🎧 Podcast: Just Courage: When are you really brave? What ís courage anyway - and what does it deliver? Is it in your character, or can you learn it?

In her new podcast Just Courage goes presenter Emmelie Zipson in search of the many faces of courage. She speaks to a diverse mix of known and unknown guests about big and small acts of courage: from daring to step on stage to standing up for yourself in the quietest room. With a personal and open mind, Emmelie invites listeners to explore courage in all its forms - and inspired to pursue their own stories.“Courage gets you moving - for yourself or for another.” 🎙
