Fearless and Free

Love Your Team

Traci Corazin talks about the power of fear and how embracing fear can set you free. Traci is the General Manager of Strategic Account Sales, Northeast region at Microsoft. In this episode Traci shares with us an experience that totally changed how she thinks about fear. She unpacks her three-part framework that enables her to run towards fear and take on new challenges. What I love about Traci’s framework is it is very actionable and anybody can learn to use it.
