About The Courage Community
The Courage Community provides coaching for Social Freedom, conversation, and connection, so you can confidently talk to anyone, anywhere, about anything, without hesitation!
We are a full service, online & in-person personal development & life coaching community, where we focus on this special brand of courage as the underlying super-power we use to make faster progress on our goals. We discuss a wide-array of topics, from interpersonal relationship skills and career development, to strategies for private life goals and philosophical perspectives on building and leading "a good life."
We are headquartered in Massachusetts, USA while serving a global audience. The encouraging mindsets we teach, along with our Social Freedom exercises, push students to expand their comfort zones and overcome emotional roadblocks, while practicing their new skills enough to generate confidence.
Due to our extraordinary level of care and personal attention, we deliver fast results that last with a 12 year track record of highly satisfied customers.
If you care too much about what other people think, and you’d like to overcome the internal resistance that sometimes holds you back, work with us to conquer it and stop missing out on relationships, friendships, and career opportunities.

The Courage Community Mission Statement
The Courage Community offers a rapid and permanent increase in Social Freedom, conversation, and connection capabilities for people who have situational anxiety (such as worrying too much about what other people think).
The Courage Community Vision Statement
Over the next few years, we hope to grow The Courage Community to thousands of active members who are all working together to make the world a better place by embodying the core values of The Courage Community:
Everyone from coaches, to students, to employees should strive to encourage lifelong personal development (value of consistency), and facing fears (value of courage), even when it's hard (determination), so we can live our truest lives (authenticity), while seeking new knowledge and experiences (curiosity).
Coach Mike’s Personal Mission Statement
I endeavor to help others by giving people knowledge, experiences, and support that save them time, money, effort, or heartache; and lead to improved feelings of capability, self-confidence, social confidence, personal freedom, and deeper connections with the people and situations they care about.
In short, I teach people how to find the courage they need to build the lives they truly want to live.

How I See My Job
As with any coach, my task is to guide and encourage you on your specific journey towards the goals you’ve asked for my help with. But as a courage and confidence coach, I see it as my job to push you out of your comfort zone as a means of achieving those goals more effectively.
That means you shouldn't expect working with me or my community to be easy or pain free. We do our best to keep the process fun, but success in life and personal development often means doing difficult things — either by facing uncomfortable emotions and mental/physical obstacles, or by putting in enough of the right kind of effort to achieve your goals — even when you’d rather be doing anything else.
You will be challenged. Your views will be questioned. You will be made uncomfortable for the purpose of growth. The unhelpful aspects of your ego will be crushed. You may even have a full-blown existential crisis (that's what a transformational experience actually feels like)! This kind of training is similar to learning a martial art. It's just as tough, and just as — if not more — useful.
There may be some moments where you do not like me, my assessment of your situation, or what I tell you to do. This is an expected part of the relationship (notice I said “moments” — if you consistently dislike me, that means we're not a good fit). Courage coaching will help you feel better about yourself overall, but it won’t always feel good moment-to-moment.
That said, you don't have to be tough to do this training — you only have to want to get tougher.
Are you ready for the challenge?
