Jeffers explains how fear doesn’t vanish before you act; it shrinks because you do. Beneath jitters about public speaking, career shifts, or rejection lies a deeper worry — like "I won’t be able to handle it" — and the cure is proving, step by step, that you can handle almost anything.

She turns courage into a practice. The "No-Lose" decision model reframes choices so every route yields learning; a Pain‑to‑Power vocabulary swaps helpless scripts for agency; visualisation, affirmations, and taking full responsibility steady the mind. Small, repeated “acts of power” expand your world and your self‑trust.

In a choice-rich life, waiting to feel fearless keeps you stuck. This book offers a clear, usable toolkit for moving anyway, so you can claim opportunities in work, relationships, and change without bargaining with anxiety.
