I am so awkward.

I am too awkward to have this conversation.

That is a limiting belief of your own design.

What you're actually doing, and I would like you to change this language right now, is I am feeling awkward right now.

I'm feeling awkward at this networking event.

I'm feeling awkward about the comment I made in the meeting.

I'm feeling embarrassed about the way that went down.

A feeling is transient.

A feeling is real, but it will pass.

It does not define who you are.

At a very minimum, before you get into the steps of naming it and using humor and all of that, I want you to please spend a little energy believing you are not an awkward person.

You are a person who feels awkward from time to time and that truth will set you free.

Brave.

Brave.

I think if you can embody what it means to be good awkward, you are unstoppable.

Every risk is in your reach.

So brave.

Oh God, how do I choose?

I'm going to say recent.

So this is somebody I have a partnership with now, but my friend, Harry Wilson, he and I partnered together with a firm called Limitless Minds and it's a startup.
