Who is behind Scare Your Soul?
Soulsters (our community member) are the heart of Scare Your Soul. They are courageous people from around the world who possess a growth mindset. A growth mindset is the attitude that we can get smarter, happier, and better through hard work and practice. It requires grit and openness. “In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point.” (Carol Dweck)
The volunteer team behind Scare Your Soul includes Scott Simon, David Edelman, Dahlia Fisher, Ilana Isakov-Katz, Sara Luehring, Lora DiFranco and Erica Starrfield.
