Swimming has humbled me more than any gym session ever could.
I’m 38, I coach people for a living, I’ve “done” a triathlon… and I still walked back into swim lessons feeling nervous as f**k…
But here’s the thing,growth doesn’t happen where you feel comfortable.
A lot of people think they need to be fit before they start. Or confident before they try. Truth is, sometimes you just have to be willing to be s**t at something long enough to improve at it.
So if there’s something you’ve been putting off because it scares you a bit… maybe this is your sign to start. 🌊
Big shoutout to for putting me through my paces again!! Best in the biz 🏊♂️
