#162 What Aqua Zumba Taught Me About Myself

from Finding Joy in the Hard · host Suzanne Andora Barron

A simple Aqua Zumba class had me take a look at some things I don't like about myself. In this episode, I share what happened when I found myself in a class where everyone else seemed to know what they were doing—and what it revealed about my own thoughts, assumptions, and desire to appear like I have it all together.Do you ever hold yourself back because you don't want others to see you in that awkward, unsure phase?  That was definitely me. I didn't get out of the pool to get lighter weights and I tried to pretend I knew what I was doing when I was flailing about. So often we focus on the uncertainty. What we miss is the bravery it took to try something new. Note: This episode was recorded during the period when wildfire smoke affected air quality across the northeastern United States.The information presented on this podcast is for educational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose or prescribe for any medical or psychological condition, nor to prevent, treat, mitigate or cure any such conditions.
