Live from the Balance The Board conference in 2025, Jeannette delivers a powerful message on on how to successfully scale a business, acknowledging that 70% of scale-ups fail despite strong ambition.  Her core message introduces a Belief Framework—an inside job starting with the individual—to ensure leaders are in the best possible shape to lead themselves, their teams, and their businesses You'll hear how: Successful scaling-up requires focusing on three foundational elements: leading yourself (the inside job), leading your teams (creating a winning, psychologically safe environment), and leading the business (securing maximum impact). The Belief Framework is a simple, six-part formula for personal readiness: Bravery, Energy, Love, Influences, Execution, and Failure. Leaders must put their own oxygen mask on first, as energy and self-care are crucial for maintaining the high-energy, positive outlook required for scaling, especially during challenging times. Scaling requires courage: it's not always going to work, and if you're not failing (and learning from it), you're staying in your comfort zone—the goal is to fail your way to greatness Subscribe to Brave Bold Brilliant for weekly wisdom on leadership, legacy, and living boldly. 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.

Send us a textEver notice how bravery often shows up in the quietest moments; the times no one else sees? Not when you're leaping off cliffs or slaying dragons (though, props if you are!), but when you say yes to your next chapter even when your knees are shaking.In this heartfelt and laughter-sprinkled episode, Alex and Carol celebrate National Brave Day by exploring what courage really looks like for women who lead, nurture, and create EVEN when the path ahead feels uncertain. Drawing inspiration from Brené Brown's definition of courage, which is the choice to be vulnerable and show up, even when the outcome is unknown is the conversation that dives into the real, sometimes messy truth behind brave action.Carol opens the episode with a tribute to Alex's own bravery: from once dreading Facebook Lives to now sharing sun-kissed beach walks from her new home in Panama. Together, they unpack what it takes to uproot your life for a vision bigger than comfort and to exchange hustle for harmony, and “shoulds” for soul-led choices.You'll hear Alex reflect on the neuroscience of courage and how our brains are wired for safety, yet our spirits crave expansion. She shares candid stories about adjusting to a new culture, parenting in Spanish (while still learning it herself!), and watching her daughters model bravery in the simplest ways, including playing with new friends despite language barriers, or walking confidently into unfamiliar classrooms.Carol also opens up about her own courageous chapters: learning Spanish in her 50s, running a new business in a new country alone, and redefining what strength looks like after loss. Together, they remind us that bravery doesn't always roar. Sometimes, it's the whisper that says, keep going anyway.✨ In this episode, you'll discover:Why hustle culture can secretly sabotage our sense of safety and how to rewire your brain for ease instead.The powerful connection between vision and vulnerability, and why every big leap begins with a small, honest question: “What do I truly want to create?”How modeling bravery for the next generation starts with slowing down, being present, and letting go of perfection.The neuroscience of courage and how to train your mind to see uncertainty as expansion, not danger.Why community and connection (like the Worthy Book Club) can transform fear into fuel when you surround yourself with brave women walking their own bold paths.Before you hit play, take a breath.

Jim Moorhead is the Founder and CEO of STAND BRAVE, a consulting and coaching firm that helps organizations build empowering cultures. As a former assistant US attorney, investment banker, and law firm partner, he has advised Fortune 500 companies in crises and high-stakes settings. Jim is also the author of The Instant Survivor: Right Ways to Respond When Things Go Wrong. His STAND BRAVE™ framework guides leaders and teams to take calculated risks and respond boldly when faced with adversity. In this episode… Bravery is often celebrated in hindsight, yet in the moment, it can feel anything but heroic. With organizations facing rapid change and constant pressure, how can leaders and teams act boldly during uncertainty and high stakes? What does it take to build a culture that consistently chooses courage over comfort? Crisis management and brave leadership authority, Jim Moorhead argues that bravery is not a rare trait but a muscle to be trained. He advises making bravery a shared team value and starting small by openly identifying problems or asking for help before scaling to bigger risks. Leaders can create structures that reward innovation and use clear company values to decide when to walk away from revenue drivers that aren't the right fit. These habits enable agility and resilience during chaotic times.  In this episode of the Up Arrow Podcast, William Harris sits down with Jim Moorhead, Founder and CEO of STAND BRAVE, to talk about building a culture of courageous leadership. Jim explains why innovation slowdowns are often bravery problems, how his STAND BRAVE™ framework turns single acts of courage into sustained brave leadership, and why taking even one small step can spark a cycle of bold action.

If you've ever caught yourself waiting until you feel “ready” before making a move, whether that's starting something new, having a hard conversation, or stepping out of your comfort zone, then this episode is for you. I'm sitting down with Jill Schulman, a former U.S. Marine Corps officer turned corporate leader and positive psychology expert. Her upcoming book, The Bravery Effect, unpacks how courage isn't about being fearless; it's about taking steps forward with fear, and how that shift changes everything. Jill's story is full of brave leaps: from serving as one of the first women combat engineer officers in the Marines, to leading in the corporate world, to heading back to grad school at 47 to study the science of happiness and wellbeing. What she's learned along the way is that bravery is not a personality trait, it's a skill we can all grow, one tiny tweak at a time. We talk about what's really happening in our brains when we choose to be brave, why comfort doesn't equal happiness (even though the world tells us it does), and simple practices like “yet” thinking, reframing stress, and even prioritizing sleep. Each one is a small but powerful way to build your brave muscle without overhauling your whole life. I left this conversation feeling inspired to stop waiting until I feel ready—and I think you will too. Mentioned in This Episode:
