The most significant finding from Brené’s latest research is that courage is a collection of four skill sets that are teachable, measurable, and observable.
The Dare to Lead™ program focuses on developing these courage building skills through workshops, trainings, and coaching to help individuals, teams, and organizations move from armored leadership to daring leadership.
Individuals who successfully complete the full 24-hour Dare to Lead™ program will receive a certificate of completion and are allowed to put the Dare to Lead Trained badge on their LinkedIn account.
All components of this training will be delivered virtually, via Zoom.

“When we Dare to Lead, we don’t pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don’t see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it and work to align authority and accountability. We don’t avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into the vulnerability that’s necessary to do good work.”
Brené defines a leader as ‘anyone who takes responsibility for finding the potential in people and processes and has the courage to develop that potential.’ So essentially, Dare to Lead™ is applicable to anyone and everyone!
I’ve trained over 750 people, including Business Owners, Board Members, C-Suite Executives, Middle Managers, Emerging Leaders, Entrepreneurs and administrative staff from 25+ industries and 7+ countries. I ‘ve also welcomed Principals, Educators, University Students, Disability Support Workers, Executive and Life Coaches, Not-For-Proft employees and even Parents.
Without a doubt, my favourite trainings are the ones where we have an extensive breadth and depth of experience, ages, expertise and backgrounds in the room – a melting pot of different perspectives, ideas, ways of doing things, challenges… makes for very meaningful discussions and rich ‘aha’ moments.

Why does my Dare to Lead™ training hit different to other Facilitators?
I weave in somatic practices — breathwork, movement, and mini meditations — to help you arrive grounded, calm, and fully present.
I bring a unique blend of expertise, drawing on Emotional Intelligence, Neuroscience, and Conversational Intelligence to make the concepts tangible and actionable.
I invite powerful voices into the room to help the learning land deeper, faster, so you leave with insights that truly stick.
Still unsure? Here’s my mic-drop moment.
Four (4) reasons why you won’t regret doing Dare to Lead™:
You’ll put courage into action: This isn’t about motivational quotes or pep talks - Dare to Lead™ helps you actually face the tough stuff; hard conversations, tricky decisions, and moments where you normally avoid.
You’ll understand yourself more clearly: You’ll learn more about what really drives you, what holds you back, and how you show up (for better or worse). This kind of clarity makes your choices easier and your presence stronger.
You’ll recieve practical tools you can actually use: Everything you learn is designed to make a difference right now. No jargon, no fluff - just real strategies that help you lead with more grounded confidence.
It might open doors: Having Dare to Lead™ on your CV shows you’re serious about growth, self-awareness, and authentic leadership. It’s often a conversation starter, a credibility booster, and yes - sometimes a door opener for promotions or new roles.
“You cannot get to courage without rumbling with vulnerability. Showing up, being seen, and living with our hearts open is the only path to meaningful connection, innovation, and impact. Dare to Lead gives you the tools, the language, and the courage to do the work that real leadership demands—so you can lead with clarity, empathy, and resilience.”
