The Story Choosing Courage

Choosing Courage grew from Araceli Canedo Bebbington’s own career transition and the conversations she has had with leaders facing similar crossroads. After 25 years building a global career in banking, Araceli began questioning whether professional success was still aligned with what she wanted from her life. That experience became the foundation for a book about choosing courage over comfort.

Inspired by both her personal journey and years of coaching leaders through career transitions, Araceli wrote Choosing Courage to help readers recognize when it may be time for change and find the confidence to take the next step. The book does not promise all the answers. Instead, it offers stories, frameworks, and reflections to help readers trust themselves through transition.
