Wake-Up Calls and Brave Choices

Welcome to one of the first guest episodes of Becoming Unshakeable! If you've been a follower and fan of Leadership with Heart, you're in exactly the right place. From here on out, Becoming Unshakeable will be the new name of my show—and I can't wait to bring you invaluable insights on what it means to lead with clarity, compassion and courage. What does it really take to live bravely and lead with your whole self? In this heartfelt conversation, I sat down with my dear friend Kimberly Davis, Founder of Brave Leadership and author of Brave Leadership: Unleash Your Most Confident, Authentic, and Powerful Self to Get the Results You Need. Kimberly opens up about the wake-up calls that changed her life, from personal loss during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic to making the bold decision to sell her home in Texas and move her family to Costa Rica. She shares how bravery is not about being fearless, but about making clear choices, standing in your values, and permitting yourself to live fully. Together, we explore what it means to become unshakeable when life throws curveballs. We discuss leaning into self-leadership, making powerful decisions even when they are intimidating, and discovering practices that keep you grounded when your world feels uncertain. Kimberly's story is a reminder that courage is contagious. When we choose to show up authentically, we permit others to do the same. If you have ever wondered how to step into your own brave choices, whether at work, in life, or in leadership, this episode will inspire you to stop waiting for permission and start living the life you want now.
