Tweetable Quotes
“I loved the interview part of journalism the best. I wish I could just do interviews without writing the stories, but there was no medium for that. And then I listened to podcasts, and I loved Tim Ferriss's show, but I'd always wished he'd interviewed more women and talked about adventure because that's my love language.”
“I think surfing is just a really unique activity. It demands you to be present, demands you to go with the flow. And you're never going to be that good at it unless you're really lucky.”
“I used to think you needed to claw your way up a mountain and no, let go and surrender to the elements and the forces around you. If it's meant to happen, it will. You just have to have a little bit more grace. So that's probably the biggest thing I've changed my mind about, like, not efforting as much, more like going with the flow. Your Ego Is Not Your Amigo, Let Go & Surrender”
