Cassandra H. Leung: How to Benefit from Being Uncomfortable (Again, and Again)

@Tweet_Cassandra

Many of us face discomfort, anxiety, and other typically negative feelings in our daily lives and work. Sometimes, those feelings can even hold us back and stop us from achieving the goals we strive towards, or doing the best job possible. But what can we do about this? I propose that we use discomfort to our advantage, and learn to benefit from being uncomfortable. That’s exactly what I’ve done for many years, and I want to show you how you can do it too.

This will be the third iteration of this talk, with the first 99-second version given in 2016. I want to return to the stage with a progress report on my journey of self-improvement through embracing discomfort, and show you how you can benefit from your own empowering journey of discomfort and self-improvement.

In most sessions, speakers tell us about their own experiences and give advice on things we can try. But we rarely get to see them in action, doing the things they're suggesting to us. This talk will be different. During this session, I’ll make myself uncomfortable once again, in front of a live audience, so you can see for yourself that I practice what I preach, and that nothing bad will happen if you do the same.

Join me for this exciting, personal, and practical session, to learn how to actively make yourself uncomfortable, and benefit from it in ways you might never have imagined.
