We are pleased to share this recap and recording from our July 2021 Women’s Forum program: Who You Can Be With 20 Seconds of Insane Courage!
We are so grateful to Brenda Knapp for conducting this 60-minute workshop and helping more women.
Key Takeaways
Courage is what allows you to act not because you are not fearful, but rather act despite your fears. Naming the fear and reframing your thoughts and self-talk are the first important steps to manifesting more courage.
1.) Learn more about the relationship between courage, vulnerability, and confidence.
2.) Make a plan for inviting more courage into your life.
3.) Develop action steps to take to remain authentic and step into a life with greater courage, success, and fulfillment!
