Now That You Ask

198. Start Where You Are


Listen Later

This week I found myself reflecting on the simple yet powerful quote by Arthur Ashe: "Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can." This idea resonated deeply with me as I considered how often I overlook the tools and wisdom I already possess. Listen as I share my personal journey with starting over, the fears that come with trying new things, and the humor I find in my own missteps. Drawing inspiration from both Arthur Ashe and Samuel Beckett, I explore how failure isn’t the end—it's part of learning, living, and growing. I hope this episode is a gentle reminder that the courage to begin, no matter where you are, is always within reach.
