Business as UNusual
Risky Business
Is the relentless push toward positive thinking actually leaving you underprepared for the risks that matter? In this solo episode of Business as UNusual, Aicila pushes back on the popular reframe that "what could go right" is the more evolved question — and makes the case for why looking directly at what could go wrong is one of the most underrated moves in business.
Aicila unpacks why fear of risk is often a momentum energy problem in disguise, shares a story from her nonprofit days where she put a month of her own salary on the line, and offers a simple framework for turning risk assessment into self-trust. If you've been circling a decision without being able to commit, this episode will give you some news ways to think about the leap.
