Live Brave with Dr Margie WarrellAuthor: Dr Margie Warrell
Welcome to my Live Brave Podcast! This podcast was inspired by the many conversations I've had with people around the world who confided how often they let their doubts and fears hold them back from going after what they want or changing what they don't. You'll not only hear my own hard-won wisdom, but insights and inspiration from world-renowned leaders, luminaries and incredible people on how to take those chances and make changes - in your career, relationships, leadership and life. People like General Stanley McChrystal, Steve Forbes, Harvard's Amy Edmondson, Olympian Jacqui Cooper, Dr Phil and many many more. I hope each episode will embolden you to own your power, dial up your courage and live the biggest life you're capable of living.

140 - The Courage You Practice Shapes the Leader You Become with JoAnne Bass
Sunday, 15 February, 2026
Our identity - as people and leaders - isn’t forged in one defining moment. It’s built over time, through small choices that test our values long before the stakes feel high. In this conversation with JoAnne S. Bass, the first Asian American and first female to serve as Chief Master Sergeant of the United States Air Force where she was responsible for nearly 800,000 serviceman, we discuss how practicing courage in small ways early in our careers expands our capacity to exercise courage in big ways when the stakes are greater as our careers progress and influence grows. JoAnne shares her journey from trying to blend in early in her career to embracing her identity as a leadership strength, even when it risked disapproval. We talk about the decisions that strengthened her integrity and why values matter more than certainty. If you’ve ever hesitated to speak up or wondered what leadership is asking you to grow into, this episode invites a more honest look at the moments shaping you now.Get my book The Courage Gap: https://margiewarrell.com/thecouragegap/ Transform discomfort into bold, confident action: The LinkedIn Course https://www.linkedin.com/learning/activating-courage-transform-discomfort-into-bold-confident-actionAbout Chief Master Sgt.
