When Ren invited pro surf vet, CJ Hobgood, on the podcast the girls were stoked. There’s nothing quite like getting perspective from someone who has been to the top. But this discussion turned into so much more. Surfing opened the door for CJ to share his real gifting with the world. PSP holed up in a rented tiny house in Orlando, FL for this session. The close quarters left little room for hot air, allowing the crew to get right down to the heart of matters. Boy are the girls grateful for this opportunity… and we hope you will be too!
