Quotes by Cat:
"What I like to do is put my head down, work super, super hard, go to bed early, wake up early surf, go to work, do my thing. Repeat. And, it's amazing. You know when you live that super simple lifestyle, your savings just gets bigger and bigger. If you want it, just make it happen. Work for it."

“The best thing about surfing is that you have to be so tuned in and present, that everything in life is on pause. Aaaaaand, the ocean is always there for us. Good mood, bad mood, you can always trust that it’s there.”

"On your trip at some point, with whatever wave you're surfing, when you're that dialed in, you're timing everything that you do; the time that you wake up, the time that you drink your coffee, the time that you take your nap, you're timing it all around the perfect tide, the wind, everything. So when you take it seriously like that, I feel like you can score the most."
