If you're a woman in midlife, chances are you've faced one - or several - of these life transitions. And somewhere along the way, you may have pressed pause on your career… your confidence… or even your sense of direction.
But what if this chapter isn’t the end of your story—what if it’s the moment you learn to be brave?
Dare To Be Brave with Joy Foster is a powerful solo podcast that blends real-life insight with the neuroscience of courage, confidence, and change.
Each episode unpacks what’s really happening in your brain when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or afraid to move forward—and shows you how to work with your brain, not against it.
You’ll learn how to:
- Rebuild confidence after a setback
- Take action even when fear is loud
- Break free from overthinking and self-doubt
- Navigate change with clarity and resilience
- Redefine success on your own terms

Because bravery isn’t something you’re born with. It’s something you build.
And this is where it begins.

E265｜Why Mel Robbins Thinks Social Media is STILL the Most Important Thing For Your Business in 2025
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
“People will have negative opinions about you and every single thing you do. Let them.”
– Mel Robbins
Everyone is talking about Mel Robbins’ latest book, The Let Them Theory. And trust us when we say you’ll be nodding along to what she has to say.
In it, Mel shares her own struggle with promoting herself on social media when she first started as a motivational speaker.
Despite having a vision for her business, she hesitated, worried about what her friends and family would think.
😨 She wrote post after post and left them sitting in drafts.
😨 She overthought every caption.
😨 She feared looking arrogant.
😨 She feared people questioning her credibility.
It took her two years – TWO YEARS – to finally turn down the volume on her fears and start posting consistently. And this is Mel Robbins we’re talking about!
If she felt that way, no wonder so many of us do too.
Here’s why you should listen in
