Courage. It looks different for each one of us. We often undercut the process of becoming a warrior because we deem ourselves ordinary. For some, courage is big and bold and for others it seems tiny and insignificant.
💛Courageousness is an action or belief propelling us through the fear to face the possibility of what’s on the other side, even if it seems small, it’s still BIG!
💛 You are courageous. Every one of you! You show up each day with an element of uncertainty. Can you name the thing that makes you brave and be proud of the guts it takes or took to be where you are RIGHT now! I’ll go first.

💛 I kept going even though I was scared of falling.
💛 Some people’s words caused doubt, but I listened to those who believed in me instead.
💛 God needed me to face it, so I could help others two steps behind me.
💛 My girls needed to see a Mom who dusted herself off, and got back in the race.
💛 Today me basks in gratitude for the perseverance I’ve gained and the grace extended to me along the way!

You ARE Brave and Capable!

💛 Dr. Sam

You might say to yourself, “Someday”, “Eventually”, or “Maybe later.”

OR

You might say to yourself,
“Now”, “Today” and “Here we go!”

The choice is yours!
