160. Showing Up Anyway
Mon Jan 19 2026
We don't always have to love what we're doing—but we do have to show up and do it. Life doesn't pause while we overthink, wait for motivation, or hope circumstances will change. Life keeps moving, with or without us.
In this episode, we talk about the quiet cost of hesitation. How many hours a day are spent contemplating, resisting, or replaying the same thoughts instead of taking action? What if even a fraction of that time was redirected toward progress—one call, one task, one uncomfortable step forward?
This conversation challenges the idea that passion must come before action. Often, clarity and confidence come after we move. Discipline beats motivation. Momentum beats perfection. Showing up—especially when you don't feel like it—is how growth happens.
