""The Courage Gap offers on-point leadership advice."" -Kirkus Reviews

Do you sometimes hold back when you know you need to speak up or step forward?

Fear creates the gap. Courage closes it.

This powerful guide from the bestselling author of You've Got This! cuts through the hype to connect the 'why' of courage to the 'how' of courage. Drawing on cutting-edge research woven together with stories that compel head andheart, The Courage Gap will help you bridge the think/do gap between what you've been doing and what you can do; between where you are and where you want to be-in your career, relationships, leadership, and life.

Distilling theory and hard-won wisdom spanning from Margie's childhood in rural Australia to her decades of living around the world and coaching 'insecure overachievers' in Fortune 500 organizations, Margie shares a powerful 5-step roadmap to reprogram the self-protective patterns of thought and behavior that sabotage success to bring your bravest self to your biggest challenges and boldest vision.

At a time when courage seems in short supply, in a culture continually stoking insecurity and anxiety, this book will transform your deepest fears into a catalyst for your highest growth and the greatest good.

Applying the five steps will-

Ignite passion and unlock the potential fear holds dormant Rewrite the scripts that have kept you stuck, stressed, and living too safely Reset your 'nervous' system and embody courage in critical moments Transform discomfort as a cue to step forward and expand your bandwidth for bold action Reset your relationship to failure and make peace with the part of you that wimps out

For leaders, The Courage Gap provides a guide to operationalize and scale the courage mindset across your team and organization to deepen trust, dismantle silos, foster innovation, accelerate learning, and unleash collective courage toward a more secure and rewarding future.
