Face Your Fears week: Cleveland group challenges you to 'Scare Your Soul'

Happiness expert and Clevelander Scott Simon is the man behind a growing movement called Scare Your Soul.

CLEVELAND — Chances are you're already starting to feel those New Year's Resolutions slipping away. But there's a movement that started in Cleveland that can help you step out of your comfort zone every single day.

"Scare Your Soul really is a courage movement," Simon said. "What we want to do at Scare Your Soul is to really encourage people to push their comfort zones on a daily basis in ways that are gonna help them grow and connect and really lead their best lives."

He's challenging the entire Cleveland community to join in because "it's an opportunity really for all of us to push our comfort zones together."

The Scare Your Soul website and Instagram account are a great place to find ideas for small acts of courage. They can be things like exploring a new place, cutting the cord or overcoming a fear.

There's also an e-mail that you can sign up for that can help motivate you, and give you a new challenge every day.
