Small Brave Firsts

Ester G. Reeves

Every new direction begins with a clumsy first attempt that nobody wants to make in front of others. This is the encouragement to make it anyway: why the awkward start matters more than the smooth middle, how to sit with the discomfort of being a beginner again, and small ways to practice courage before the stakes get high. Warm, grounded, and quietly persuasive about the worth of trying.
