Start time where you are: Your time zone couldn't be detected
In a world that often misunderstands outliers, finding your people isn't just comforting - it's crucial. Join executive coach and weirdly brilliant author @jasonshen for an intimate conversation about connection, community, and the art of bringing brilliant weirdos together.
What happens when outliers find each other? They make magic happen. Let’s explore the delicate dance of friendship, collaboration, and support that emerges when unconventional minds connect. How some of the most powerful relationships start with “You too? I thought I was the only one!” How do we help others see we’re on the same team? And why might hosting a dinner party be more valuable than attending another conference?
Through stories and shared experiences, we’ll examine the subtle art of finding champions, cultivating supporters, and building genuine relationships in a world that often prizes conformity. We’ll discuss how different outliers have built their circles while staying true to themselves. Let’s talk about what it means to find collaborators who energize rather than deplete us, and why the best communities often start with one person brave enough to gather others.
Every movement starts with the fringe and the greatest innovations emerges from deviants. What is it actually like to be an outlier? When are talents, tendencies, and backgrounds clash with the majority? How do we carve a path our own without letting our unconventional nature get us in trouble? Join Jason Shen, the outlier coach and author of WEIRDLY BRILLIANT for a joyful, illuminating and unexpected salon series about understanding, adapting, and flourishing in a world designed for typical brains and ordinary minds.
This salon is part of The Outlier Series—a 4 part Interintellect Salon Series hosted by Jason Shen—author of Weirdly Brilliant—How Ambitious Outliers Swing Big, Own Their Genius, and Play a Different Game
