About this listen

Have you ever stood at the edge of a body of water and wondered what it would be like to swim to the other side? Stories from The Water is where we connect with curious and courageous individuals from all walks of life—some who took their first strokes as toddlers, others who discovered their passion midlife.


Through their stories, we explore our deep connection with water—what draws us in, what holds us back, and what keeps us going. Whether you're a seasoned swimmer, aspiring, or just intrigued by the water’s pull, these stories reveal powerful lessons about resilience, fear, and the pursuit of something greater—both in the water and in life.
