21. Opportunity in struggle - with Grace Marshall
Manage episode 439286226 series 3533446
Author of ‘Struggle: the surprising truth, beauty and opportunity hidden in life’s shittier moments’, Grace’s take on struggle fits brilliantly in to the world of board sports, and so we're delighted to be back after the summer break with this episode.
Grace is an award winning speaker, author, chief encourager and struggle strategist, and for before joining this chat, she gave skateboarding a go for the first time.
“This thing we call struggle is quite often the place where we learn, where we discover, where we stretch, where we might find something that that we wouldn’t have found otherwise….sometimes it’s not until we find ourselves in struggle that we discover what we’re made of.”
Episode highlights:
- Struggle as the birth place of our best work.
- Shining a light in the middle of the tunnel, rather than trying to get out of it.
- With curiosity, what are the rich learnings we can glean from our moments of struggle?
- Skateboarding for the first time - the power of invitation to try something new.
- Understanding the four stages of competence.
- High functioning fear - what is it and how does it limit us?
