Sometimes fear wants us to lock up our talent and potential and keep it hidden away from anyone and everyone in a misguided attempt at keeping us safe. Holding us back from sharing our voice, holding us back from sharing our ideas, holding us back from making new friends, exploring new lands, trying new career paths even following our dreams.  Holding us back and holding us back and holding us back, again and again, over and over in big and small ways, every day. But what if we stopped letting that happen, What if we demanded that our fear stay small and silent and hidden instead? What if we believed in ourselves and our radiance and our brilliance and our magic? What if we stood up to fear, stepped over fear, silenced fear and then went ahead and followed our dreams anyway? This book is a collection of inspiring stories from women around the world who have done just that! They’ve embraced the courage to silence their fear and are not afraid to realise their potential, follow their dreams and create a positive impact in the world.
