Sometimes the moment you feel like stopping is the very moment you need to keep going.
In this episode of The Audacious Living Podcast, Audley Stephenson sits down with Edward M. Rahill, author of One Mile at a Time, for a thoughtful conversation about resilience, perseverance, and the legacy we leave behind. What starts as a discussion about endurance racing opens into something much deeper: how life tests us, what keeps us moving, and why so many people may be walking away just one step too soon.
Ed shares the deeply personal experiences that shaped his life and his book, including the powerful influence of his grandmother, the lessons he learned through adversity, and the mindset that helped him keep going through some of life’s hardest moments. His reflections on fear, consistency, and purpose offer a grounded reminder that growth often happens in the moments when we feel like we have the least left to give.
Audley and Ed also explore what it means to truly live a life that matters, not just for ourselves, but for the people who come after us. This conversation is a reminder that success is rarely built in one big moment. More often, it’s built one choice, one mile, and one act of courage at a time.
If you’ve been feeling tired, discouraged, uncertain, or tempted to give up on something meaningful, this episode will meet you there and challenge you to keep going.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
Why so many people may be giving up just before the breakthrough
How small, consistent actions create lasting results
The legacy-building lessons Ed learned from his grandmother
How to keep going when motivation fades
Why fear should be managed, not obeyed
What it means to live a life that makes the world better
