Hey Bethany, welcome to the show I am so excited to have you on and pretty sure my husband was like even more pumped when I told them guess who I get to talk to you today so were really excited. Have you on the show today gear fattening, yeah I've on in I mean use a thing, that I love about? You is worse similar ages, and so I vividly remember the inertia, a part of your story and hearing about you and all these things. So my first question is this: because Euro mom, I'm a mom, but where You are fearless kid when you are growing up, Definitely definitely had a girl get her attitude and pretty much ties are anything that can. I know I went in say kind me I'll. Do that
via you as a thought of raising two boys like what have they turn out to be shifted. You know, I would feel most fearless then, and moving as in Hawaii being around the ocean. All the time growing up, you still this healthy kind of respect and fear by an almost like bill Dearest, I felt like all of God's creation and yes MA am. I think it helps me just seeing how I feel less and I turned out all right he's totally like as when I was the first time on with my first and I was like catching
his every fall, and they now means that concern and my eyes just let involve he'll, be mine, light leg, mermaids, definitely teaching me alive and like. I can already see that confidence in my second sign in like how he just has this lake really like confidante little approach to life and, unlike LAO, I think it's helping him like letting him fall. You know yes and leaning Laming Fisher, my mom game over today to help watcher baby. So I could get some work done and I was like she fell yesterday and I felt so how to my mom like and she's gonna. Do it every day for days on end like it's ok, just eyes, banking, I've got some kind of anger flow with Sue were so no because you have accomplished so much and you ve proven to yourself in others that you can pretty much do anything. You set your mind. You and one thing after watching unstoppable that really I held on to you is: do you ever catch yourself in those? What, if moments, still to this day, whether its parenting surfing business wisely
anything. Do you find yourself getting caught in those thoughts As you mentioned, parenting sounds like. I asked the eyes with Google it whatever it. Is it such a new round of lake? On setting a reaction? I take directly affects my children Yes, it's so it really makes you try to like be as helpful as you can and how you're approaching lice and like just raising them and how you communicate with them. And so I don't like seeing Sazen seer so much ages. Ok, this whatever flights! Dear since no five of us now, you I mean sometimes I think, about high when you're that life would be like. If I didn't lose my argument just I think I definitely would have been a kind of this similar around. Let him in now still serving professionally and pushing female surfing
I don't know if I will be as much in the influential role of like encouraging people. I am I right We cherish that position that man of that I am able to be or a model for young girls, and I love that there's young girls and kids. Why don't love that then hospital that I love, that there are in the hospital watching so server instead of Lake Toy story years, and they like that, yeah. I just know that, like so many good ideas come from what can seem so tragic, though set my alarm when I was thirteen years old, and you know I was thinking of my dad other dad. You know I remember when when I lost my arm, he is still
green, he had anger towards God and everything really and he just could not like embrace the moment and lake look at it and, moreover, like one thing for my daughter is alive. And yes, he was thankful that I was why where's my mom and I we immediately relic landing fun here and breathing and allied like, alas, over sixty percent of my blood, like it's kind of like amazing that I'm here today, so I guess Now in today's live now, twenty nine years old and a mom of two- and I love the that I have? I am thankful to God for all that I get to do and share with others. So yeah you. I hope that my challenge comes my way. As my challenge comes, may we not ask as my Tompkinsville may, I can decide this kind of approach it with a sense of attitude that housing,
We get there lingered, so amazing, and I can't imagine my got such a pivotal time in your life, like you were thrust into almost this position of like showing people how you're going to move forward. What was it like when you are kind of having to navigate? I mean I can't even imagine being a teenager again, but let alone being put in the public eye, and then people are watching to see what you do. What did I feel like a may? I am so glad I didn't now social media neural dry reserves that would have like skyrocketed So I think, in the innocence it was like, even though there was all this attention and media, I didn't. I lived on Kauai small Little island. I spent my time in the jungle and the ocean and beach and with my girlfriend, so it was more of just me figuring out life with one arm and what am I going to do and how to make an approach life
really pay attention all the media on my story as might, even though I was aware of this kind, I did what I had to do and moved on and then like yeah. It was like when I come home from travelling because, as I wrote my book and besides, happily and shame my story, now my we did all that we do not have equal just my parents are an opportunity to encourage other people through our story so and can embrace ought to even not so young and kind Ella clue as to appreciate that clue as those guys. Panic, me more like me in I had a vulnerability to read but like you're, just a very honest approach, so I've been like yeah, it's funny. You use. I document EVA Unstoppable captures village fourteen year old, Bethany like them, sponsor, like Oprah alike,
