Statistics show that about 40% of Americans have a fear of flying - that's 1 in 6 people! And yes... as I'm sure you know by now. I am that 1.
I've had a few recent trips that really put me through it with anxiety and fear of getting on an airplane, so I'm so glad I was able to have this conversation with Kyle Koukol - an airline pilot and business owner who specializes in easing the public's fear of flying.
Episode Highlights:
-Recognizing anxiety and how to cope
-Filtering out what you see online, and what's actually true
-Interesting, lesser-known safety precautions airlines take
