Fear is universal—whether you’re scaling a business, raising a family, navigating uncertainty, or climbing a literal mountain. In this powerful keynote, Courtney Wiley shares how fear has been a constant companion throughout her journey—from building, scaling, and exiting the award-winning startup ShearShare to parenting with purpose as an NFL mom and pushing past physical and mental limits while summiting Mount Kilimanjaro. Through candid stories and hard-earned lessons, Courtney challenges the idea that fear is something to avoid. Instead, she reveals how embracing fear can become the catalyst for extraordinary growth, resilience, and breakthrough success. Whether you’re launching a business, stepping into leadership, making a bold life transition, raising the next generation, or pursuing a goal that feels bigger than you, this keynote delivers a powerful reminder: the greatest accomplishments often happen when you choose to do it scared.