minister, like you know, like others, land Sea like Canada, by a bad, whereas once people like, what's servings, for her ear now and even my mom volleyball she's, like it can be a photographer. Now you can sit on the beach and widespread I'm like you. C mon. I love that Why do you know I'm so curious? Goes on, I was watching your documentary. Do you know, have you taken that any a grand before
no. I don't think I, even though that is, but I knew nicely near you, but it's like a personality. Tents like New Myers Briggs, but I am saying that you are and three which is an achiever and when I was watching it is this kind of thinking about you and your story in the way that you ve kind of shown up in that and one day I love of our use at your competitive, like not just competitive, with other people, that competitive with yourself and within you to talk to me about that, like inner DR, where does it come from, is natural to you and what do you do when you get super competitive? oh yeah, it's definitely a good like a natural thing for me and I'm always wanting to push myself or better myself, and personally. I tools are rather is probably helped that drive to in my childhood and then getting in competitive surfing, like definitely continued to like spark about fire,
and now ass, an adult human, stolen motherhood. I'm still have that Dr Goings DA, I do gets almost seeds of all idea of being alive. It's natural! is now just how do I get my organise as a mom? So when I have may like windows of time tat, you know My time is put into being and cross training for surfing, and you know watching other surfers who I kind of like take tips from and just bettering myself. I just maximize my time and I make sure I'm productive and there's not. Whole lotta twiddling, my thumb said so I just don't have time for that answer.
Women have the kind of like less light. I get on social media, get in get out like pretty fast, and sometimes I do a quick follow up later in the day I am pretty like not twiddling my thumb on there and yapping I just Can I use it to drive me and, like the US, I'm combined, there were other people. You know a grenade, Playboy game there you have it. I am also like I can have no and around me and I'm like wanting. I myself am thankful. I have that quality and that I believe we should all on a better ourselves and link yeah, just rock lifelike. Why not?
do your boss. Why not like push yourself to keep getting better whatever it is that you love to deal, and I found in like especially in the sports round, like everything only gets more and more assigned the better you girls dragons have by now has only guys. I love it. One other thing, that really stood out to me, and I am really excited to hear your thoughts on this, because so many women that are listening are entrepreneurs or dream chasers or the kind of those like driven women like us. And one thing that I thought was so interesting in your film was talking about how, when you found out your pregnant, even though it was something you would always wanted, you kind of found yourself rejecting it, because you feared how it would change your training. Your like your surfing, walk me through this,
I recorded in the entire episode before I became a mom about. Why was afraid to be won and lose my identity in that in slow down on this, and everything share a little bit about that was so interesting to me seasons and lives. I think I guess I was in a season of life where play pushing May surfing. I was in the middle of filming this documentary, which was highlighting my surfing ability. And all this at at I'm pregnant. And I have a baby on the way- and I was like- My guys like this document, like I'm, aiming at a do like what's life gonna. Look like I just I don't see a ready made. Go out of. It was almost stemming this is to its timing I think our world celebrates ourselves. So much spat lake? My son
is giving me so much beauty and goodness in life, and he has to me. It's like appreciate my ability to surf and push myself in everything. It also comes to finding a balance and life to ache if we're all just focused on being successful, only Lake, why not consider like family being a success and like motherhood is I have my success lake can't imagine life without them. I mean I can't imagine life without them, but I don't want you because I love my life with them. Yeah, even if I wasn't still professionally surfing today. I ve been a mom now for four and a half years, and if I was, professionally serving today I'll, be. Ok with that, because I I give them all that I can, and thankfully
like a nice were I can bring them along through the journey and share with them. So it is a special kind of you know what set aside like now. Everyone can bring their child tour, and they may have to work seven hours a day and be away from their child. And to me, like I, don't be if surfing I would step away from saying so but that's just me and I think everyone has to find what feels array and like I don't want to feel like guilty so to. These young years, especially, I think, are so crucial that you are thoroughly a part of their lives in it shapes. I am as humans and build their confidence and identity and helps them become amazed. Like amazing young men, which I hope to look, back on these young ears and just feel I understand got about them in
