Thank you!
I have a dream inside that I’ve been chipping away to get off the ground as a full time working physician. This season was wonderful! Helpful content and strategies and the most inspiring stories. Thank you for this season of Brave Enough. It’s exactly what I needed!

Brave Enough
The Brave Enough podcast has been so helpful for me personally and professionally. I manage a provider wellness program and Sasha's knowledge and guests have so many great nuggets. I recently listened to the Solo Parent episode and it was very helpful because I have a daughter that is an amazing solo parent to our grandson.
