What Happened In Panama: The Adventure That Changed Who I Am-Part 2

In Part 2 of the story behind *Surfing Your Edge*, Kristine takes us to Panama, where she created the first Surfing Your Edge experience while confronting her own lifelong fear of open water. What unfolded taught her that she didn’t have to be fearless—or have everything figured out—to lead others into meaningful transformation. She discovered that surfing your edge isn’t really about surfing. It’s about giving yourself permission to pursue the adventures and possibilities calling you forward—and bringing what you discover back into your everyday life. **The Shift Beneath the Words:** - The Origins of Surfing Your Edge - Becoming the Person Who Can Lead Your Vision - Leading Through Vulnerability - Fear doesn’t have to disappear before you move toward what matters Surfing Your Edge isn’t really about surfing. It’s about stepping outside your comfort zone and giving yourself permission to pursue something meaningful. The adventure shows you what’s possible; the transformation happens when you come home and use what you discovered to change how you live. **About the Host:** Kristine Goad is endlessly curious about the moment when “I could never” becomes “What if I tried?” As the Surfing Your Edge Coach, her work centers on transforming our relationship with fear, trusting ourselves more deeply, and creating lives that feel bigger, bolder, and more fully our own. Her approach blends coaching, mental fitness, adventure, experimentation, and wonder—shaped by a life that has included bicycling across America, writing a memoir, building a business, and taking surf lessons to overcome her fear of open water in her late 40s. She is less interested in fearless living than in what becomes possible when we get curious about the things that scare us. **Connect with Kristine:** Substack: kristine.substack.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/kristinegoad LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/kristinegoad Instagram: www.instagram.com/kristine.goad YouTube: www.youtube.com/@KristineGoad Website: kristinegoad.com Download your free gift: ***Surf Your Edge: From Fear to Freedom*** This complete chapter from *Confident You: The Raw Conversations* traces two adventures, twenty years apart, and explores fear, identity, and why the real work of a life-changing experience begins after you come home.
