Episode Synopsis

In this raw and powerful episode of Sustained Courage, I share a recent personal experience that sparked a deeper reflection on what accountability really means. After facing resistance for asking for something as reasonable as a vet bill reimbursement following a traumatic dog attack, I unpack why so many of us—especially women, caregivers, and empaths—are made to feel guilty for seeking justice, fairness, or follow-through. You'll learn: Why accountability is a form of respect, not punishment The surprising history of accountability across ancient civilizations and animal behavior What science says about why accountability boosts trust, performance, and self-worth Tangible, compassionate ways to hold yourself and others accountable How to distinguish between expectations and true accountability If you've ever felt bad for speaking up, setting boundaries, or holding someone to their word—this episode is for you. ✨ Accountability is not cruelty. It's courage. It's care. It's clarity. ✨
