67: The Boldest People Aren’t Fearless—They’re Fed Up

In this episode of Pivot with Passion, the conversation centers around the truth that courage is not about being fearless—it’s about being fed up. When "fine" is no longer good enough, that's when courage shows up. Listeners are invited to consider how fear masks itself as procrastination, overthinking, or low energy, and how those signals can be clues that it's time to take bold, aligned action. Through personal stories and relatable insights, this episode highlights that courage is a habit anyone can build, and that uncomfortable moments are often the key to growth.

The Clarity Cocktail quote, “The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek,” weaves throughout the episode as a reminder that fear often signals value, not danger. A simple three-question “Courage Check-In” encourages listeners to pause and get honest about what they’re avoiding and why. Whether trying on dream shoes or stepping into a bigger version of yourself, the message is clear: courage is a daily choice—and it’s how we go from fine to phenomenal.
