Welcome to the first episode of Dare to Be Human!

In this first episode you'll meet your hosts Kat and Alex as they discuss the performance of you! How and why do we inhibit our choices of how we show up and present ourselves? What can we do to be more aware of our performances choice and, with that knowledge, how can we stretch ourselves to better achieve our goals? We explore personality tests and the lessons to take away from an infamous experiment with marshmallows.

There's also an exercise at the end of the episode about expanding your range of performance options. It's a whole lot of fun and you can find instructions to play along at home at daretobehumanpodcast.com. Reference Links:
