Episode Description
A reverie on courage and the practice of being seen. I speak about the vulnerability of sharing our hearts and work, the stories that once kept us small, and how fear and trust can walk side by side. I touch on Week Four of The Artist’s Way (recovering a sense of integrity) and read David Whyte’s “My Courageous Life” from Still Possible—a poem that invites us toward the next brave, alive step.
In this episode:
- The tender risk—and privilege—of using our voice
- Letting outdated safety strategies soften
- Holding fear with love while choosing courage
- Returning to what feels most alive and true
A gentle prompt: What is one courageous step your future self is asking you to take today?
Poem credit: “My Courageous Life” by David Whyte, from Still Possible. Shared here with deep gratitude.
