There's more than one way to do something well
Thu Feb 05 2026
Sometimes we hear someone speak with certainty — passionate, confident, convinced they’ve found the way. And often, their way does work beautifully… for them.
In this episode, Candace shares a moment from a meeting that opened a quiet but powerful reflection. One person’s success was framed as a universal solution, and yet Candace knew — from her own lived experience — that doing things differently had worked just as well.
This episode is a reminder that while mentors, teachers, and guides can offer wisdom, inspiration, and tools, they don’t get to define your path. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel — but you also don’t have to follow one blueprint. You’re allowed to gather what resonates, release what doesn’t, and create a way that feels aligned with who you are.
Whether in teaching, business, creativity, or life itself, there are a million ways to do something well. This is an invitation to soften comparison, reclaim choice, and trust that your way — when it is rooted in your truth.
