Do What Scares You: How Comedian and Mom of 2 Carey Reilly Faced Her Fear of Ice Skating
, so we could challenge moms to do something, anything, that gets them to focus on themselves and the dreams they had before becoming a mother.
The first to rise to the challenge? Meet Carey Reilly, a mother of two, comedian and host who decided to challenge herself to learn how to ice skate."What scared me most about trying figure skating … it wasn’t the actual skating component -- well, that makes me nervous -- but it was the falling," she admitted to CafeMom."I just don’t want to fall. I could just envision something breaking, I’m out for a week.
"They’ve seen me take them ice skating and sit on the sidelines while they ice skate. They’re like, 'Come on, Mom,' and I’m like, 'I don’t think so,'" she shared."So now they’re able to see, 'Oh mom was scared to do that, she got the proper coaching, she learned how to do it, and now she feels confident doing it.' And they can then use that in their life. I don’t want them to stop trying new things.
When the time came to lace up and hit the ice, she admitted that at first, it felt as if she'd made a terrible mistake. "My first impression heading onto the ice was a real nervous energy. Holding onto the side of the rink and just feeling my skates moving back and forth, I was thinking, 'There is just no way this is gonna get better. How am I ever gonna feel comfortable with standing on this ice, on a tiny little blade?'""By the end of it, I actually couldn’t believe I was twirling.