Now I very some days when I come like come from, long day like this. A lot of my play and, like all my eyes like I just still need to be at the boys and hang out and lake, not have anything on the agenda set eyes like ten t whatever. I feel and try to listen to it and it just acknowledge and then schedule the next sweet kind of around. However, whatever is going on, I loved,
I almost died that you served a major competition in your first trimester. I could barely get out of bed out after you, Eddie Bank credit is definitely like the tired wine Irene Thin and sighing too about the fairy sons like nothing like I don't know I was penguins. I think I was eight weeks along is like really tired and grumpy an emotional. I did not know what was going on and then other set out that they have a gun may period and allow they can. We need to get a hang, incidentally, meetings and now they again not by while ones I found out there like I can either carbs and taken now. I was so amazing. Ok one thing that I live
about you. You're, a girl after my own heart, is that you have created a course ok to talk to me about your course and then we'll kindly dive into some of the topics that you cover. Bs eyes kid. It's called then supple year course, and it's like me and bring in different people and gas for each topic throughout the year, and my heart behind this was stems from being in a place of kind of a role model, since I was a teenager and then also have a love hate with social media, and it feels I got really shall world to me, and so I want to and get deeper, so the unstoppable year courses kind of away- and I get deeper with my super fans, but also of the people who don't even know my story will join in to you, because I guess I don't
we live in such a different world now, where the everything's going thousand miles per hour. Certainly in the? U S, the! U S is definitely too and then a lot of different countries around the world But we have legs just such a rat yes and a lot of very young people are struggling and their identity and their lacking the friendships, and they have a hard time reaching goals are finding their passions and struggling comparison. And, yes, the whole year Anthony. It takes more than a few weeks to make big life changes. So he made a year long course very slowly. Gus you're different challenges that we are seeing a sand yeah just talk about living and then supple alive, and who you answer this early, this fall. So it's been really exciting to finally leg beaches getting deeper with people and going yeah,
deeper than the scan level, also to say so, loving it love it. I mean when I was reading through summoned the modules being present, anchoring your identity, fighting embarrassing blessing others forgiving, Ike Energy, so much goodness in their it's like to be attitudes. I just so what people need a walk me through like how you fight comparison, because I know that a lot of women listening are super competitive like us, and no way things like social media, we're seeing everyone's highlight reels and were let's get ahead of us in this probably happened. You was serving in a million other things, so let's walk through that one, just a little bit like how do you battle comparison, Yasser Battle comparison. I think tat I come stems from other thing those were alike anchoring or identity itself. We are confident and who you are then comparison. Tenos takes up that sea, so to say
and also just finding boundaries that the different things like media is that you spend your time on that, like some of us struggle with comparison more than others, and I think if you do struggle of Jammu parasites, maybe they're like spend a lot less time on on the media is and things that, if you come away from them feeling like I don't know like native towards Zeus off then I think that's kind of like an alarm call a k like maybe you just needs a zero and on the people around you and the life you you're living, you can be Excel caught up in, like fear of missing out on what everyone else is doing really is missing out on your own life, because you're busy looking everyone else's life, so yeah thing, fighting embarrassing stems back to just finding your passion, I neer identity and like being in it and who you are late so
guessing on living the life that you won't allow versus like where everyone around use doing and fancied. I do like finding. Frazier from other people, sometimes by trying to keep like a healthy attitude towards other people like, Fischer and then my something about someone else then Maybe take that positive light I'll, take that positive aspect of this, life and try to emulate it in my own way. Set us. So you know if I have a friend who is an amazing mother rather than comparing myself. I like wolves, talk to her about, like how does she approached this area in her lives and leg, on alert from that person vases just compare from them. So yeah, it's really fine. We send a whole month on each topic, so
we have actually done again so fighting embarrassing yeah. I'm excited to dig answer, thou almonds, apples, and this takes in time there really tackled, because I can be a can, take away from your life and it said it so yeah labelling, learning to view other people and celebrate them very says liked s sake, oh gosh Has it altogether like yeah, we doubts we town liberating like new mention using the hell. I really do not see them all away when they have a very negative breakdowns to edge. I'm not perfect, so it's not like being perfect so to say about mergers. Learning how to overcome the obstacles that year see seeing and to approach sample ITALY and just trading
healthy habits, boundaries and being organised to all these different things like just make for a better life, if you're in any sort of industry that requires you to be on your feet all day or if you ve got it.

