After more than 35 years away from professional bowling, I returned to compete in the PBA60 World Series of Bowling at age 61. I knew the odds weren’t in my favor. My body had changed. The equipment had changed. The competition had changed.
But this episode isn’t really about bowling.
It’s about the voice inside all of us that says we’re too old, too late, or not good enough to chase something that matters.
In this solo episode of We’re Not Stumped, I share the emotions behind my comeback, the challenges I faced on the lanes, and the unexpected lesson that came from finishing far below where I had hoped.
That lesson became a phrase I can’t stop thinking about:
Take the Shot Anyway.
Because you don’t need the perfect hand. You just need the courage to use the one you’ve got.
Whether you’re considering a career change, recovering from an injury, pursuing a dream, or simply trying something that scares you, I hope this episode gives you the encouragement to take your shot.
