She’s Like the Wind: Confidence, the Power of Why and Badassery with Sensi Graves

Sensi Graves is a professional kiteboarder, entrepreneur and speaker who’s on a mission to help people build self-confidence and share their amazing uniqueness with the world.  

Sensi shares how she used her time chasing summer around the world in kiteboarding competitions as inspiration to launch her swimwear company.  And yet, as she looked back on everything she had achieved, she realized she was so busy trying to prove herself, she never felt proud.  That’s all changed and since then, she’s been sharing her story to help people that look confident on the outside feel confident on the inside.

This was a powerful conversation that has stuck with me ever since.  If you’ve ever had imposter syndrome or felt that no matter how many amazing things you’ve done, it’s never enough - I guarantee you’ll find something here for you.  

Sensi shares how comparing ourselves to others and setting goals kills our self-confidence, and she shares simple daily habits that help.  We also connected on exploring your why and how it’s the key to finding your people and helping you through hard times.
