The Conversations We're Not Having with Andrew Blotky
Episode 29
Thursday, 11 September, 2025
We all communicate... but are we really saying what matters? So often, the most critical conversations at work are the ones we avoid. We dodge them to keep the peace, to protect ourselves, or because no one ever taught us how to navigate them well."Anything worth communicating is because you want somebody to know, do, or feel something. If it’s not landing, it doesn’t matter how you said it." - Andrew BlotkyIn this episode of Unserious, we dig into what gets in the way of honest dialogue—and what becomes possible when we move through it. Leadership and communications expert Andrew Blotky, author of Honestly Speaking: How the Way We Communicate Transforms Leadership, Love, and Life and founder of Azure Leadership Group joins us to explore:Why self-awareness (and knowing your audience) matters more than what you sayHow clarity is one of the most underrated leadership superpowersWays to give (and get) feedback that actually builds trustSimple frameworks for listening better, fostering inclusion, and making hard conversations less scaryIt’s candid, a little irreverent, and full of practical wisdom you can bring to your next meeting.Follow Andrew Blotky on LinkedIn and learn more about his coaching and consulting practice at www.azureleadership.com.
