Quotes: “Courage is not the absence of fear but being able to move forward despite your fears.” “Courageous people have more faith (belief something positive will happen) than fear (belief that something negative will happen).”

“Courageous people aren’t fearless. They just have learned to embrace faith more than fear and move forward with confidence.” “The five essential elements: 1. Knowing how to assess your fears and limiting beliefs that are holding you back 2. Knowing how to assess you risks and make decisions with certainty and confidence 3. Knowing how to adopt powerful identities to achieve your goals 4. Knowing how to communicate and show up with confidence 5. Knowing how to own your achievements and promote the impact”
