Catalyst
Courage reflects your integrity, while intimidation is an illusion of power.
Insight
Strength rooted in courage carries clarity and conviction. Intimidation, on the other hand, thrives on uncertainty and fear. Whether from an unfair comment, a controlling relationship, or even your own inner critic, intimidation seeks to paralyze. Courage is the antidote because it clears the confusion, keeps integrity intact, and refuses to shrink in the face of fear. By holding onto courage, situations designed to undermine you have less power. When you stand your ground and respond with determination instead of reacting impulsively, you dissipate the illusion of intimidation and reinforce your own strength.
Reflection
Think of a moment when someone or something intimidated you. How did you respond? What would acting with courage look like if you faced a similar situation again?
