Microdosing Bravery

Psychology America with Dr. Alexandra

What is bravery and does bravery always have to be “big?” We have the opportunity to challenge ourselves with small acts of bravery in our every day world. Bravery can mean psychological bravery, such as getting ourselves to speak to someone when we’d normally avoid them, or taking a first action step on a creative endeavor that feels like a risk.
My guest on this show is Dr. Kristen Lee, Ed.D, a 2022 Next Big Idea Club nominee and the author of 2022 book “Worth the Risk: How to Microdose Bravery and Grow Resilience, Connect More and Offer Yourself to the World.” Dr. Kris leads the Behavior Science program at Northeastern University and is the author of “RESET: Make the Most of your Stress.” She is the winner of the Next Generation Indie Book Awards Motivational Book 2015. Lastly, Dr. Kris has over two decades of experience as a mental health clinician.
