Mindfulness Practices for Everyday Bravery

Western society too often trains us out of feeling innately confident in who we are and in the wisdom we hold inside. Instead, we are handed down a set of expectations about our bodies, our disposition, our religious identification, our sexual orientation, our parenting, and our career choices.

Dr. Leah Katz draws on her training as a psychologist and her experience redefining the faith and culture she was raised with to offer tools and insights for getting "unstuck" from society's unrealistic and often harmful expectations for women that we have adopted as our own.

By learning to identify what is holding us back, and adopting a mindset of joy, gratitude, and resilience, we can fulfill our dreams — and, really, fulfill ourselves. It's time to get gutsy and create the rich, vibrant life we have always wanted.
