Dance with your Awkward:)

Feeling awkward is normal and okay...we all go through it
Dance with your awkward
Okay, you might be saying that you are light on your feet, have a great rhythm and follow the beat.
There is no awkward for your fancy shiny dancing shoes!
What about situations you are unfamiliar in? How do you feel then?
Whether its going somewhere new, learning a new skill, meeting someone unfamiliar, trying something out for the first time…
It might feel…
- intimidating
- uncomfortable
in other words…awkward.
Often when we feel this way we might want to avoid, shy away from, avert from… in other words we might try to remove the feeling of awkwardness by removing ourselves from the situation.
What if we lean into, spin and twirl (dance with) and embrace the awkward?
Acknowledge that yes, although this might feel intimidating and uncomfortable – awkward- we can still make it through on the other side of that feeling.
One time you might have thought driving a car was awkward, but you danced with that (and had some serious drivers education training- or that very patient parent who helped you) and now driving is second nature to you.
You can probably come up with countless more examples where you moved through awkward and ended up on the other side, and now feel comfortable and competent.
It’s the same thing when you start a business.
So much unknown that can cause intimidation from the unknown, and as well as feeling uncomfortable.
I’ve been there, and my passion is to help female entrepreneurs, creatives and coaches start their own business.
Will it still be awkward starting your own biz? Perhaps.
But I sure plan to help you get from feeling awkward and unsure to feeling competent and clear as quick as I can:)
Hop on a call with me, let’s talk about how I can help you dance with your awkward and get to feeling competent:)
Your in joy and epic-ness,
Lois