Ok. So I've actually never asked this question on air before but as you're talking, Eyelike have to know what your answer is to this, because I feel like you are, grounded in something amazing. What It is six ass. Do you like what does success? Look like in your life, guy said such a passion, yeah two means excise is being content with who you are and you get to share life were banned Aunt Hannah living in the morning and he now going to sleep flag at peace Irene. I end with contented mass and I also feel like waking feeling. Germans, Livy stare feeling cited about each day and yet not so to me, it's not
much about lake? Why served ass if visa waiver jobs or took down to world champion surfing bad my leg, I of my story and I love pushing myself it. My support even I allowed to those. Conversely, Tunisia, the alligators I got a bad, can tat. I wake up job in yes, yes, those so good. Can I say no and see that jaws is the weirdest spot to get to ever on Maui, and I felt like jump out of the bushes when you dry your inside. We get to doing when we went to I the first time, which was years ago we had
all about joys and of course we did zero research, even though there is a good surf there, that dang Lira like in this tiny rental car driving down that like path and I'm like, I feel like something- is gonna jump out of the buggy and loaded with clarifying the fighting all at the same time. So as to how these are you Jerry was my language escape movie aside. All too many years went by saying when I was done, without yeah. No, thank you socially around this time here on. My ma am GAD. When I think about you wish you, because I have a daughter now and then go being thirteen years old and is going through something like what did vice. Can you? came to young women out there, because I know a lot of Mama's play this by with their kids. In the car, and so kids listen about what can you do
Would you give yourself if you were to be able to speak yourself in your thirteen again the main advice ideas like Hager. Finally, lake airline about that and is and how the financial adviser around like so daunting to me, airy like not as much now that like when I always like twenty into this had no clear about anything and like does I didn't like their re tandem approach, to realize that I would just remind myself that the choices they make thirteen are actually a big deal and to really be thoughtful and yeah, sometimes saying no to what appears may be saying ass. To really benefit. In the long run, I made some of my biggest
most important decisions as a young teenage girl and they directly. Since my life today, and things like waiting for my husband and just you know I had a friend that dabbled with drugs, and you know that them away from their passions and their sports in their drive, an lies and said now, and it wasn't easy now at the time, because I love surfing so much and also just like it is from, has then and not getting caught up in young teenage staff and all these decisions leg really. I looked back now like why I'm so glad you didn't have to like waste my time and energy in tee his eyes again all This had a lot of silence like good, clean, in girlfriends that, like men, similar decisions Simeon kept me so
on what I really wanted: lions life and then eventually the time is right and I got to meet my has been and shallow Yeah man, yes, awesome he's pretty. Would you do? He is amazing and so thankful from love that one topics of your course and just something you talk about a lie is anchoring your identity and I'm just curious as a woman. Looking back over past seasons of your life, how is your identity shifted over time? guys, I think, like valued myself, and I saw that I had per person were, and I believe that might go Let me just as I am in so doing. In theory, it stay alike, That would empower my daily choices and I work. Feeling like positive about myself in cell continent.
