How comfortable are you with being really bad at something?

Whether it's going to a new gym or an art class or at work, what happens inside of you when everyone else is way better at it than you are?

This week, we chat about:

  1. Why being bad at things is really good for you
  2. Why being a beginner is extremely triggering for a lot of us.
  3. How American culture conditions us into thinking we have to be great at things.
  4. My own experience being bad at things and how it made my life a lot more fun.
  5. Tips on how to get out of that pattern and let yourself have more fun trying new things.
