Steve Hershberger - A Napkin saved his Life
Manage episode 481357266 series 2585582
What if the moment that saves your life isn’t a miracle, or even counselling but a word, scribbled on a napkin? Steve Hershberger had lived a life built on his father’s expectations, chasing achievement like a moth to a flame, versus his artistic passions. But after two decades of following someone else’s blueprint, the façade cracked. His physical and mental health collapsed. He stood at a breaking point—until a friend’s intervention, and a single word on a napkin, cracked open a new path forward.
But life wasn’t done testing him. Just as Steve found his footing, life blindsided him again. A brutal cycling accident left him in the hands of a trauma team, hovering near death. In this episode of Chatter That Matters, we trace the route from accepting pain to chasing purpose, and how a man known for racing ahead finally learned to slow down and confront the truth. This is a story of grit, grace, and the quiet power of a single word.
If you’ve ever questioned your path, worth, or where you are, this show will inspire you to believe in yourself.
