Kate Swoboda believes that "courage can absolutely be cultivated,” just as
we improve other skills with habit-building principles in mind. The problem

get triggered, fall into familiar patterns, then gloss over it with a
reward that's a pale replacement for what our heart really wants.

What's the alternative? Listen to this week's Pivot Podcast conversation to
learn Kate's four-step process for avoiding common fear routine
traps—perfectionist, saboteur, martyr, or pessimist—and building your
courage muscles instead.
