A challenging and inspiring book to overcome anything with clarity and courage.
Brave acts are butterfly wings.
Courageous steps, no matter how small,
have the power to change your life
and the lives of those around you.
In a world full of constant change and societal norms and expectations, many of us find ourselves struggling with fear, wrestling with emotions and repeating cyclical patterns in work and relationships.
In Breathing out Brave, author and citizen of the globe, Sunni Dawson, shares with us her journey to stepping out and becoming brave in a world full of challenges. Through intimate portrayals and anecdotal case studies drawn from her years of practising as both an award winning lawyer and life coach, we are gently guided to dig deep and to identify and overcome the barriers preventing us from stepping up, and stepping out, into the kinds of lives we want for ourselves.
