Welcome to Part 2 of the Courage Talks. If you experienced last week’s episode and many of my previous work this year, you’ll know that this is my Year of Courage.
I have tried to explore the definition of courage beyond just heroic and dangerous acts of valor. While this is certainly courage, I also wanted to highlight what courage looks like in our everyday lives.
This year I have been asking guests about their own personal experiences of courage. Many of these interviews happened after a fun and leisurely visit or dinner at my house, so the sample of guests is pretty wide-ranging.
In this second part of the Courage talks, you’ll hear the thoughts of people from different backgrounds, professions, and perspectives dive deep into who their courage role models are, what courage looks like, and how you can become more courageous.
Even after talking about courage, every week, for the past year, I still found so many gems listening back to these interviews.
I hope you enjoy this concluding part of the Courage Talks!

If you regularly tune into my work, you’ll have heard me say many times that this is my Year of Courage.
We often associate courage with heroic and dangerous acts of valor alone, such as saving someone from a burning building or putting yourself in harm's way. While this is certainly courage, I also wanted to highlight what courage looks like in our everyday lives.
Throughout this year I have asked my guests what courage looks like in their life. At the same time, during 2018, I have been asking friends these same questions. During a dinner party, or while people were over at my house, I’d invite them to step into my studio, where I would walk them through the same set of questions around courage.
During this two part episode, you get to hear their responses. Ranging from diverse backgrounds, professions, and perspectives, the participants of this episode dive deep into who their courage role models are, what courage looks like, and how you can become more courageous.
I am so excited to share this year long process and journey with all of you in this double episode. I hope you enjoy part 1 of Courage Talks!
