Ever notice how bravery isn’t about feeling fearless—but doing the hard thing anyway, even when your palms are sweaty and your brain is begging you to binge Netflix instead?

Today’s guest is here to show us what it actually means to lead ourselves bravely—from the inside out. We’re talking mindset shifts, bold action, and the kinds of relationships that pull us forward instead of drain us dry.

If you’ve ever wondered how to show up more powerfully in the face of challenge, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’m joined by leadership coach, Marine Corps veteran, and corporate consultant Jill Schulman—and we’re breaking down what it actually means to be brave (and no, it’s not about being fearless or reckless).

Jill shares the science of courage—how it works in your brain, how it builds over time, and why it's directly linked to your happiness, resilience, and sense of purpose.

We’re diving into:
✔️ The two biggest myths about bravery that keep women stuck
✔️ Why courage isn’t about being fearless—it’s about being values-led
✔️ How your nervous system plays a role in both fear and courage
✔️ Practical tools to build your “bravery muscle” without frying your system
✔️ What it means to be smart brave vs. stupid brave
✔️ Why community, vulnerability, and mindset are non-negotiables for bold leadership

If you’ve ever told yourself, “I’m just not brave like her” or “I’ll do it when I feel ready”—this episode is a must-listen.
