Stage Fright (take 2) -

When a key client completely pivots mid-meeting, a project scope shifts overnight, or a live presentation derails—do you freeze and stick rigidly to the script, or do you adapt on your feet with calm, authentic confidence?

I started as an actor. It felt right… until it didn’t.

Then I had kids, and suddenly I needed “real jobs”. I tried lots of them.

Helping people. Supporting teams. Coaching without calling it coaching. But none of those jobs felt like me.

They were about ticking boxes, staying inside the lines, climbing ladders I didn’t want to climb.

Eventually, I hit redundancy — and a wall.

So I went back to something I’d always loved: improvisation.

And I didn’t just find my mojo again — I found a philosophy.

Mutual support.
Empathy.
Trust.
Integrity.
Collaboration.

Fun.

I condensed it into one line: “Fun shouldn’t be hard work, but hard work should be fun.”

And here’s the elephant in the room:

We’re all winging it. All the time.

I’m not climbing a ladder anymore.

I’m playing Snakes and Ladders — and helping others do the same.

Coaching with The Curve isn’t about fixing problems.

It’s about generating momentum.

Every month we ask:

• What’s changed?
• What do you need now?
• What’s your biggest challenge today?
• What went well?
• What was difficult?
• Where are you now?

The Curve helps you stop, reflect, and learn — visually.

It keeps you focused on the most important things.

And it stretches you, because change doesn’t happen without change.

The Curve isn’t just a tool.

It’s your future, mapped.

Creative Decision Making:

"There's a misconception in business that you have to be 100% correct 100% of the time. The truth is you have to be 100% correct about 10% of the time... the rest of the time you have to just make decisions."

Improv teaches confident risk-taking. Make the call, adapt, move forward.

The Power of "Yes, And"

In improv, we don't shut ideas down—we build on them. "Yes, and..." is a mindset that fuels creativity, collaboration, and innovation.

Tina Fey distilled it into four rules.

AGREE (Say Yes…)
Yes, And… (don’t be afraid to contribute)
MAKE STATEMENTS (Don’t ask questions all the time)
THERE ARE NO MISTAKES (only opportunities)

Forbes, CNN, and Bloomberg have all explored why businesses are turning to improv for team development. There's something to this.
