This episode is part two of my conversation with Dr. Myriam Hadnes (https://workshops.work/) , recorded right on my couch. Yesterday, we dove into the idea of unprofessionalismâwhy getting rejected for who you actually are is better than being accepted for wearing a mask.
Today, we keep that thread going and explore:
â Why setting boundaries in business is a form of âunprofessionalismâ (and why itâs actually freeing)
â The problem with getting accepted for a version of yourself that isnât you
â How corporate life can embrace micro-moments of unprofessionalism without losing credibility
â Why AI will always be more polished than usâand why thatâs exactly why we should be human
â The power of asking "why not?" to break through hesitation and make bold moves
Oh, and we also talk about why neither of us actually runs a communityâeven though, by all logic, we should!
Plus, we go deep into the idea that the best opportunities often come from simply trying things out and seeing what happens.
This was such a fun chat, and if youâre feeling stuck or hesitant about your next big move, this episode will challenge you to ask: why not?
đ§ Enjoy the listen, and Iâll catch you tomorrow!
