Podcasts about bravery

Great accomplishments require sacrifice and commitment. It's okay to take breaks along the way. Don't rest too long or run the risk of being accused of "resting on your laurels." Happy New Year, everyone! I wish you health, fulfillment and success in 2026 and beyond! 

In this episode, Lydia shares her recovery story and the moments of courage it took to break long standing patterns around food, exercise, and control. After years of disordered eating, inconsistent cycles, and being told she was pre-menopausal, Lydia struggled to accept that HA could apply to her, especially since she didn't relate to the “typical” HA story.Skeptical but encouraged by her husband, she joined our Bootcamp and found the clarity and direction she had been missing. That led her into the Restore Program, where she received the structure, support, and education she needed to heal both physically and mentally, regain her cycle, and release the final grips of her eating disorder. This episode is an honest look at what recovery can look like when you stop doing it alone.Register for Bootcamp | Starts January 12th 2026https://thehasociety.com/bootcampApply for the Restore Your Fertility Group Program | Starts January 19th 2026https://thehasociety.com/restore-liveWork 1:1 with us to get your period backhttp://thehasociety.com/coachingVisit us on YouTubehttps://youtube.com/c/danisheriffFollow us on IGhttp://instagram.com/thehasocietyhttp://instagram.com/danisheriffThe Content is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

The Israelis say the organisations must vet their staff more thoroughly.Plus: our political editor Chris Mason reflects on the prospects for Labour and the Prime Minister in 2026.

Jill Schulman is a former U.S. Marine Corps officer, leadership expert, and founder of Breakthrough Leadership Group. Her new book, The Bravery Effect, offers a science-backed approach to building courage. In this episode, she and Ryan go deep on what it means to run toward hard things instead of away from them. Jill shares the story of how a Minnesota kid who looked like Elle Woods became the top Marine in her officer class, how bravery became the throughline of her work, and why so many people confuse discomfort with failure. Together, they unpack the mindset shifts that unlock transformation, the self-talk that separates progress from paralysis, and the personal leap Jill is making right now as she doubles down on her mission.

As we close out the year, this holiday replay of Overpowering Emotions focuses on helping kids reflect on how far they've come and set resilience intentions for the year ahead without pressure, perfectionism, or overwhelm. Dr. Caroline talks about why small victories matter, how to help kids notice their own growth, and how to set one or two realistic intentions that actually stick. You'll hear how to make these conversations feel collaborative instead of corrective, how to invite kids into the process as leaders of their own growth, and how adults can act as supportive consultants rather than fixers. This episode is for parents, educators, and professionals who want goal-setting to build kids' confidence, emotional regulation, and follow-through.

In this episode of The Voices of War, Maz speaks with Brigadier (Ret.) Dan Fortune, DSC and Bar, a retired SASR commander and one of Australia's most decorated special operations officers, reflecting on leadership, accountability, and the human cost of Australia's war in Afghanistan. Dan served extensively within SASR Sabre Squadrons as both an enlisted operator and later a commissioned officer. His career includes multiple combat deployments to Afghanistan, senior targeting and command roles, counter-terrorism operations, combat freefall missions, and leadership appointments within Australian and NATO Special Operations Task Groups. He also served alongside US Tier One special forces and commanded the ADF Tactical Assault Group during the Sydney Olympics. Building on themes raised in the award-winning documentary Bravery and Betrayal and Episode 1 on this topic with Vando and Brett, this conversation explores the effects of relentless operational tempo, repeated rotations, and prolonged exposure to violence on moral judgement and decision-making. Dan discusses how cultural mismatch and partner force dynamics shaped operational realities on the ground, including green-on-blue incidents and force protection failures. The episode examines the conduct and consequences of the IGADF and Brereton processes, including findings later characterised by the Royal Commission as ‘weaponised injustice'. Dan reflects on how bureaucratic risk aversion, strategic distance, and institutional self-protection displaced accountability downward, leaving tactical operators to absorb blame, reputational damage, and long-term moral injury. Rather than focusing on individual wrongdoing, this episode interrogates systems: how wars are managed from afar, how leadership decisions cascade, and how justice, recognition, and responsibility are applied after conflict. It offers a sober, first-hand perspective on command, culture, and the enduring costs of a war of choice. Key Moments: DSC and Bar SASR commander reveals moral compass shift in combat Civilian casualties & how tolerance hardened over deployments Fat Lady's Arms hypocrisy: PMs drank, troops demonized IGADF as weaponized injustice - Royal Commission critique Green-on-blue murders & partner force cultural clashes O6 and below values vs One Star and above interests: Leadership cowardice exposed Healing through truth: Veteran recognition & future lessons

