To Pappas, Bravery Is Inward-facing; It's All In How You Feel About Yourself, As Much About Always Believing In Yourself As It Is About Running Toward Your Goals. Pappas's Experiences Reveal How Anyone Can Overcome Hardship, Befriend Pain, Celebrate Victory, Relish The Loyalty Found In Teammates, And Claim Joy. In Short: How Anyone Can Be A Bravey.
