Changemaking starts with jumping out of your comfort zone

[This is a training event in Changemaker Gear Up Training Series (GUTS)*]

How long have you stayed in your comfort zone? Do you feel stuck but struggle to get out of it? Stepping out of comfort zone is always easier said than done. As a changemaker, leaving your comfort zone allows you to empathize deeply, think out of the box and take initiatives in turning ideas into actions for the good of all. To grow, you need to take risks and embrace unknowns. Through adventure-based challenge activities, you will explore your fears and extend your comfort zone.
