EPISODE 5: CURIOSITY IS YOUR SECRET WEAPON


IN THIS EPISODE

Think cleverness is your career superpower? Think again. In this episode, we dismantles the myth that you need to be the smartest in the room, and reveals why strategic curiosity is often the real game-changer. From asking better questions to noticing hidden patterns, this one’s for the quiet thinkers, the question-askers, and anyone who’s ever been told to “stop overthinking.”


We’ll also unpack the 5 Curiosity Styles and how they can give you the edge when it comes to learning fast, influencing wisely, and making bold, intentional career moves.

Want to scribble? Use this transcript.

Want to reflect?

Remember reflection is how you turn experience into momentum. This tool is your thinking space-minus the post-it chaos.

You don't need courageous conversations or radical rethinks. Our conversation tools help leaders have simple conversations about how, together, the team can get better and better.

Before you go ....

Take a minute. Not for us, for you.

What made you nod?

What made you wince?

That’s where the magic lives.

If something clicked today, don’t let it stay a passing thought. Scribble it down. Say it out loud. Try it tomorrow, even if it’s messy. Especially if it’s messy.

Oh, and if someone popped into your head while listening? That’s not random. Send this their way. Share the episode. Share the fire.

And finally, don’t forget your Pocket Power-Up. Because bold moves start with tiny, intentional ones. We made this bit for the you-who-takes-action.
