Live Beyond Courage | Sandy Gledhill | TEDxHarmony Science Academy Dallas High
"Living Beyond Courage" idea is that when we choose to terminate our contract with fear and live beyond courage, we can radically improve our physical and mental health, make better/wiser decisions, and enjoy a life of true freedom. After 20 years of studying fearlessness and overcoming my own debilitating fears, I realized we have glorified courage and completely misunderstood fearlessness. Courage means “doing it afraid” and taking fearful action is not a sustainable long-term strategy! Fearlessness is not recklessness, it means removing fear from your decision-making process. Fearlessness is possible for everyone! Sandy Gledhill is a thought leader & business consultant who has researched fearlessness for 20 years. After overcoming her own debilitating fears and discovering the 7 secrets to fearlessness, she now empowers leaders to lead, even as they are still in the process of becoming.
Sandy helps high-performers achieve outrageous success by teaching them how to totally eradicate fear. A keynote speaker & author of The Fearless Revolution, she loves to share her unique message of Living Beyond Courage.
