We talk about why totally sucking at something can be awesome, how to let go of our egos, and why perfectionism and being overly busy can be a trap. We also dive into how we can focus less on our social media feeds, and focus more on the relationships we have, the way we make people feel, and the energy we put into the world.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\">Listen to this episode if:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\">You want to try something, but you\u2019re afraid you\u2019ll suck.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">You are over being busy.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">You want to find your community.<\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\">You are ready to focus on what\u2019s important in life.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Connect with Karen:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/krinaldi.com\">Website<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/karenrinaldiwriter\/\">Facebook<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/rinaldiwave\/\">Instagram<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/krinaldi1\">Twitter<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Connect with David:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.davidromanelli.com\">Website<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Dave-Romanelli\/\">Facebook<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/wiseelders\/\">Instagram<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/yeahdave\">Twitter<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transcript Karen Rinaldi is the author of It\u2019s Great to Suck at Something, a book about the joy she found in pursuit of surfing, a sport she says she\u2019ll never be good at.
