When we have no relevant experience or expertise, the vulnerability, uncertainty, and fear of these firsts can be overwhelming. Yet, showing up and pushing ourselves past the awkward, learner stage is how we get braver. (Brené Brown)
Fumbling First Try
5.5 minutes
Professor and author Brené Brown talks about "effing first tries" but which I call "fumbling first tries." These are the firsts cited in the quote above—those that involve that awkward learner stage. And yes, getting through our FFTs makes us braver!

Slides Serve Our Story
12 minutes
When we give presentations, it's best if our slides serve our story—rather than letting our story serve our slides. How to do that? Sparse, well-organized text and lots of pictures.