I could accomplish great things and even if those things were simply tests, I look like mother head, for example. Such an easy earlier, while topic, I think, even if you are not a mom but lake yeah wake up doing like hey. I got this way. I can be a dead mother to my sons and I can communicate well to them and I can girl and may patients I'm not the moon station version, so I've been growing area and SAM, not demonstration, brazen bat, growing in the area of patients, lubber diet being anchored in who I am and is known, the value and wearing thin out I wake up and live that our each day and an eye it's your as having something to work towards a some poor aunt like so you know, I think, Sometimes you am I
This is not even thirty and she has four kids that idiot you're talking like I just feel like. I need something to work towards and she hasn't quite figured that out because mother had is very full on every single day. For so tat to me, a greater reminder like she's she's a feel like she's waking up feeling. I like, I need something. That's just me now and I'm gonna encourages us. I'm not like for in any way I can buy. It can stack too that balance of lake, yes I'm full time mom, but I'm also full time life. I'm also like working hard at surfing and also a creating. This unstoppable year course saw it just finding that balance to yeah bounds, everything out throughout the day and the maximum. In my time, but also have my me time. Unlike chair, I know
it's so what you're saying is so wild goose. I just recorded pod yes episode about like? Is it too late to start, and I feel like so many women as their identity shifts? As you know, they go from career and then maybe to motherhood and there's likes many different seasons of our life. She's women, where we're trying to like
you know Wayne, and that doesn't mean we can't be doing multiple things, but we feel like we're not doing anything while because we're trying to do things- and I just feel like whatever season wherein when we can learn to just be in that season, stray motherhood and that's our purpose, but I did indeed down women were achievers. You wanna like finnish today and be able to say, like I got this this this in this, not motherhood. Sometimes it's like, I can't take it alive. We all eight dinner as regards about on why my good you know like embracing just learning to embrace the sea. There is none sand at lake, my husband's than the last sight five years completely supporting me, and we talk about him doing his own thing, but we felt like it wasn't, feasible and really care. This is season of life and in Turkey
like a year, and I really embrace thought by a kind of decision that he was just voice. Support me Now we you now we go to bed, can tat night and link in love with you other ends. I know that ten years from now could look completely different or maybe it will look similar like we're just going to have to take it out when you know a season at a time and we try to together throughout the year and have more intentional, like thoughts in time to talk and like just make sure communication is on power and that where, like you know, like minded and contented with the choices are making in some new rain.
Now he's in a season of. I convey full time died, but he also supports me so imagine I would not be floating like as good as well about him. So it's I reject this kind. I like family unit team and that we make it work and it's not maybe Everyone else around us like it's actually weird. We don't have a lot of friends that we can fully relate to cause leads us we're doing. I'm taking you now. You know what you're stuck with me now, is my left his job with support us to an EU. I came home today and I like I've, been recording and I just need lunch light. Can you help make me you know it's endings. I think it's very amazing to be married to men neck and humble themselves, in your role that non traditional food is, I think, a lot of times. It's like people. Ask me what I do, but then, though, ass when my husband, as and when you say like here,
usually makes our lives blow and sees only the kid like. It's just different issues, very alternative which interesting that I'm like technically slow. So you is like, though, I'm getting me. The pan to give us. What would we do? I doubt yeah. So it's embarrassing This is then we're and not putting too much honourably existing yeah. My very first topic I talk about in my module and so my unstoppable your case. It's b, as at length deal area and be with who you are and Look them in the eye and set the phone aside and be with you for you, I'm and yeah. It says
We can tyre safety things on our play, or we can put five things on our plea and do them. Well and are maybe we have one thing or two things mom a night. We re those rules to the vessel. Ability and weakened a bad feeling about the site, everyone's in their place, and we all have- Everyone personality is to make some of us our hustlers and some of us. Not only this, neither crews myself this lake kind of learning our strengths and weaknesses and balancing them out. I'm here is, as you were, starting to create year programme in kind of map. Things out sometime
if you like, as teachers, some other things were teaching are the things that we ourselves need to get better at. Did you, as you started digging into the topics could sometimes and like? I need to take my own. Advise. Oh yes, Fisher, like varies, I'm you'll be pleasant, antlike, it's something! I've been working on the last year just cause. I get a lot of work done on this and you know I'll go surfing and then I'll come back home and of illegally. I gotta get these emails out but, like I was just I was having a good balance and I was feeling like I don't know. Listen to not see my eyes, you no or yes, or I had people around me and I will be talking to them and they wouldn't look in my eyes and it was it was as if I was like there priority, even though you re so
