Every single one of us has moments when we feel intimidated, scared, not good enough or even like an impostor. It’s a struggle that we all deal with, some of us more often than others. This state of uneasiness can surface in all sorts of situations. A job interview, public speaking, the first day/week/month at a new job or graduate program, and launching a new business are just a few of the many examples. But, how amazing would it be if you could magically turn off that feeling, and activate your awesomeness? If you could, within two minutes, transform your feelings of inadequacy into genuine self-empowerment? Thanks to social psychologist and Harvard Business School Associate Professor Amy Cuddy, you can. It’s called “power posing.” And power posing can change your life!
Cuddy has spent years researching human interactions and the ways in which we are influenced by and perceive others. Through her study on power posing, Cuddy found that body language can change the way you feel about yourself, raise your self-confidence and, thus, help others to view you as more powerful.
I watched Cuddy’s TEDTalks video about a month ago. Her brilliance blew me away, and her personal story deeply moved me. The knowledge she shares has the potential to change your life. Follow her tips, and you will see a big transformation. A huge transformation! The video is about 20 minutes long, and will be the most valuable 20 minutes you’ve ever spent. (Totally worth it, yo!)
I’ve been incorporating Amy Cuddy’s power posing technique into both my personal and professional life, and wow what a difference! I want all of my clients to watch this amazing video because it will help them feel even more confident during our shoot, and help them in many areas of their life.
