170 / Good Awkward with Henna Pryor

What do we do with all of our awkward parts and our not-so-epic moments? I know we’ve been taught to avoid and ignore them, but what would happen if we accepted them? Even better, what if we embraced them? WHAT IF awkwardness is our secret weapon for risk-taking, especially at work, as our guest today suggests?

Well friends, I don’t know, but we’re about to find out.

Henna Pryor is here to help us embrace the embarrassing and celebrate the cringe, so we can become our best and bravest. Henna is a highly sought-after Workplace Performance Expert, an award-winning 2x TEDx and global keynote speaker, executive coach, and author of the critically acclaimed book Good Awkward. Known for her science-backed approach to improving the performance, habits, and actions of hungry high achievers – in her fun, no-nonsense, no-jargon way – she believes that the key to most people’s success is leaning into awkwardness a little bit longer.

What would be possible for you, for us, if we began to see the things that make us awkward as our superpowers? What if we appreciated and celebrated other people’s awkwardness? 

What would happen if we just said “well’ THAT was awkward” and moved forward with our lives? 

Awkward: it’s what makes us human and connects us in empathy (and humor too)!

Awkward and upward, my friends!
