The topic for today's episode was inspired by my daughter who recently stumbled her way through a phone call with our veterinarian's office when we needed our dog's vaccination record emailed in time for her visit to the dog groomer.  While her side of the call was a bit awkward, she got the result she needed.That phone call reminded me that whenever we step out of our comfort zone, it can feel awkward and messy at first. But, the more we practice showing up in new ways, the easier it becomes. And I'm sure the next time my daughter needs to call the vet, or anyone else, to ask for what she needs, it will be easier. I'd like to revise the old saying "practice makes perfect" to "practice makes easier." Instead of striving for perfection, let's strive to show up, even if imperfectly. A common situation that causes nervousness and anxiety, resulting in some awkward conversation is interviewing for a job. If it's been a few years, those first couple of interviews can be a little rough! Like everything else, practice makes easier and mock interviews are a great way to gear up for the real thing.
