Hey, y'all, and welcome back to another episode of "This is for Us." As always, I'm so thankful that you're here with me. This week, I'm coming to you from the beautiful Panama City Beach, Florida, where I'm reflecting on a journey that started here a year ago.

Reflections from the Beach

In this special episode, I share an emotional and inspiring story about how a year ago, while floating in the ocean, I dreamt of becoming a podcaster. Today, I sit in the same spot, but this time as a proud podcaster, recording an episode with the waves in the background. It’s a reminder of how much can change in just a year when you follow your dreams and take that first step.

Key Takeaways:

• The Power of Starting: Whether you have a clear plan or not, the most crucial part of any journey is just to start. Even if you're scared or unsure, taking that first step can lead to amazing places.

• Overcoming Fear: I share candid moments of self-doubt and fear, including stories of feeling overwhelmed and not knowing what I was doing. These experiences remind us that it's okay to feel scared and unsure—what matters is pushing through those fears.

• Embracing Imperfections: From technical hiccups to emotional challenges, this episode is about embracing imperfections and being real. Whether it’s the ding of a computer or a moment of self-doubt, it's all part of the journey.

• Commitment to Yourself: The importance of committing to your dreams and keeping your word to yourself. I reflect on how fulfilling it feels to follow through on a promise you make to yourself.
