Finding the Courage to Make Difficult Decisions

In this episode of The Brave Enough Show, Dr. Sasha Shillcutt and Nicole Trick Steinbach discuss:  The importance of clarity in becoming brave  Knowing what you DON'T want just as much as what you DO want  How collecting "data" of past decisions makes you braver  Embracing the freedom that comes with failure  Nicole Trick Steinbach is the Founder of Trick Steinbach LLC, the host of the Celebrate Brave podcast, and an International Bravery Coach. She helps women build their bravery and shows them how to stress and work less. After spending nearly 20 years working in tech, Nicole had become a Global Senior Director. She spent 13 years living in Germany, traveling the world, and leading global teams across all functional areas in over 25 different countries. In 2008, even with all of her success, Nicole realized that she felt exhausted, unhappy, and alone. Through coaching, Nicole discovered how her relentless pursuit of an ever-changing definition of "success" was pushing away her support network, deflating her confidence, and driving her to burnout. Over the next ten years, Nicole was able to build her own unique, gorgeous, wonderfully fulfilling life, full of connection and appreciation, rest and joy, safety and wealth. The key was realizing that bravery is a skill that she could intentionally develop and practice. Now she teaches women all over the world to build their own brave. Nicole's framework of clarity, momentum, and accountability helps her clients set goals and establish the mindset they need to sustain their success. Nicole coaches women to view all of their successes, mistakes, and even failures as equal stepping stones to building their brave life and career. When Nicole isn't serving her clients you can find her reading a new book, enjoying the outdoors with her two kiddos, and learning with others on her own podcast.    Quote: "Bravery is a skill anyone can build." - Nichole Trick Steinbach  Episode Links:  BE24 Conference Coaching with Sasha BE24 Conference   Season 13 Sponsor - Freed AI Freed is an AI scribe that listens, transcribes, and writes medical documentation for you.
