We’re all running out of time.

That’s not a dramatic opener—it’s just the truth. This episode is a solo reflection on something that’s been weighing on me lately: presence, purpose, and the short window we’re all given to do something that matters.

While on vacation, I read Whale Fall, a story about a man swallowed by a whale who finds clarity about his broken relationship with his father—just a little too late. It hit home, because isn’t that how so many of us live? Waiting. Delaying. Postponing healing, connection, meaning—for some better “later” that may never come.

In this episode, I talk about:

• The guilt I feel when I’m not working.
• How hard it is to just be still.
• Why time, once spent, is never coming back.
• And how Getting After It is not just about productivity—it’s about presence.

I open up about what gives my life meaning: faith, love, growth, community. And I challenge you to ask yourself what gives yours.

Because the clock’s ticking. And the worst thing isn’t failing. The worst thing is never trying.

I hope today’s episode sparked something within you to pursue your dreams and unlock your true potential. If you found value in it, consider sharing it with someone who might need that same push.

Getting After It is for those who. want to silence their self-doubt. Refuse to be owned by comfort. Understand their limits are man-made and breakable. We live in a time of constant comparison. Social media drowns us in highlight reels and overnight success stories. But what most people don’t see is the grit behind it all. The reps. The quiet mornings. The sacrifices. The failures.

You are just getting started.

Keep Getting After It.
