This week on our mini-series around 'What is Bravery?' we talk about our view on the difference between bravery and 'faking it until you make it'. We believe bravery is so much more about living authentic and being open to sharing vulnerability, rather than putting on a 'brave face' and pretending everything is great all the time.

Brave Stories is podcast that seeks to answer the questions ‘what is bravery?’ and ‘what does being brave look like day-to-day?’. The world can be a scary place. Doubting yourself is normal. But when the going gets tough, you’re really only faced with 2 options: shrink back or step up.