In this episode, our host Helena Clayton is joined by coach, supervisor and coach trainer, Ian Mitchell for a rich and thoughtful conversation about the place of love in coaching. Ian shares his journey from the financial sector into coaching and supervision, alongside insights from his research into spirituality and love in leadership. Together, they explore what it means to bring love, intimacy, and tenderness consciously into coaching relationships, and why these qualities matter in work with leaders and coaches, particularly in our troubled world where the desire for meaning and purpose, over performance is growing.   The discussion centres on the lived experience of coaching rather than technique — highlighting mutuality between coach and client, the courage required to stay present with vulnerability, and the role of porous boundaries in enabling genuine human connection. Drawing on influences such as Martin Buber, adult development theory, and therapeutic perspectives, Helena and Ian reflect on how a coach's inner world, reflexivity, and willingness to engage with shadow shape the depth and impact of coaching conversations.   You will learn:   ·       The role of love, intimacy, and tenderness in shaping our coaching stance ·       How love is expressed through a coach's action logics and developmental capacity ·       About mutuality between coach and client and establishing porous boundaries   'For me, a revolution of tenderness would be great in the work that we do.'   Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and leave us a review!

In this episode of ‘The Voices of War', Maz sits down with two former Australian special operations officers whose careers unfolded at the sharp end of Australia's longest war in Afghanistan. Vando served 24 years in the Australian Army, including 16 in special operations with the Special Air Service Regiment (SASR). Across 10 deployments to Iraq, East Timor, the Solomon Islands, North Africa and three tours of Afghanistan, he held command at troop, squadron and senior staff levels, carrying responsibility across tactical and operational decision-making within the Special Operations Task Group (SOTG). Brett came into special operations through law and intelligence. He first served as the principal intelligence officer (S2) at 1 Commando Regiment and later as the S2 for SASR, before transferring to the Legal Corps. In that role, he advised special operations forces on the laws of armed conflict, rules of engagement, and some of the most complex legal and ethical challenges of the Afghanistan war. His five deployments included Kosovo, three tours of East Timor and an extended tour of Afghanistan. Together, they reflect on their involvement in the award-winning documentary ‘Bravery and Betrayal', unpacking how sustained operational tempo, political decision-making, legal constraints, and leadership silence shaped the war in Afghanistan and what those choices cost individuals, families, veterans, and institutions. This is a conversation about systems, not slogans; about war as it was lived, not how it was sold. Key Moments: - Why special forces became the ‘force of choice' - Endless rotations and the absence of genuine rest - The impact of ‘catch and release' policy on decision-making - How killing became routine over time - The human and institutional fallout of the IGADF inquiry - Moral injury and leadership silence that hurt deepest - Why their story matters now Resources & Links ‘Bravery and Betrayal' documentary WEBSITE https://wanderingwarriors.org/bravery-betrayal-the-documentary/ BRAVERY & BETRAYAL 2025 | Trailer https://youtu.be/-3rS0h-pjqc?si=4_zStLj4KxR7w1xL STREAMING Madman Streaming https://www.madman.com.au/bravery-and-betrayal/ Prime https://www.primevideo.com/region/fe/detail/0I6EPX8QDL0CP8HN9HQTSENWY5?ref_=atv_sr_fle_c_Tn74RA_1_1_ Apple TV https://tv.apple.com/au/movie/bravery-and-betrayal/umc.cmc.1vql2nd3lpc381hnq1xjmxjcx Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuzpNCIB_P0 Fetch https://www.fetchtv.com.au/movie/details/3011300/bravery--betrayal Docplay https://www.docplay.com/shows/bravery-betrayal Vimeo https://vimeo.com/ondemand/braverybetrayal/1129397949 DONATE https://wandering-warriors.mygiveeasy.com/bravery-betrayal/donate

In this life we can take so many things for granted. But let's never forget the source of everything good.

