Fear prevents us from living life to the fullest. Through her experience of facing 100 fears, Michelle Poler learned about the types of fears we face in life, and the process through which we are able to manage anxieties and accomplish great things.

Michelle Poler, originally from Caracas, Venezuela, is a graduate from the School of Visual Arts. What started as a school project turned into a life-changing experience. Her project, 100 Days Without Fear started with the plan to become a braver person. What she didn’t plan was to inspire millions of people along the way.

This was a project from 2015 but its spirit of empowerment is timeless.
