In this episode of The Courage to Continue, Nina is joined by her ten-year-old niece, Frankie, for a heartfelt conversation about courage through the eyes of a child.
Frankie shares her experiences navigating primary school, dealing with bullying, and finding the confidence to keep showing up even during difficult times. Together, they discuss the importance of being yourself, leaning on supportive friends and family, and why kindness can make all the difference in a young person's life.
The conversation also explores Frankie's love of basketball and how sport has helped build her confidence, resilience, and sense of belonging. She also shares the simple strategies that help her through challenging moments, including talking to trusted people, spending time with her pets, listening to music, practicing self-care, and allowing herself to feel her emotions.
This episode is a beautiful reminder that courage isn't about never being afraid—it's about continuing to show up, being kind, and believing in yourself, even when things feel hard.