In this engaging conversation, Jason Graystone shares his journey to financial freedom, achieved before the age of 30. He discusses the importance of understanding financial independence versus true financial freedom, emphasising the role of mental freedom in achieving a fulfilling life. Jason reflects on the inevitability of failure and the lessons learned from it, as well as the shifts in perspective that come with personal growth. He highlights the significance of bravery and boldness in pursuing one's true self and living a brilliant life, encouraging listeners to embrace their unique journeys. Jason explains why: Financial freedom is achievable regardless of background. Mental freedom is crucial for true happiness. Failure is a lesson, not an endpoint. Investing in oneself is key to growth. Understanding your values leads to clarity. You can monetise your passions today. Bravery is essential for personal success. Keep pushing through challenges to succeed. Success is a journey, not a destination. Building strong relationships is vital for fulfilment  Jason Graystone - https://jasongraystone.com/ This episode is living proof that no matter where you're starting from — or what life throws at you — it's never too late to be brave, bold, and unlock your inner brilliant.

Entire industries have changed the world by making our lives easier. But the easy way isn't always the best way. 

Christmas is a wonderful time of year. People are more courteous. They smile more. It is my wish that the light of this season would shine all year long. 

We talk to ourselves all day long. Be sure that you are having honest, relevant, helpful conversations. 

There may be something about your life you wish to change. You can, but you need more than willpower alone. 

In this episode, Tommy is joined by bravery expert, leadership developer, and author Jill Schulman to unpack The Bravery Effect—the idea that bravery isn't something you're born with, but something you can train. Jill shares her unconventional path from Marine Corps officer to positive psychology expert, blending personal stories, scientific research, and practical tools to show that courage is a learnable skill.Together, they explore how bravery drives personal and professional growth, why discomfort is essential, how mindset shapes action, and why surrounding yourself with the right people can make you braver than you ever imagined. Whether you're facing a tough decision, stuck in a rut, or seeking a more courageous life, this conversation offers a roadmap toward becoming who you were meant to be.Key TakeawaysBravery is not innate — it's a skill you can learn and strengthen.Choosing discomfort is often the doorway to growth.A supportive community (“your brave tribe”) elevates your bravery.Bravery = voluntary action in the presence of fear toward a worthwhile goal.Small acts of “micro-bravery” compound into high confidence.Mindset is foundational — especially growth mindset and stress-is-enhancing mindset.Planning and pre-deciding your actions prevent fear from talking you out of progress.Some brave actions involve letting go, not just taking on more.Bravery is a strategy, not just a feeling.Every person has an area where they can take the next brave step.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Bravery03:07 Jill's Journey & The Science of Bravery05:50 The Definition and Importance of Bravery12:07 Building Bravery as a Muscle17:50 The Role of Comfort and Discomfort24:02 Micro-Bravery in Everyday Life29:41 Mindset & Stress Management35:48 Taking Action & Planning for Bravery41:47 Right-Sizing Your Bravery Goals47:42 Surrounding Yourself with a Brave TribeResources MentionedJill Schulman's Website: https://www.jillschulman.comBravery Quiz: https://www.jillschulman.com/bravery-quizLove the show?

Faith is a verb, an action word. What good is it to have faith but always play it safe? Step across the line. Serve your fellow man. 

Keep the past where it belongs: in the past. Learn from it. Heal from it. Resolve to move forward. 

The road to success is not a straight line. There are many twists and turns along the way. Don't dread them. Instead, welcome them. Look at them as opportunities to grow and learn. 

