Training Courage Like a Muscle: Veteran and Author Jill Schulman on unlocking ‘The Bravery Effect’

“Bravery isn’t the absence of fear—it’s the decision to move forward anyway.” That’s the message behind ‘The Bravery Effect‘, a book written by Jill Schulman, an author, veteran and University of Pennsylvania alum. She joined us in the PHL17 studio to tell us more about her book and what it means to be in Philly ahead of the Marine Corps 250th birthday.

“We all have goals, dreams, and moments we hesitate on—not because we aren’t capable, but because we’re afraid. Fear whispers that it’s safer to stay comfortable, but that comfort is often a trap. The Bravery Effect is your wake-up call to break free. Through an unforgettable story and real-world tools, you’ll learn how to lean into discomfort and reclaim your courage.”
