Take The Challenge and Go For It!...Terrie M. Williams

"You’ll be pathetic or flatline for the rest of your life if you don’t. Thank God that you’re scared, because it means that right before you is something that’s going to take your game to the next level. So go for it. Listen to your inner voice and treat everyone the same. You never know in what disguise God is coming to you."

You're Not Alone...Sheri Dew

“We're not alone--at least, we're alone only if we choose to be alone. We're alone only if we choose to go through life relying solely on our own strength rather than learning to draw upon the power of God. ”
 
--Sheri L. Dew

Leadership Tuesdays: Conquering Fear...Yehuda Berg

“It's our own small voice within that is our oppressor; it says we are not worthy and not powerful enough. Our limited beliefs are the real foes we need to fight and conquer.”

Yehuda Berg

Every other Tuesday, womenatliberty.com provides a platform for a variety of voices and resources to develop, encourage, and strengthen women leaders. Today's Leadership Tuesdays' post features an article in Forbes by Kathy Caprion @KathyCaprino on Twitter.com ), The Most Common Reason People Fail To Pursue The Best Opportunity In Front Of Them.


Women too often discount their abilities and themselves. There is a difference between a person being braggadocios and prideful, and a person exuding confidence in their abilities and experience. We must be willing to encourage each to take risks and support each other as we step out of our comfort zones. Without stretching for new goals and opportunities, we will never expand our view of what's possible.

Kathy Caprino explains how we often describe our fears in this quote: 

In my work helping professional women build exciting, rewarding careers they love, I’ve heard this one fear expressed literally more times than I can count. It comes out in many different forms and ways, but here’s what it often sounds like:

“I’m not sure I have the skills or leadership experience to do this.”

“I don’t think I’m quite ready.” 

“This big of a stretch will really stress me, I think.” 

“I don’t know if I can really succeed at this.” 

“I’ll need a lot of help with this and where would I get that help?” 

“I have some of the required skills, but not all of them.” 

This article gives advice on some of the questions you should ask yourself to help identify your fears and overcome them. Here's to a successful 2015! For more information on Leadership Tuesdays, click here.

I've never been fearless. But I talk back to my fear. I tell it to shut up. I tell it what I'm going to do - not vice versa!

Fear Not...Katharine Jefferts Schori

We live in a world that is desperate for relief from fear. People in the United States are afraid of losing their jobs and home. Others are afraid of not being able to feed their children or themselves. Many of our politicians are afraid of being chucked out by their constituents if they don't answer their small-mindedness by prompting fear in others.

The fear all around us cries out for succor and comfort, and if we bear the image of God, we are also meant to be messengers of the holy one--fear not, God is with you. (Excerpt from the recently released book, "Gathering At God's Table, The Meaning Of Mission In The Feast of Faith"

--Katharine Jefferts Schori, 26th Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church of the United States

Twice a month on Tuesdays, WOMEN AT LIBERTY provides a platform for a variety of voices and resources to develop, encourage, and strengthen women leaders. This week Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori is featured. She is the first woman to be elected as the chief bishop or the highest leader of the Anglican Church in U.S. She was elected in 2006.

Bishop Jefferts Schori is responsible for initiating and developing policy for the Episcopal Church and speaks on behalf of the church regarding the policies, strategies, and programs of the church.
