Welcome to choose courage daily
A podcast about choosing courage. One day at a time. Into unfamiliar spaces. Without the certainty of the outcome.
Only certain that you will come out the other side even better than you started. Stronger than you imagined. Full of growth. Glowing with possibilities.
Courage is where the magic begins...where you step out of your comfort zone, start taking action, doing it afraid every step of the way.
We will explore what courage means, how it shows up for us, what makes us run away from it and how we step into it. From taking the smallest acts to most giant steps of courage.
So whether you are trying a new food, speaking in public, moving to another country or starting your own business.
Join me and let’s go on this journey together where we choose courage daily.
Welcome to another episode of Choose Courage Daily with your host, Mo Jones. Today, Mo delves into embracing the comfort zone while sharing personal insights and experiences from her journey of writing her book, "Choose You, Words to Journey Through Fear, Courage, Joy, and Gratitude," coming in September 2025.
Mo discusses the fears and doubts that often accompany the idea of stepping out of our comfort zones. She emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and embracing fear as a natural part of the growth process while encouraging listeners to take that first, often daunting step towards new challenges and opportunities.
Join Mo as she encourages you to think about what’s been holding you back and to consider the beauty that awaits on the other side of your comfort zone.

Tomi Makanjuola
Are you looking to find the courage to go vegan?
Tomi Makanjuola is an award-winning blogger and chef. She runs The Vegan Nigerian, a platform dedicated to making Nigerian cuisine and the vegan lifestyle accessible to members of her community and beyond.
The Vegan Nigerian began as a blog in 2013 and has since evolved to include pop-up restaurants, workshops and cookbooks.
Her book, Vegan Nigerian Kitchen, offers some delicious and easy recipes for anyone looking to try vegan food.
Tomi chose courage by leaving her job and starting her blog while never really knowing where it would land her. She just knew she had a passion for vegan eating and sharing it with others.
Although she started her blog anonymously, she realized she had to tap into courage again. It was time for her to get visible and put a face to her blog. And from there, one courageous step after another followed.
