Show notes
Jill Schulman is a keynote speaker, Marine Corps veteran, and bestselling author of "The Bravery Effect: A Parable Teaching the Science of Conquering Fear, Achieving More, and Living Life to the Fullest.". Jill argues that bravery is not a personality trait. It's a skill. Most people assume brave people are simply wired differently. The research suggests something else: bravery is built through repeated action in the presence of fear. In this conversation, Jill explains why comfort is often the biggest obstacle to growth, what people get wrong about bravery, and how leaders can create environments where individuals are willing to take risks, speak up, and stretch beyond what feels safe. She also shares the three-stage framework behind her work and why bravery is a prerequisite for learning, innovation, and leadership. For anyone trying to grow, lead change, or help others reach their potential, this conversation offers a practical look at how bravery is developed and why it matters.
