I’ve been thinking about what happens when life doesn’t go according to plan—and how often that’s actually where the magic begins. From a whirlwind trip to Nashville to unexpected encounters with people who redefine what’s possible, I found myself reexamining the stories we tell about our limits. What if the question isn’t “why me?” but “how can I?” This is a reflection on adaptation, curiosity, and getting out of our own way—because sometimes the only thing standing between us and a fuller life is the belief that we can’t. Turns out, with a little willingness (and maybe a lot of humor), we can do things differently, and still do them beautifully.
Key Takeaways:
- Limitations are often perceptions—ask “how can I?” instead of “why me?”
- Adaptation isn’t giving up; it’s discovering new ways to fully participate
- Staying curious and open keeps life expansive, no matter your age
