What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this engaging episode of 'Alive and Free,' Bob Gardner takes listeners on a road trip through Texas, sharing anecdotes from his travels while delving into the concept of 'learning to fall.' Drawing parallels between martial arts and life's challenges, Bob explores how practising falling can teach us resilience in the face of life's tumbles.
He argues that just because we can handle adversity doesn't mean we should seek it out as a hobby. Through light-hearted banter and personal stories, Bob illustrates how practising falling, both physically and emotionally, can help us manage life's unexpected blows without becoming rigid or breaking. With humour and honesty, he challenges listeners to consider the skills they've developed and whether they've become their identity.
He shares insights on how learning to fall can transform our approach to life, making us more adaptable and less fearful of failure. Bob's wisdom on emotional resilience and coping mechanisms is not only practical but also relatable, encouraging listeners to embrace flexibility over rigidity. This episode is a refreshing reminder that while falling is inevitable, how we rise defines us. So, are you ready to embrace life's challenges with a little less fear and a lot more grace?
