On this podcast Shelby Stanger shares her view of what it means to live life to the fullest while simultaneously having to deal with the realities of life as well as what gives her life meaning. Shelby explains how she learned to deal with rejection of her article submissions as a journalist and how she managed to overcome the shock and despair that arose due to the unexpected early death of her father. As a self described “surfer girl,” Shelby has sand-boarded down desolate dunes in South Africa, standup paddled in a remote part of the Amazon river in Brazil, and surfed big waves in Indonesia and New Zealand. She describes how surfing produces a type of stillness and mindfulness that produces flow. Shelby says that when you’re surfing, there’s no time to think, so you have to learn how to “let go” and trust your instincts. Shelby also explains how she empowers women by teaching them to surf – teaching them to break through fear barriers which gives them courage to rise to the occasion in other areas of their lives.
