Radical Transitions: The Courage to Reinvent Yourself

Sometimes the life that once fit perfectly starts to feel a little tight. That’s not a sign to settle – it’s a signal to grow.

Join host Kari Cardinale for a raw, real conversation with skateboarding legend and award-winning filmmaker Stacy Peralta. From revolutionizing the sport in the ’70s to walking away at his peak (only to reinvent himself again and again), Stacy knows a thing or two about bold moves and second acts.

We’ll dig into:

  • The Art of Letting Go – what it really takes to leave a good thing behind
  • The Kook Phase – that messy, magical beginner stage that leads to breakthrough
  • The Power of Productive Discomfort – the moments that matter most usually start where your comfort zone ends.

Whether you’re eyeing a new path, craving more meaning, or just ready to shake things up a bit  – you’ll leave this live chat feeling inspired, energized, and maybe even a little rebellious.
