I thought I was just filming a promo video… but what actually happened completely surprised me.
I said YES to stepping into something I hadn’t done in over 30 years, roller skating, and within minutes, I was face-to-face with fear, self-doubt, and that little voice saying, “What if I look ridiculous?”
But I did it anyway.
And what I found on that rink wasn’t just balance… it was joy, connection, and a powerful reminder of what happens when we say yes before we feel ready.

LEARNING BULLETS:

•  Saying yes before I feel ready opens the door to growth and unexpected joy 
•  Fear of looking silly is often the only thing standing between me and something amazing 
•  The environments we create as leaders shape confidence, belonging, and resilience 
•  Joy isn’t lost, it’s waiting for me to come back and choose it again 

ACTION STEPS:

•  Think of one thing you loved doing as a kid and schedule time to try it again this week 
•  Invite someone to join you,make it fun, not perfect 
•  Share your experience and reflect on how it made you feel
