Sometimes, the hardest part isn’t knowing what you want. It’s daring to take the first step. On Wednesday, August 6th, 2025 at 6:00 PM EST, world-renowned speaker, Paralympian, and bestselling author Alicia Ibarra will host a powerful and intimate virtual event titled “The Courage to Begin”, a free session for professionals, entrepreneurs, and anyone at a crossroads ready to reconnect with their inner voice and take aligned action.
This one-hour live experience is more than a motivational talk. It’s a call to presence, a space to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the courage that often gets buried under routine, doubt, or fear.
From her lived experience of overcoming unimaginable adversity, including the loss of her leg at age 8 and rising to compete in the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games, Alicia understands what it means to begin again. Again and again.
“We all carry a moment that’s waiting for us to say: Now. This event is about that moment,” says Ibarra. “It’s about tuning in, claiming your space, and daring to begin from exactly where you are.”
What to Expect:
During The Courage to Begin, participants will be guided through reflective exercises and strategies designed to help them:
Reconnect with their personal and professional purpose
Identify the hidden fears or doubts that may be keeping them stuck
Find the clarity to take meaningful action
Reclaim their voice and their vision for the life they want to lead
This event is ideal for those who are navigating change, craving more, or simply feel ready, but haven’t yet taken the leap.
