In this nostalgic, funny, and deeply relatable episode, we travel back to the 1980s—a time of questionable parenting, dangerous toys, and a golden fiberglass skateboard known only as The Yellow Peril.

What starts as a childhood story about learning one flashy but useless trick turns into something much more meaningful: a reflection on the habits we cling to, the ways we try to feel powerful, and what it takes to grow beyond what's familiar.

You'll hear:
  • Why we stick with the "one trick" that once made us feel strong
  • How failure and frustration shape our coping patterns
  • The subtle difference between being good at something and it being good for us
  • A reminder that growth often means letting go of what used to work

Whether you're stuck in a routine, repeating old patterns, or just love a great story that sneaks in some wisdom, this episode is for you.

🎧 Listen now and ask yourself: What’s your version of the spinning skateboard trick?
