Hi, I’m Alis. I’m a mental health educator and creator of phearnik!® the Courage Buddy™.


I make tools and share reflections for people—kids and adults—who feel fear deeply and want support without pressure or judgment.

I created phearnik!® while working through my own fears and anxieties.

Now I’m sharing this work with others.

This is a quiet place to explore fear, courage, and emotional skill-building—whether for yourself or for someone you care about.

If that sounds like something you’d like more of, I’d love to stay in touch.

Sign up to stay connected and you'll get:

  • My free Fear Less Toolkit (simple and doable practices)
  • Notice of the Phoebe and phearnik!® Fight BIG Fears book launch
  • And first access to phearnik!® the Courage Buddy

    Staying in touch is also a quiet way to

    support mental health and social emotional skill building.
