E88 One Night at a Roller Rink Taught Me This

I thought I was just filming a promo video… but what actually happened completely surprised me. I said YES to stepping into something I hadn’t done in over 30 years, roller skating, and within minutes, I was face-to-face with fear, self-doubt, and that little voice saying, “What if I look ridiculous?” But I did it anyway. And what I found on that rink wasn’t just balance… it was joy, connection, and a powerful reminder of what happens when we say yes before we feel ready. LEARNING BULLETS: *  Saying yes before I feel ready opens the door to growth and unexpected joy  *  Fear of looking silly is often the only thing standing between me and something amazing  *  The environments we create as leaders shape confidence, belonging, and resilience  *  Joy isn’t lost, it’s waiting for me to come back and choose it again  ACTION STEPS: *  Think of one thing you loved doing as a kid and schedule time to try it again this week  *  Invite someone to join you,make it fun, not perfect  *  Share your experience and reflect on how it made you feel  🔗 Connect with Christine:📍Website - https://www.thewisepineapple.com/ [https://www.thewisepineapple.com/] 📍Linkedin profile - https://www.linkedin.com/in/christine-trippi-56105311 [https://www.linkedin.com/in/christine-trippi-56105311] 📍Insta link - https://www.instagram.com/the_wise_pineapple/ [https://www.instagram.com/the_wise_pineapple/] 📍YouTube Link - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU7LZGz1ZsveweIvpCIkrfQ/ [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU7LZGz1ZsveweIvpCIkrfQ/] 📍Join our FREE Facebook group of hoteliers - https://www.facebook.com/share/g/wDiuSA1RbSGqqtJH/ [https://www.facebook.com/share/g/wDiuSA1RbSGqqtJH/] 📍Join the Crown Society! https://www.thewisepineapple.com/crown [https://www.thewisepineapple.com/crown]
