Mustering Courage: Interview with Lael Couper Jepson

I have been waiting for some time to interview this incredible woman, my former coach, who helped me change my life to do this work. Join me for this illuminating conversation with Lael Jepson of SheChanges about mustering courage, getting to the edge of fear, and riveting storytelling. Lael Couper Jepson is the owner of SheChanges, a Portland-based business that supports women in more fully unleashing their power to be architects of change – for their lives, their business, or as leaders within organizations and communities. As a certified professional coach with an extensive background in consulting and organizational change, Lael has worked with women nationally over the past ten years in her business, making a name for herself and her SheChanges community as the place where women take themselves, their visions, and their specific ideas for change seriously — but it in a way that deeply honors their own resourcefulness so women don’t wait to feel “ready” or “enough”. Instead they take inspired action, and trust they will figure it out as they go. And they do. Lael is passionate about storytelling as a means for women to not feel so alone, and has held countless local events such as SheSpeaks, Homecoming, and Mustang Sallies to inspire women to share their stories more publicly as a means to ignite courageous action. Most recently, Lael wrote about her own story in her book, Unscripted: A Woman’s Living Prayer. ------ If you liked what you heard today, I invite you to follow or subscribe here.
