23. what i’m learning from being bad at new things
in this unscripted episode, i share the joy (and nerves) of trying things for the first time, from making yogurt, ceramics, my first kung fu class, and more. we talk beginner’s mind, novelty, and why playing with new experiences rewires your brain and softens perfectionism. if you’ve been craving a gentle nudge to begin, this is it.
show notes:
why i hit record with no script (letting authenticity lead)
dreams, preparedness, and the part of me that wants freedom from over-planning
being a beginner on purpose: choosing joy over mastery
perfectionism vs play: how “being bad” at something can be spiritual practice
novelty, dopamine, and neuroplasticity: why your brain loves new
breaking autopilot: tiny experiments that shift identity (“i’m someone who tries things”)
- creative ways to learn: youtube university, bartering, shadowing, and asking for mentorship
- money shouldn’t be the barrier: scrappy ways to get reps without breaking the bank
- the inner child lens: letting little-you be excited for your next first
