1048: Transforming Insecurities into Strength and Action with Margie Warrell

We thrive the most when we are leveraging our strengths in service of something that's meaningful to us versus something that's purely superficial and people who thrive the most are doing things, they're working hard toward meaningful goals. And there is a lot to be said for recognizing that our fear constricts what we do. And the more we're willing to get comfortable, practice getting comfortable, being uncomfortable, then it expands us to do all sorts of things. Because when you're willing to feel anything, it emboldens you for everything. That's Margie Worrell.

She's a five-time best-selling author, keynote speaker, leadership coach, and Forbes columnist. With 25 years of experience living and working around the world, she's dedicated her life to helping others overcome fear and unlock their potential. Her book, The Courage Gap, Five Steps to Braver Action shares how courage is essential for every worthwhile endeavor. So you'll learn one, how to identify your insecurities and overcome them, two, the two dimensions of courage, and three, how to take action despite fears.
