“Vulnerability is the birthplace of
innovation, creativity and change.”
- Brené Brown

13
Control.

14
Focus is a byproduct
of choice.

15
Momentum.

16
Momentum =
Focus + Action.
Action requires
commitment.

18
Invisible Audience.

19
Maturity.

20
Chering.

21
Write down one goal.

22
What have you been
avoiding?
What’s your superpower?
Buddy up.
Awesomeness is found in the darkest
parts of yourself. The parts of yourself
you try to hide, avoid and keep - at all
costs - unseen by the world.
Q+A
