Everyone has those moments that make us want to crawl under a rock and disappear forever. But what if those awkward encounters are actually bringing us closer together?
To start this episode, we explore workplace awkwardness. Technology gets special attention with stories about being "on mute" in virtual meetings—or worse, not realizing you're NOT on mute while handling personal business during work calls.
The conversation takes delightful turns through social awkwardness territory. Even romantic awkwardness appears, with Gen sharing a particularly vulnerable story from early in her relationship with Kory that somehow strengthened rather than damaged their connection.
What makes this episode special is the underlying message: awkward moments aren't just embarrassing experiences to endure—they're elevators that can either lift us up through laughter and learning or keep us stuck in shame. In times when life feels increasingly serious and divided, these shared human experiences remind us of our common ground.
Do you have an awkward story to share? We'd love to hear it! Message us for a chance to have your story featured in an upcoming episode. Look up, and let's elevate together!
