Just Courage

When is someone really brave? What does courage mean to you and what does it actually provide? Can you develop courage or is it just in your genes?
Courage comes in many forms. It gets you moving, for yourself or for someone else. In this podcast, I take you on a personal quest for what courage really is. Emmelie Zipson talks to a special mix of guests-famous and unknown-and together they explore the many faces of courage: from big, heroic deeds to those small, everyday moments of perseverance.

Martijn Aslander

In this episode of Just Courage, I speak to Martijn Aslander - speaker, writer and stand-up philosopher.
We talk about courage as curiosity: the willingness to question assumptions, bear consequences and continue to act from what feels right. Martijn candidly shares about his recovery from a brain attack, his views on leadership, technology and the role of stories as an engine for change.
An inspiring conversation about moral clarity, learning from adversity and the courage to keep thinking, feeling and creating.
