Quotable moments:

"Strengthening that muscle again, our ability to embrace awkwardness and stay in it a little bit longer is directly tied to our ability to take more risks at work, innovate and find that courage and confidence that we all are hoping to find." - Henna Pryor

"Every time we try something new, every time we hit an inflection point, any time we need to have a conversation where something matters, we are inviting awkwardness into our lives." - Henna Pryor

"The more we stay part of the herd, it's the sheep formula, right? When you look and sound like everyone else. You are essentially kind of lumped in with everyone else and people who make those big jumps in their career They have to be willing to stand out." - Henna Pryor
