Ordinary
Courage

One Woman's Story of Overcoming Insurmountable Odds.

" THIS BOOK SHOULD COME WITH A WARNING - Buckle up! your feelings will not respect your need to look good and I was in tears in short order. Ordinary Courage is one hell of an emotional ride right from the start. Vanisha's writing and account of her life in this first book could be required reading for anyone who wants to learn about resiliency. I applaud her and thank her for the immense courage and vulnerability she showed by putting this out to the world. I know many of you will feel the same. I highly recommend this book to anyone that needs hope - All of Us. This is exactly what Brene Brown writes about in Daring Greatly. "

Ordinary Courage

"Podcast" script text

With Vanisha Breault

Ordinary Courage is no ordinary podcast. Aimed to explore real stories surrounding issues of addiction, mental health and abuse, we are pushing the boundaries of vulnerability, introspection and everyday courage, and ultimately shifting the paradigm of judgment towards one of compassion.
