Next time you're overwhelmed… Try this: It's a trick I was taught as a young fighter pilot while learning to air refuel. I found myself overcontrolling the aircraft, creating a pilot-induced oscillation (PIO). Until an instructor gave me one simple piece of advice: "MACE, wiggle your toes." At first, it sounded crazy, but it worked.😀 My grip loosened. My focus sharpened. My body calmed. Now I use it all the time. Try it next time you're stressed and you feel that anxiety meter getting higher. I

Michelle “MACE” Curran | Former Fighter Pilot ➡️ Storyteller on Instagram: "The day I hit a vulture with my jet at 400 mph changed the way I think about control. One second, I was soaring over the jungles of Colombia. The next, a bird with a six-foot wingspan smashed into my aircraft. In that moment, panic was the easy option. But panic never helps you handle the jet. Or lead a team. Or navigate life. So instead, I did what fighter pilots are trained to do: Maintain control. Analyze the availabl

Michelle “MACE” Curran | Former Fighter Pilot ➡️ Storyteller on Instagram: "Fear doesn’t make you weaker, it just makes the ground feel further away. The skill, the beam, you ... nothing’s changed. What changes is how you see it. That’s why elite performers don’t try to erase fear… they retrain it. They study it, simulate success, and lock their focus on the horizon, not the fall. Because courage isn’t the absence of fear. It’s mastering your response to it."

Michelle “MACE” Curran | Former Fighter Pilot ➡️ Storyteller on Instagram: "High performers don’t judge beginners. They recognize the courage it takes to start because they remember being there. The criticism usually comes from the sidelines. The respect comes from those in the arena. Remember this next time someone chimes in with their opinions on your attempts."
