) Enjoy the visual here on Youtube
