Everybook I write is a treasure hunt. I never know where a clue might take me. My initial research involved reading a lot of newspaper articles, and in one of those articles Ruth mentioned she kept a scrapbook. I tracked it down at the National Air and Space Museum archives.

While I was there I visited the early flight exhibit at the museum, educated myself about her biplane, and learned about the evolution of flight. A lot of questions popped up about her plane and how she operated it, so I found a retired Navy Commander who pilots and builds these old-style biplanes. He had incredible insights.


Sadly, Genie (as she liked to be called) died last year at the age of 92. I had the thrill of interviewing her in person in 2014, and hearing about her remarkable adventures. Genie also reviewed the manuscript for me.

I use to go up a lot in a friend's Piper colt. Then one day the sky turned black and flying in ice and snow in Maine, I decided it was time to stop being a passenger. It was getting a little scary and stopped being fun. After all, these whims of flight wasn't my passion.


What makes me a fearless leader? I thrive by creating executive alignment around goals and options, using evidence for quick learning loops, and committing to progress transparency to achieve shared goals.


Are you seeking a new product leader role? Or are you a CEO trying to hire a product leader? In this episode, you'll learn how 6 experienced product leaders interview candidates for product leader roles, what they're looking to learn, and what great answers sound like.


I wrote Cult of Chaos because I was itching to write a work of detective fiction that mixes Indian folklore and supernatural creatures into a mystery. Anantya Tantrist happened because I was so bored of all the action taken up by male superheroes and superstars while women sat on the side, as pretty eye-candy. I wanted a story in which a woman gets her hands dirty, has all the adventures, kicks the villains and goes to a bar later to celebrate. And Cult of Chaos is all that and more!


I sit in my study all day and write while she is out on the streets, taking on powerful people, protecting the helpless, solving violent crimes, also having supernatural adventures of all kinds. She is exposed, while I live a protected life. She is all action while I am all thinking. But just the fact that I have been lucky enough to write her story has changed me too, given me wings. I want to be more like her. I want to own the streets too, fearlessly.

Psychological safety at work means that you can be yourself at work and speak up with a dissenting opinion without fear of reprisals. I'm lucky to have worked more often than not in cultures predominantly defined by respect and with colleagues who not only make me feel safe but who also routinely inspire me to bring my best self to the office. Can the same be said for most workplaces in America? If you study this question, you will find that all roads lead to the extraordinary scholarship of Harvard Business School's Amy Edmondson. This editorial reviews the advantages of building a fearless health promotion profession and argues that we need to substitute some natural, understandable tendencies with some unnatural but powerful traits.


When a child grows up in an underprivileged home, where money is not abundant, and they lose both their parents at a young age, this can create an abundance of fear. Given that situation, one can either live in a state of fear or trust that somehow, someway, everything will work out. Keran Fears, a Jefferson County native and Hillsboro, Missouri resident was this child. She describes growing up living very poor, and losing her father at age six, and her mother at age thirteen. Rather than being stuck in a fearful state, resenting the world for the hand she was dealt, she made a conscious choice to believe in the goodness in this world. While Fears may be her last name, Keran has never let fear hold her back.


Helping comes naturally to this energetic and compassionate soul. From entertaining with her fun balloon art and amusing photo booth, to creatively decorating and taking photos, to skillfully cooking and baking, Keran offers her many talents to evoke smiles and laughter, while enhancing connections and fundraising efforts. Keran has created a reputation of giving her time and energy, with no expectation of receiving anything in return. This is extremely evident during the chaotic holiday season, when she cooks homemade meals to feed dozens of those in need each year.


Fortunately, for our community, Keran keeps no secrets about her intention to be of service. She graciously shares her originality and benevolence with a cheery disposition. Keran is living proof that with optimism, trust, and being fearless, anyone can impact others, one itty-bitty smile, balloon, photo, or mortgage at a time.


This is a non-paid endorsement, encouraging you to connect with Keran, while taking a page out of her book. We invite you to release an objective that may be holding you back from sharing your talents with our world. Keran proves that no hardship, obstacle, or schedule needs to interfere with believing in ourselves, and in the goodness around us. Thank you, Keran Fears, for being a fearless leader, consistently and authentically showing up to give back.


If you've been following along on My Modern Met, you've probably seen the dreamy and surreal imagery of Seattle-based photographer Kindra Nikole. For her latest series entitled rsan, Kindra drew inspiration from a visit to Glastonbury, the legendary resting place of Arthur, King of the Britons (aka King Arthur). The photographer now captures the essence of the ancient castle ruins and imbues its historical setting with new meaning. Although women did not originally take part in battle, Kindra's images recreate history, imagining round table knights as strong, fearless women adorned in period armor.


It varies for each image, but for this series, the most planning was done for the images shot in more remote locations, like Breathe, which was shot in the snowy mountains of British Columbia, Canada. Hlestre was shot on site during one of the days I did filming, and the model was wearing nearly 100 pounds of armor, mounted atop the steed. I knew exactly what I wanted each image to look like for this series, so it was mostly a matter of finding the props and armor and then location scouting.


Aside from that, I also charge a few camera batteries the night before and pack a backup just in case, and then the model and I meet up at my place or a coffee shop and head out to the shooting location!


Quite a lot, though it also varies by image. I do light retouching and make sure not to go overboard there. I like it to feel as believable as possible, so I take a light hand to that type of editing. Usually I go nuts with color more than anything else. I love playing with colors and creating a scene that looks otherworldly, and color seems to help achieve that more than any other type of post-processing I tend to do.


Also, armor can get very hot or very cold, which can make for some miserable shooting conditions depending on the environment. Like in snow. I feel like both myself and basically everyone who modeled for this series is the tougher for it.


By any measure, it's good to be Taylor Swift. The 19-year-old has gone from wannabe singer to country superstar in less than three years. Her meteoric rise is accompanied by the kind of critical huzzahs from such august outlets as the New Yorker and the New York Times that many older artists would give their right arm for.


Her second full-length album, 'Fearless,' entered the charts at No. 1 and has bounced back up to the top toward year's end. During our exclusive interview after her AOL Music Sessions taping, despite being tightly booked for back-to-back interviews, Swift is relaxed, convivial and focused as she answers questions about her life in and out of the studio.


I really wanted to make sure it was the right choice, so I took that word "fearless" and I applied [it] to each one of the things that my songs deal with: getting your heart broken, having to face the fact that you're not going to be with the person you thought you were going to be with, someone apologizing to you over and over again for something they're never going to stop doing, having faith that maybe someday things will change -- all of those things I thought had a fearless element to them. Also, I think that the word "fearless" doesn't necessarily mean that you don't have any fears. I think that sometimes being fearless is having fears but jumping anyway.


I bought red lipstick the other day. I'm the kind of person who's really modest with lipstick or any kind of color at all, and I think people are going to throw something at me if I wore red lipstick! But my best friend and I were in the makeup store, and I just looked down and saw the red lipstick and said, 'I need a change. I'm doing it!' I bought it and wore it out of the store, and I felt like I was making this daring change.


On this album, I deal with a lot of fairy tale themes. Sometimes they turn out good, sometimes they turn out bad. 'Love Story' was a really happy ending -- you put everything you have into love and it works out. Then in the song 'White Horse,' you put everything you have into love and you get your heart broken. It blew my mind that such a personal song was the one people were talking the most about, because I always felt like the more personal my songs were, the more I could just relate to them. But, really, more people have been able to relate to those songs -- the ones that I wrote when I was really going through something terrible.
