Ever thought about trying something new and instantly heard that little voice saying, "But what if I'm rubbish at it?" Yep — me too.

In this episode, I share what happened when I tried surfing for the first time (at 40, in the rain, and in a wetsuit I nearly cried over). From the anxiety leading up to it, to the self-doubt, to watching my daughter voice the exact fears I was secretly holding onto — this story is about more than surfing.

It's about why trying something new as an adult is so hard, how perfectionism and body image hold us back, and why actually showing up is sometimes the biggest win of all.

Whether it's a creative class, a sport, or just something that's been sitting on your "one day" list — this episode is your nudge to stop waiting for confidence to magically appear. You don't have to be good to start. You just need to be brave enough to try.

✨ You'll hear about:

• Why adults are so resistant to trying new things
• How body image, confidence and perfectionism tie into it
• The power of "just showing up"
• Modelling bravery for our kids
• Why it's okay to suck at something and still love doing it

👉 If you've ever told yourself "I can't do that", I hope this helps you realise — you can. And it might even be fun.
