Imagine a world where nearly everyone wakes up inspired to go to work, feels trusted and valued throughout the day, and returns home with a sense of fulfillment.

This isn’t a crazy, idealistic dream— These workplaces succeed because their leaders build what Simon Sinek calls a “Circle of Safety”—an environment where team members feel secure and supported, shielded from external threats and internal rivalries.

Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright brothers may seem to have little in common, yet they all began with “Why.” They understood that people don’t truly buy into a product, service, movement, or idea until they understand the purpose behind it.

In Start with Why, Simon Sinek reveals that the world’s most influential leaders think, act, and communicate in the exact same way—and it’s the complete opposite of what most people do. He calls this powerful concept the “Golden Circle,” a framework that helps organizations build movements, lead with clarity, and inspire lasting loyalty—all beginning with a clear sense of Why.

In Dare to Lead, Brené Brown writes:
“One of the most important findings of my career is that courageous leadership is made up of four skill sets that are 100% teachable, observable, and measurable. Learning and unlearning these skills requires brave work, tough conversations, and showing up with your whole heart.”

Is it easy? Not at all. Choosing courage over comfort is not our default. Is it worth it? Always. If we want to live and work with courage, this is what it takes—and this is what makes it meaningful.
