Listen "🌴259. Left Handers Are Awesome"
Episode Synopsis
Today’s episode comes to you from my hotel room in Melbourne — in my hiking gear, ready to head out on a 20km walk with friends. But before the walk, I had dinner last night with a small group (13 or 14 of us) and Michael Bungay Stanier kicked things off with a killer icebreaker: Share two essential things about yourself.What I shared surprised even me. The first thing? I’m left-handed. After 250+ podcast episodes I’ve never mentioned it, but honestly, it shapes how I see and navigate the world. From flipcharts and coffee cups to netball courts and even a silly handshake with Justin Langer — being a leftie has taught me adaptability, resilience, and even connection.In this episode, I riff on:Why left-handed people instantly bond with each otherThe little daily frictions of living in a right-handed worldSome surprising research on the advantages of being left-handedWhy I once bought the domain Left Hand LeadersThe second “essential thing” I shared at dinner (hint: it’s very Queensland of me)If you’re left-handed, I think you’ll get this one instantly. If you’re right-handed, well, now you know our secret.Sign up for free for my best articles every week: Work Fame.Show notes for every episode at https://podcast.leannehughes.comP.S.
