Episode 8: From Doing to Being with guest Robyn Cohen
In this episode I dive into the nuances of bravery versus courage with guest Robyn Cohen, a yoga instructor from Metta Yoga in Marin. We discuss how bravery is about acting in the moment, while courage involves facing fears with conscious decision-making. I share a reading from Brené Brown's book "Rising Strong," emphasizing the transformative power of courage on our emotional being. Robyn, revealing her personal journey and struggles, including a childhood marked by fear and a deep desire to be liked, reflects on the impact of early heartbreaks and her path to finding strength and courage. She opens up about her experiences, from dealing with her first broken heart in sixth grade to navigating relationships and self-worth. Robyn also touches on the significance of her father's sobriety and its positive impact on her life, illustrating the healing power of courage and the importance of support systems. The episode encapsulates a conversation about personal growth and the continual journey towards self-discovery and wholehearted living.
