À propos de cet audio
In this episode of Blind Spots, host Gail McDonald welcomes Andy Vargo—professional speaker, author, life-change coach, podcast host, comedian, and the creator of the “Own Your Awkward” movement. Once described as “Red Bull for your heart,” Andy shares his journey of embracing authenticity after navigating divorce, coming out, and starting over at 40.
Together, they explore why owning your quirks builds trust, how vulnerability strengthens relationships, and the power of reframing self-talk. Andy opens up about creating his book Own Your Awkward Thoughts: Master the Art of Reframing the Way You Think, and his concept of being a “lone-preneur.”
With humor and heart, Andy and Gail dive into blind spots around comparison, borrowed dreams, unrealistic expectations, and the relentless inner critic—and why embracing your awkward may be the key to resilience, connection, and growth.
