Michelle’s in her pajamas and drinking champagne, and Suzanne is on her second glass of wine, so you know that today’s episode is going to be an interesting one. Both of our hosts have had some stress and anxiety in their lives, especially over the past couple weeks, and that has inspired this week’s topic of courage and a look at various perspectives on it, and the role it has played in their lives and the lives of others.
 
Michelle begins by sharing her continued wedding planning work, and then Suzanne offers some background on her extended family and the recent death of her aunt. They go on to define courage, recount some examples of it from both their own and others’ lives, and highlight its role in asking for help and apologizing. Suzanne’s recent panic attack, Prince Philip’s funeral, and a selection of profound quotes regarding courage are also discussed. Filled with its usual sense of fun, today’s episode also strikes an highly emotional and inspirational note as our hosts explore this most noble of human traits.
