Finding Brave

27: Leading With Emotional Courage, with Peter Bregman


Listen Later

"What I'm going to encourage listeners to do, and what I talk about in Leading with Emotional Courage, is to trust the emotions in a certain way and in a way that you don't have to figure everything out with your head. Figuring it out with your head keeps the ego in control, and actually stops the emotion from moving on." - Peter Bregman

Being brave is about acting powerfully in the world, and emotional courage, or being brave on the inside, is what we're talking about today. Our guest today shows us that if you are brave with what you are willing to feel, then you can be brave in what you are able to do.

Peter Bregman is the CEO of Bregman Partners, a company that helps senior leaders create accountability and inspire collective action on their organization's most important work. He is the bestselling author of 18 Minutes, and his forthcoming book, Leading with Emotional Courage, is being released this month.

You'll hear stories from Peter's own personal journey about what emotional courage looks and feels like, and learn the value of being able to feel our feelings without fully understanding, analyzing or criticizing them. This is key because, as you'll hear, if you're willing to feel everything, you can do anything.
