My biggest fear is bees.  When I see a bee near me, I flip out and run.  I have a LOT of trouble making myself stand still to spray a wasp nest.

Im also afraid of public speaking.  My voice and body shake when I'm presenting something to a crowd, but I can and do make myself do it without too much trouble

I always trick myself to do those. I'll practice by writing out everything I want to say and going through the slides but then in the hours leading up to it, purposefully distract myself until "oh hey, it's time to talk" so I don't give myself time to work myself up.

Bees and wasps are different. Bees are cute where wasps are the a**hole. 
leaf cutter bees are really cool as they are about 25 times better at spreading pollen and will only sting you if you are literally crushing them.
