Hey Surfer,
Many surfers hit a plateau where they start questioning why they surf, and even develop feelings of surfing shame. The chase for perfect waves, new boards, or better performance eventually loses its excitement.
This podcast episode helps surfers reconnect with their core reason for surfing, giving them a renewed sense of meaning and a philosophy that keeps them engaged for life
I just dropped a new Surf Mastery Podcast episode with Aaron James, a philosopher and lifelong surfer, where we break down:
- Surfers experiencing burnout, frustration, or stagnation
- Questioning why we surf and looking for deeper meaning
- Intermediate & advanced surfers who want to progress in a sustainable way
- Older surfers who want to extend their surfing years & stay stoked
- People who see surfing as more than just a sport—but as an art, meditation, or way of life
- Surfing as a Selfish Act? Redefining Surfing’s Role in Life
By redefining what surfing means to you, you’ll develop a more rewarding approach—one that focuses on attunement, exploration, and longevity rather than battling for waves.
This podcast episode helps surfers break free from external validation and redefine their relationship with surfing by focusing on self-expression, attunement, and longevity rather than competition or industry-driven expectations. By integrating surfing philosophy with modern longevity science, it provides a roadmap for sustainable progression, deeper fulfillment, and a lasting connection to both the ocean and oneself. It also challenges the idea that surfing is selfish, revealing how it fosters self-transcendence, strengthens relationships, and creates a profound sense of belonging—both in the water and in life.
