Woman Starts ‘100 Days Without Fear’ Challenge To Live Her Life To The Fullest
348Kviews
Michelle Poler, an art director from Venezuela living in New York, has a LOT of fears. In her ‘100 Days Without Fear’ project, however, she has set out to conquer them all – and document her experiences in short videos.
“What really pushed me to pursue this project was not the controlled lifestyle I left behind, it is the frustration of not enjoying [NY] and life in general to the fullest,” Poler writes on her website. “Since the unknown has proven to be so much more fulfilling than the familiar in these last months, I’m ready to let go, face my biggest fears, try to be completely vulnerable about it and enjoy the ride.”
Her fears may seem big or small to you, but that’s not the point. Her videos will hopefully inspire others to face their own fears and see that, where fear is concerned, the grass just might be greener on the other side.

Hear Hear !
Irene your coment is just the essence of all of this. Love it!
I thought it would be actual scary stuff - like something to do with heights, speed or actual danger. This is just 100 days of not being so spoiled all the time.
but it is still HER project about HER fears so who are we to judge...
If someone puts its project wide out in the open internet dont be suprised when people judge you. Which is fine as long as it stays civil.
And she is asking other people to pay for it.
Yeah my thoughts exactly
Lol....so this girl is affraid of being a day without her phone? or is it such a big deal to donate blood or dye your hair...shit tons of ppl do this every day..i wouldn't say a thing if it would be something rly huge like conquering a fear of hights or spiders but this is BS.
this isn't about your fears, it's about hers! Don't judge someone based on your experience and lifestyle! You may be afraid of being alone with yourself or pursuing a dream and nobody's laughing at you!
Maybe tons of people do that stuff every day, but there are also ton of us that have so much anxiety over what you call those simple things, that it is a very scary thing! And no, I do not think she is spoiled at all! Have some compassion!
Its' actually about her! She's obviously someone who never dared to do (normal) things other people do daily. I don't understand your frustration, please enlighten me!
hater troll. miserable much?
And additionally she is crowd funding it.