Why do some people run towards danger while others avoid it? Wisconsin Congressman Derrick Van Orden was driving to a memorial for the anniversary of his daughter's passing when he witnessed a horrific car crash. In an instant, he jumped into action, using his training as a Navy SEAL combat medic to save an 11-year-old boy's life. Congressman Van Orden recounts his experience on that pivotal day and why he believes a greater power guided him there. He also discusses the unique path he took to becoming a Navy SEAL.

Bence asked, already seeing that Eszter was having difficulty breathing, her face had turned pale.Hu: A szíve gyorsabban vert, de azonnal tudta, mit kell tennie. "Gergő, hívd a mentőket!"En: His heart beat faster, but he knew immediately what to do. "Gergő, call an ambulance!"Hu: Eszter leült, és Bence gyorsan keresett a táskájában valamit, ami segíthetne.En: Eszter sat down, and Bence quickly searched his bag for something that might help.Hu: Az egyetemen egyszer tanult a hasonló helyzetekről.En: He had once learned about similar situations at the university.Hu: Elkezdte visszaidézni mindazt, amit eddig megtanult.En: He began recalling everything he had learned so far.Hu: Finoman megkérdezte Esztert, hogy van-e nála allergia elleni gyógyszer.En: He gently asked Eszter if she had any allergy medication with her.Hu: Szerencsére Eszter mindig hordta magával, bár néha elfelejtette bevenni.En: Fortunately, Eszter always carried it, even though she sometimes forgot to take it.Hu: Bence megnyugtatta őt, segített bevenni a gyógyszert, és bíztatta, hogy lélegezzen mélyen.En: Bence reassured her, helped her take the medicine, and encouraged her to breathe deeply.Hu: Míg a mentők érkezésére vártak, Bence végig Eszter mellett maradt, és próbálta nyugtatgatni.En: While they waited for the ambulance to arrive, Bence stayed by Eszter's side, trying to calm her.Hu: Hamarosan a mentők is megérkeztek.En: Soon the ambulance arrived.Hu: Az orvos megdicsérte Bencét a nyugodt és segítőkész hozzáállásáért. "Nagy hasznát veszed majd az orvosi pályán," mondta neki.En: The doctor praised Bence for his calm and helpful demeanor. "You'll be quite useful in the medical field," the doctor said to him.Hu: Miután Esztert ellátták, a barátok visszaültek a hegytetőn, nézték a város fényeit.En: After Eszter was attended to, the friends sat back down atop the mountain, watching the city lights.Hu: Mindhárman megkönnyebbültek és hálásak voltak.En: All three of them felt relieved and grateful.Hu: Bence azon a napon nemcsak a barátság erejét, hanem a saját képességeit is megtapasztalta.En: That day, Bence experienced not only the strength of friendship but also his own abilities.Hu: Tudta már, miért akart orvos lenni. Hogy segíthessen és reményt adhasson másoknak.En: He knew why he wanted to become a doctor: to help and offer hope to others.Hu: Ott, a hideg téli estén, a Gellért-hegyen, többé már nem félt a vizsgáktól.En: There, on that cold winter evening on Gellért-hegy, he no longer feared the exams.Hu: Tudta, hogy bármilyen nehéz is az út, mindig képes lesz helytállni.En: He knew that no matter how difficult the journey, he would always be able to stand strong.Hu: Karácsony közeledtével Bence-nek volt mit ünnepelnie: barátság, bátorság és a saját fejlődése.En: As Christmas approached, Bence had much to celebrate: friendship, courage, and his own growth.Hu: Az éjszaka pedig lassan Budapestre borult, az ünnepi fények melegénél ülve élvezhették az együttlétet.En: The night slowly fell over Budapest, and by the warmth of the festive lights, they could enjoy their time together.

In today's episode, I would like you to consider the tenacity of a child learning to walk. You have it in you. 

In today's episode, I talk about what success looks like. It might not be what you think it is. 

Deceiving others is an evil act. But God gives us an opportunity to redeem ourselves. The same opportunity exists for those who have deceived us, too.
