"The Awkward Person's Guide to Not Being Awkward"

Details

You know that feeling...

When someone asks you a question and your brain just... freezes?

When you think of the perfect comeback 3 hours too late?

When you're watching everyone else have effortless conversations while you're calculating the exact right moment to escape to the bathroom?

Yeah. We've been there.

This isn't therapy.

This isn't "fake it till you make it" bullshit.

This is practical training for people whose brains work faster than their mouths.

For people who are hilarious in group chats but somehow become mute in meetings.
For anyone who's tired of watching life happen while they figure out what to say.

We're gonna teach you some simple techniques that help you think on your feet without overthinking yourself into paralysis.

No forced sharing circles.

No "tell us your biggest fear."

No spotlight moments unless you want them.

Just low-pressure practice with people who get it.

Most of us started out terrified too.

The difference? We learned some tricks that make quick thinking feel automatic instead of terrifying.

Here's what happens:

  • You'll practice responding without having the "perfect" answer
  • You'll discover you're way funnier than you think
  • You'll leave with tools you can use immediately
  • You'll realize most people are too worried about themselves to judge you

Perfect for:

  • People who rehearse conversations in their head
  • Anyone who wishes they were quicker in social situations
  • Introverts who want to feel confident in groups
  • Anyone tired of beating themselves up for being "slow"

The goal isn't to turn you into someone else.

It's to help you become a faster, more confident version of yourself.

Small group. Supportive environment. Zero judgment.

Optional drinks after for anyone who wants to keep practicing their newfound social superpowers.
