  • Pause to Thrive: Surf's Transformative Break
    Aug 9 2023

    Hey there beautiful friends! This episode is a reminder that taking a break from surfing isn't a setback; it's an invitation to embrace rest, renewal, and exploration, leading us to the beauty that lies in every pause.

    Life's curveballs sometimes lead us to the shore, presenting an opportunity for transformation, growth, and self-discovery that we might not have anticipated. It's a counterintuitive pause that holds the potential to rejuvenate and empower us in surprising ways.

    Amidst the excitement of chasing those perfect waves, we often overlook the treasures hidden within the art of rest and recovery. Stepping back onto your surfboard after a pause isn't just rejuvenating; it's like entering a realm of possibilities, riding each wave with newfound intention.

    Taking a break from surfing is akin to hitting the reset button for the mind. Picture yourself on the shore, free from the adrenaline rush, reflecting, recharging, and finding inner zen. Just as the ocean experiences moments of calm, this pause brings an equilibrium to life's experiences, reminding us of the beauty in both action and contemplation.

    Stepping away can provide fresh perspectives, offering a panoramic view of our approach and goals. It's like catching a wave from a different angle, infusing routine rides with invigorating new outlooks.

    Rediscovering the initial spark that drew us to surfing is another gift of a break. Returning with renewed passion, each glide, paddle, and ride is an expression of our connection with the ocean.

    And let's not forget the exploration beyond the break – a chance to diversify experiences, embracing uncharted territories and hidden treasures.

  • Rising above the comparison game in surfing
    Jul 26 2023

    Hey there beautiful friends! In this week’s episode I delve into the ever-tricky challenge of comparison. You know, that famous saying, "Comparison is the thief of joy"? It resonates not just in life but also in our surfing escapades.

    Surfing the social waves can be quite a wild ride with platforms like Instagram and Facebook showcasing people's epic surfing moments. It's easy to feel inadequate, but let's remember that social media often hides the spills and struggles. Everyone's journey has its ups and downs!

    I've fallen into the comparison trap too, but I've learned some helpful techniques to combat it. Practising gratitude, flipping the script on comparison, and using my past self as a benchmark has been transformative. 

    I hope the tidbits I share leave you feeling empowered and ready to face the challenge of comparison in surfing and in life.

    As always, I would love to connect with you and continue the conversation - let’s inspire one another as we ride the waves of life together.

  • Dealing with frustration and setbacks in surfing
    Jun 13 2023

    Hey beautiful people!

    Welcome back to the Surf Mish Society podcast.

    Today, let's dive into a topic that hits close to home for many of us—those frustrating moments when it feels like we're not progressing fast enough.

    Trust me, I've been there too. But here's the thing: the struggle is a natural part of the journey. It's in those moments of frustration that our character is forged and our determination strengthens.

    So, if you're feeling stuck, remember that you're not alone. Progress takes time, and every surfer has their own unique path.

    Embrace the experiences and growth you achieve along the way. Reflect on why you fell in love with surfing, find motivation in those feel-good moments, be patient, be persistent, and surround yourself with uplifting and inspiring surfers.

    Remember, progress is not always linear, but trust that you're still moving forward. There is light at the end of the tunnel, and one day, you'll be riding the waves you once dreamed of.

    So stay salty and keep those good vibes flowing!
