“Sometimes the bravest and most important thing you can do is just show up.” – Glennon Doyle

Courage isn’t loud. It’s not always a leap or a battle cry. Sometimes—it’s a whisper. A moment. A breath. A choice to try again.

Whether you’re in the middle of a storm or just beginning to exhale again, this one’s for you.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn: 💡 The difference between doing courage and feeling courageous 💡 What Dr. Stephen Porges, Brené Brown, and Bessel van der Kolk say about safety, vulnerability, and joy 💡 3 trauma-informed ways to practice courage right now—no matter where you are on your healing journey 💡 That joy is not a reward—it’s a right

In Love and Healing, Dr. Deb
