Our podcast is all about celebrating fresh starts, or piloting journeys, and sometimes part of trying something new or starting over is learning to be a beginner again. Whether you’re picking up a new hobby or career, or just trying to stay at the top of your game for something you’ve been doing for years, having a beginner’s mindset is crucial.
We discuss:
- leading with curiosity and an open mind
- getting comfortable trying new things and failing
- the pitfalls of overpreparation
- the Japanese concept of “shoshin”
- tips for maintaining a beginner’s mindset
- balancing confidence and ego when you’re already an “expert”
- finding a “beginner buddy”
- & so much more!
