100: Embrace the Turtle: Why Slowing Down Wins the Race

  • Summary

  • Does it feel like everyone around you is moving fast and breaking things?

    We live in a hustle culture where many have the “if it’s bigger, faster, and flashier, then it’s always better” mentality.

    Only in recent years have I begun to see a broader cultural shift toward slower and more intentional living.

    I can personally attest that it’s the “winning” way.

    During these first 100 episodes of the podcast, I’ve learned to embrace the way of the turtle.

    I’ve learned to resist the urge to compare and instead delight fully in my own journey.

    A journey that was slow.

    A journey that was about taking “turtle steps” and even a bit of a pause along the way.

    And in this journey, I’ve learned 3 important things that I know you’ll appreciate, especially if the loud roar of others zooming by is deafening.

    If you want to try the slow and steady way and see how it can make your personal and professional life more of what you really want, then listen in for the ways I’ve learned that:

    • Creating because it matters is enough. Even if what you create is small.

    • The power of the pause to rejuvenate your creative spark

    • Why consistency beats perfection every time

    Getting to 100 episodes has been a goal of mine from the beginning. And I’m grateful to you for coming along with me.

    What’s been your slow and steady win?
