unapprehensive
Calm about outcomes
Unapprehensive describes someone who is not anxious, worried, or fearful about something that might reasonably cause concern.
Where an apprehensive person anticipates trouble or danger with unease, an unapprehensive one remains calm or unconcerned.
She seemed entirely unapprehensive about the upcoming surgery.
The word sometimes suggests a positive composure, other times a failure to recognize genuine risk.
