When I was growing up, my dad always seemed to have the right tool for the job. Whether he was wallpapering, carving something out of wood, or building a concrete fireplace, I’d stand there watching — amazed — wondering how he just knew what to do.

One day, I asked him how he did it. His answer was simple:

“You just do it.”

At the time, I didn’t get it. I thought he was dodging the question.
But years later, I realised those four words held a lifetime of dad wisdom — the kind that quietly shapes who we become.

In this episode, I share the story of how my father’s simple words became one of the greatest pieces of life wisdom I’ve ever received — a reminder that sometimes, you don’t need another plan, another book, or another reason to wait. You just need to start.

Whether you’re facing change, indecision, or self-doubt, this episode is for you. It’s part motivational speech, part reflection, and a gentle nudge to move forward — whatever your “it” might be.

👉 If you’re ready to take that next step in your own life, and could use some support along the way, book a consultation with me at Right Your Own Story. Together, we’ll explore what’s been holding you back and help you move confidently toward what’s next.

Because sometimes, the simplest words of wisdom — like the ones passed down from a father to a son — can change your life forever.

Confidence changes everything — but most people are walking around with hidden "needles" of self-doubt, fear, and old wounds holding them back.
