We often know what we need to do. So why don’t we do it?

We know we should have the difficult conversation.
We know we should speak up.
Set the boundary.
Ask for what we need.
Repair the relationship.
Make the change.
Take the first step.

And yet…we don’t.

As Mel Robbins says, “We know what to do, but we don’t do it.”

Why?

Because knowing what to do and actually doing it are two very different things—especially when fear, uncertainty, discomfort, rejection, vulnerability, or old patterns get in the way.

But what if the very thing we’re avoiding is where our growth begins?

Everything We Want Is Beyond Our Fears

Join Scarlett Lewis for our next Choose Love Think Tank: How to Do the Hard Things, an honest and empowering conversation about what keeps us stuck—and how we can find the courage to move forward.

We’ll explore why we avoid the things we know are good for us and how to move through fear instead of allowing it to make our choices for us.

Because courage isn’t the absence of fear. Courage is moving forward despite fear.

For educators, this work is especially important. We can’t teach courage, resilience, healthy relationships, self-awareness, and thoughtful decision-making only through words. We teach them by living them.

When we strengthen our own Choose Love practice, we become better equipped to model it for our students, colleagues, families, and communities.

What You’ll Get

In this Think Tank, we’ll explore:

Why we avoid hard things even when we know they could improve our lives.
How fear, discomfort, and old patterns can keep us stuck.
How to recognize the Choice Moment between what happens and how we respond.
Practical ways to move from “I know I should” to “I’m going to do it.”
How courage, gratitude, forgiveness, and compassion in action can help us navigate difficult conversations, relationships, decisions, and change.
How doing the hard things strengthens confidence, resilience, and our belief in ourselves.
How to bring these lessons back to our students and teach what we are practicing in our own lives.

This isn’t about becoming fearless.

It’s about learning that fear doesn’t have to be in charge.

Come connect with the Choose Love community, strengthen your understanding of the Choose Love mindset, and discover practical ways to use it in your own life—so you can authentically teach and model it for others.
