In light of the current season of anti-racism, she also answers the question of "H…

Danielle reached out to me to potentially become a guest expert of The School of Bravery and get interviewed on the podcast. However, after getting to know her very briefly, it became clear that she should be much more than just a one-time guest on our little podcast.

In today's episode, she and I discuss things like why risks are so important to feats of bravery, how your life can change for the better because of risks, and what it can look like to make risky decisions.

Because this month we're focusing on the bravery ingredient of Vision of Possibility, I thought it'd be the perfect time to invite Dr. Michelle Mazur, author of the brand new book 3 Word Rebellion to be a School of Bravery guest expert!
