About this Episode

We've built a world designed to make sure we never have to sit with discomfort for very long. Phones, Netflix, distraction on demand. But almost everything that actually grows us asks us to walk into something uncomfortable first.

In Part 3 of Challenge Accepted, Forrest Jenan tells the story of Esther — a young woman asked to risk everything without knowing the outcome — and asks what your next Brave Move might be.
