What does it mean to be brave?
To a community, bravery can take on many different molds.
For Brave Grand Rapids counselor Allison Waldron, bravery continues to be doing the hard thing.
"It means saying 'no,' when saying 'yes' might be the easier option. It means having that difficult conversation with a friend or family member," she says. "It means being vulnerable and speaking up for yourself, even though it can be emotionally draining and uncomfortable."
It's not an easy thing to do, but for many in Grand Rapids it can be all they have. At Brave, Waldron is hoping to help local youth find the confidence to live intentionally. Within the majestic brick walls of the 103 College Ave estate Waldron works with young clients on issues related to assertiveness and identity, self-worth, grief, and beyond.
"Brave Grand Rapids came to be through a vision to serve the young adult community through counseling and to provide a place where people can come to feel safe," she says, "The entire process of counseling involves taking risks: from sending an email to the final session, bravery is involved."
“The most understanding, gentle, and beautiful soul to help you on your journey, Allison is Brave personified.
