Summary

The world can seem like a dark place, but if there are people, there have been inspirational figures. Their light still shines hope for the future.

Inspiration is all around us, and it always has been. Take any year in history, and you'll find tales of resilience, courage, and kindness. Stories that make you remember the world is a beautiful place, and encourage you to live your best life.

If you're feeling the weight of the world and pulls of negativity, you need inspiration if you feel stuck and not on the right path.

Brave to Famous has stories to inspire and encourage such as:

  • The woman who went down in history as "the mother of the civil rights movement"
  • Exactly why Nelson Mandela continues to be an inspiration to people all over the world
  • The anti-war boxer–and his surprising friendship with Martin Luther King Jr.
  • The man behind the Tesla Coil and his inspirational story about courage
  • How Britain’s rule in India was defeated with non-violent protests–and the stirring story of the man behind it all
  • Inspirational women who fought hard and shouted loud–and transformed the world forever
  • The incredible story of one man who voluntarily went to Auschwitz–and opened the eyes of the world
  • The courage of one woman who changed our perception of disability…and paved the way for a brighter and more accepting future
  • Why the world needs dreamers as much as it needs practical people

Whether everyday life is getting you down or you’re beginning to despair at the state of the planet, there’s only one thing you need: A reminder that there’s good out there–and inspirational people who have given everything they’ve got to make our world a better place.

Discover your daily dose of inspiration and hope.
