Weaving together storytelling, practical tips and inspiration to show that fearlessness is not lack of fear but the courage to overcome it, Be Fearless provides a clear roadmap to anyone seeking transformational breakthroughs in life or work.
Throughout Be Fearless, Jean vividly illustrates these principles through storytelling—from her own transformational life experiences, to Jane Goodall’s remarkable breakthroughs in understanding and protecting chimpanzees, to celebrity chef José Andrés’ decision to be a “first responder” and take his kitchen to the sites of devastating hurricanes to feed the hungry, to Bryan Stevenson’s ambitious efforts to end incarceration inequities, and more. She shares new insights to stories you might think you know—like AirBnB’s tale of starting from scratch to transform the hospitality industry, to John F. Kennedy’s history-making moonshot—and gems from changemakers you’ve never heard of.
These stories, alongside practical tips and inspiration, provide readers with the tools they need to put the Be Fearless principles to work and to change the world.
