When I’m under pressure, I tend to contract. I want to get things right, map everything out, stay in control and avoid mistakes.
I take things seriously.
But improvisation keeps reminding me that life often feels lighter (or less costly) another way - through play, experimentation, small offers, and seeing what comes back.
Fresh out of an improv intensive in London, join me for an exploration the difference between perfectionism and playfulness, between trying to force the “right” answer and letting something emerge through curiosity, responsiveness and trust. This lands especially strongly for me in my business right now, but it applies just as much to your relationships, career, creativity and life in general.
If you’re someone who gets tight, serious or over-responsible when things matter, this episode might come as relief.
