176: [Solo] How to Use Courage to Make Big Decisions and Live with No Regrets on the TalentGrow Show with Halelly Azulay

Life is not easy and all of us face cross-roads where we need to make a big, scary decision. We all face the fear of making the wrong decision, but sometimes that fear can lead to inaction or playing safe. But if we use this clarifying question, we can usually move forward to choose a path of no (or least) regrets.

On this solo episode of the TalentGrow Show, the third in my three-part mini-series on courage, I tell two short stories: One, about a young woman’s career choice. And the other, about a decision that my spouse, David, and I faced with our skater son Guy’s schooling. And I describe how asking a magic question helped create clarity and courage for forward momentum and a life of no regrets.

Ep033: Courageous Leadership with Bill Treasurer

In this episode Halelly talks with Bill Treasurer, author, speaker, and Chief Encouragement Officer of Giant Leap Consulting, about common leadership mistakes and his advice for becoming a more courageous leader. They discuss why fear has become the “four-letter F word” and why courage (coupled with morality) is so important. They get into an interesting conversation about the best approach to the tension in leadership advice between ‘be yourself’ and ‘fake it till you make it’ and why being congruent is really important (and Bill “sings” its praises… literally ;) ). And Bill suggests we take a stance against some lessons that were ingrained into us in our childhood – listen to find out which ones.
