Climb the Ladder


Listen Later

What does it mean to truly be yourself? In this episode, we explore a simple but powerful idea: sometimes your most “useless” superpower is actually the clearest window into who you are.

From growing up in a house full of dogs to climbing a literal ladder just to pet a lonely neighbor’s pup, this story dives into what it means to embrace the things that make you uniquely you. Dogs may not live as long as we do—but they love harder, live fully in the moment, and never miss a chance to greet their people with joy. And maybe that’s the lesson.

Listen in as we unpack what animals—especially dogs—can teach us about connection, authenticity, and appreciating the simple moments in life. Because sometimes the smallest interactions reveal the truest parts of ourselves.

💡 What You’ll Learn: • Why your quirks might actually be your greatest strengths • How small, sincere moments reveal who you really are • What dogs can teach us about presence and unconditional love • The power of embracing your “ladder moments” • How simple connections build unexpected trust

🛠️ Action Step: Identify one thing that feels uniquely “you”—something you do naturally that brings you joy or connection. Lean into it this week. And while you’re at it, slow down enough to appreciate one simple, everyday moment you might normally rush past.

📌 Perfect For: • Anyone exploring authenticity and self-discovery • Animal lovers (dog people, cat people, and everyone in between) • Leaders who value connection and trust • People who want to slow down and live more presently • Anyone who needs a reminder to enjoy the simple things
