Welcome to the very first episode of Big Dreams & Little Things! Hosts Karina Kampe (certified transformational coach, artist, creative entrepreneur, and songwriter) and Maria Wronski-Ellis (artist, songwriter, educator, and author of the upcoming The Mindful Songwriter dive into why allowing yourself to "start scrappy" might be the most powerful approach to achieving your dreams. They explore the trap of waiting for perfect conditions instead of taking action, share personal stories and inspirational examples from both literature and real life, and provide practical challenges to help you get moving on your goals—even when everything isn't perfectly aligned.

• Shonda Rhimes' transformative "Year of Yes" and how it changed her life

• The liberation that comes with age and caring less about others' opinions
• The power of stepping outside comfort zones (Karina's audition story)
• Research showing that limited resources often fuel innovation and success
• How major companies like Amazon, Apple, and Airbnb started with humble beginnings
• The "make do" approach that leads to entrepreneurial success
