Later in the discussion between coach Alex and podcast co-host Kate, Alex goes on to share the anecdote:
“…the more I practice cutting an onion, the better I get at it. So I can be more confident at that. It might still end in tears”
“But there’s a different kind of confidence, I think, which is confidence in stepping into the unknown, which is, welI, I may have cut loads of onions, but I’ve never cooked this dish. I’m still going to give it a go and see how it goes”
