Join the founding cohort of The AWK TALK Challenge
Awkward avoidant → socially courageous in 30 days.

Be among the first to bring the AWK TALK Challenge to your team, campus, or community — and lock in the lowest price it will ever be!

Most of us want avoid awkwardness — but this tendency is one of the biggest barriers to connection. The moment that squirmy, uncomfortable feeling shows up, we withdraw — from returning that long overdue text, or inviting that new acquaintance to coffee, or having that hard conversation we keep putting off. That avoidance adds up — and over time it leaves us lonelier.

The AWK TALK Challenge flips that — turning awkwardness from a red light into a green one. Every deck includes 36 animal pun cards, each one designed to help you reach out, check in, repair a relationship, or connect with someone new. The puns deliberately embrace the awkwardness — lowering the stakes and making it easier to reach out.

Use the cards however you like — or take the Challenge:

The AWK TALK Challenge is simple: choose one card a day, sign it, and give it to someone in your life.

The result? Participants stop treating awkwardness like a red light, and strengthen relationships one tiny act of social courage at a time.

Want to bring the Challenge to your team, campus, or community?
Challenge Kits include everything you need:

• A Facilitator’s Guide — to launch the Challenge with your team, class, or organization. No experience required.

• A personal AWK TALK deck for each participant — 36 unique animal pun cards, each one a tiny act of social courage waiting to be sent.

• An I Speak Awkward sticker for each participant — a public signal that you're in the Challenge and open to connection, even if it’s a little messy.

• Pre- and post-assessment to measure changes in connection and social confidence — with shareable results to demonstrate value to your organization.

Founding cohort pricing ends July 24, 2026. After that, prices will increase by $2 per participant. A Challenge Kit for 100 participants saves you $200 with founding cohort pricing.

Please note: AWK TALK decks are currently in production. This is a pre-order — kits will ship in late September, in time to run the Challenge in October. Your founding cohort pricing is locked in today.
