In today's culture of fear which fuels anxious thinking daily, learning to live bravely is indispensable for living well. In my @TEDTalks I share how to reign in the fear that keeps you leading the change you wish to see.

The world keeps dragging us apart and toward the superficial. The grief soaked wisdom of Rachel Goldberg Polin - whose son Hersh was kidnapped by Hamas on Oct 7 and later murderd - pulls us back to each other and to the courage within us.

Forget the politics. By modeling moral courage, #PopeLeo is holding a mirror that each of us - regardless of faith - should look into. My thoughts on @forbes https://t.co/umS8q7gcUq

[Dr Margie Warrell @margiewarrell]

My favorite moment at @semafor World Economy this week had nothing to do with AI or geopolitics. It was a real conversation with my dear friend Michael. The loneliness of leadership is real - and no technology will ever replace the trust built in person. That's still our most powerful lever for moving business and humanity fwd. #SemaforWorldEconomy #Leadership

“This isn’t a dystopian novel. This is the daily reality for 14 million women and girls in Afghanistan today.”

In this powerful @Forbes column, @margiewarrell describes the Taliban’s assault on women’s rights – and how you can take action.

Anxiety and overwhelm are real right now. If you're feeling it, take a breath. Then ask yourself what the calm clear-headed version of you would be doing right now. Never make a permanent decision from a temporary state.

Comparison is human. Decades of research show it’s part of how we navigate the world. But when we measure our insides against other people’s outsides, or our weaknesses against their strengths, it drains our creativity, our energy, and our focus. https://t.co/qMMjo8eZgk

Happy International Women's Day... from me and my 90-year-old-dad. He had something to add so watch to the end... it may just be the best bit! #IWD2026

[Dr Margie Warrell @margiewarrell]

We live in a world that constantly invites comparison. Every time we pick up our devices, our newsfeeds flood us with curated images, updates, and highlights from everyone else’s lives. It’s designed to capture our attention—but all too often, it leaves us feeling “less than,” stoking insecurity and fueling endless comparisons. Comparison is human. https://t.co/UyPiwIN9Bf

Happy International Women's Day. While women have made huge strides, many still struggle with a lack of confidence My latest article on @forbes shares four ways we can build it https://t.co/9aGR2iFTP2 #IWD2026 #IWD26 #GiveToGain

None of us arrive the other side of childhood without being hurt in some way. This is true even if you had the most loving parents. At some point, something happens that hurts us.
But while our wounds are not our fault, healing them is very much our responsibility.

[Dr Margie Warrell @margiewarrell]

So many leaders I meet — including some with enormous influence — are still leading from unhealed wounds.
And whether we acknowledge it or not, we’ve all been wounded in some way. Even the most loving childhood leaves marks.
Our wounds are not our fault.
But healing them is our responsibility. https://t.co/Zz9V4HLz7X

[Dr Margie Warrell @margiewarrell]

What kind of world would we be living in if those in power weren’t leading from unhealed wounds?

[Dr Margie Warrell @margiewarrell]

It would be nice if life always conformed to our plans.
If people always acted the way we expected them to. If things lined up neatly behind our hopes.
But would it really? I mean think about it… who would you be if everything you'd ever wanted had gone your way? I'll tell you: not half the person you are today. https://t.co/ei6LbIZ0pM

[Dr Margie Warrell @margiewarrell]

Disappointment isn't a sign of weakness. It's evidence of investment. You can't be disappointed by something you never cared about.
And yet we treat it like something to push through as fast as possible. To fix. To reframe. To get over.
