<p>This episode is all about what it means to be courageous and fearless.</p> <p>---------------------------------------------------------------------------</p> <p>First of all, there's time to mention a question which was asked in the Facebook group - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/raisingfeminists/"><strong>Join Pragya’s Raising Feminists Facebook Group</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p> <p><strong>'Should I call my daughter pretty?'</strong></p> <p><strong>Main topic: Courage and being Fearless</strong></p> <p>It's common to want to hide things you are feeling fearful about. I hid my TEDx talk when it appeared - even from my family. However, I received emails praising my courage but I didn't feel like that myself. I didn't feel fearless.</p> <p>Admitting fears makes us vulnerable but it's a useful thing to do.&nbsp;</p> <p><em><strong>I wonder if we only realise what we are capable of when we are most broken - when we are pushed to our limits. Our courage also comes from our deepest love and our passion.</strong></em></p> <p>Through being a single mother and suffering very unexpected workplace bullying, I had to learn how to trust people again. What helped was going back and finding the core of what made me - I had to really dig deep and find out how I wanted to define myself. Also, <strong>creativity </strong>helped me enormously. It remains the best mindful technique I have discovered. This is not just artistic creativity but thinking outside the box as well.</p> <p>I used to think that asking for help was a sign of weakness but I realise now that asking for help is a courageous thing to do.&nbsp;</p> <p>----------------------------------------------</p> <p><a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/raising-feminists-an-online-course-with-dr-pragya-agarwal-tickets-59947496576"><strong>Sign up for Pragya’s Raising Feminists Online Course using the discount code - </strong></a><strong>FEMPARENTS</strong>&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p>
