In this energizing episode of the CAN. THRIVE Series, hosts Andy Bestwick and Coach Jason Carnagie dig into one of the most universal challenges we all face: starting. Whether it’s fear of failure, overwhelm, perfectionism, or even fear of success—sometimes the hardest part is just taking that first step.

With warmth and real talk, Andy and Jason explore the mental barriers that keep us stuck and share personal stories, including the surprising origin of the "salmon" mindset and how the CAN. brand was born out of small, consistent nudges forward. From mindset shifts to motivational triggers (like key words and community support), this episode offers tools to move you from inaction to momentum.

In this episode, they unpack:

• Why the first step often feels the hardest—and how to make it easier
• The role of fear, doubt, and even "positive what-ifs" in holding us back
• How to use trigger words, small wins, and community to push forward
• Why vision and values help anchor your direction and guide your steps
• The truth about social media vs. real progress

This is your permission slip to begin, imperfectly. Whether it’s a business idea, a fitness goal, or just the next right thing— CAN. is automatic, if you just take that first step.
🎧 Tune in now and walk away with practical mindset tools, encouragement, and the reminder that progress starts with showing up.
