It’s a complex personal scenario: accepting the fact that we all have flaws. Putting our realisations into perspective is one aspect of our life we may not always fine tune.
A self-defined ‘quirky corporate’, Murch is a keynote speaker, facilitator, trainer and mentor in strategic planning and workforce culture. This is a self-discovery: be ready to take your flaws and turn them into flawsome!
“To make change happen, you are in charge, and in your hand is a way forward.”
According to Murch, we are the authors of our journey. Flawsome is a great reminder that we all get to decide the story. You get the opportunity to self-reflect and to become aware.
This book captivates as author and feedback expert, Georgia Murch, teaches you that being flawsome is not just about accepting your flaws, your inadequacies and the things you hide. It’s also about understanding where they come from and rewriting how you see yourself, so you can live as you are. It’s not just about making peace with your shortcomings and imperfections, but knowing that without them you are not you. Your flaws make you who you are. ‘The journey to being whole is learning to be holey’ as you find acceptance in being you. Don’t be hard on yourself: accept our imperfections and learn to be ourselves — flaws and all.
Murch is not a ‘conventional human’. She’s a little left of centre. Her MO is helping people make peace with who they are. The one constant in her global career has been her determination to ensure we all have real conversations – the ones we need to have with each other and with ourselves.
