Surfing is hard—like, f*cking hard. It isn’t just a sport; it’s a journey of highs, lows, and everything in between. In this episode, we talk about how to cultivate a flexible mindset to keep your stoke alive—even on those tough days when nothing seems to be going right.I share a personal story from a recent surf trip to Baja where I faced unexpected mental challenges in the water. Instead of letting frustration take over, I tapped into the power of flexibility—both in my mindset and my approach to the waves. Whether you’re struggling with a surf slump or just had one of those sessions where you feel totally off, this episode will give you actionable tips to shift your perspective and enjoy the ride.🌊 What we’ll talk about :Expectations: How to ditch them (yes, we all need to sometimes).Mid-session Mindset Shifts: When you’re just not vibing with the ocean, what can you do to make it fun again?Documenting Progress: Why journaling even your worst sessions can be a game-changer (trust me, it’s magic).Resources:Try a membership at The Surf Société with 7 days free.Follow @babelroseShop babelrose.comFollow us your host Laura Day: @confessionsofasurfladyFollow The Surf Société: @surfsociete for surf lady tips from #thesurflab inside the membershipSend me a Message!
