Courage begins where comfort ends—and that’s where leadership truly starts. If you’ve ever found yourself walking out of a meeting thinking “I should’ve said something,” you’re not alone. Leadership doesn’t always look like bold declarations or sweeping change.Often, it looks like a quiet, steady decision to do the harder thing. It looks like leaning in—especially
