Episode 56: The episode that almost wasn't. (You don't want to miss this one!)

What happens when you have a plan… and the day has other ideas? On a snowy day filled with good intentions, I kept saying, “I’m going to record my podcast now,” only to be called away—again and again—to help someone else. Fire calls. People stuck in the snow. A quick trip to help my dad after he locked his keys in his truck. By the end of the day, the plan hadn’t happened—but something else had. In this episode, we talk about the best-laid plans, why they don’t always come to fruition, and how that doesn’t automatically mean the day was wasted or the effort was lost. Sometimes, life reroutes us not to derail us, but to place us exactly where we’re needed. This is a reflection on flexibility, service, and learning to measure a “good day” by more than what gets checked off a to-do list. If you’ve ever felt frustrated when your plans fall apart—or quietly proud of how you showed up anyway—this episode is for you.
