1 BIG IDEA
Silence costs more than approval. When you edit yourself to keep the peace, you lose influence, joy, and integrity. This episode helps you reclaim your voice and lead with conviction, clarity, and grace—so your presence builds trust instead of tension.

3 WAYS TO APPLY THIS

  1. Name the Fear Ask “What am I afraid will happen if I speak up?” Naming it breaks its grip.
  2. Anchor in Values Identify which Core Value is at stake. Truth spoken through values lands with integrity.
  3. Practice Micro-Bravery Say the thing you’ve been editing out. Small, steady acts rebuild confidence and trust

3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF

  1. Where in your leadership are you still holding back your voice?
  2. Which Core Value needs to be honored out loud this week?
  3. What is one act of micro-bravery you can take right now?

Speak up—even if your voice shakes. You were created with the voice you have to use it right where you are.
