What if one simple, two-syllable word could change your life? It’s a word we say every day—sometimes without even thinking—but when spoken with intention, it can open doors to new opportunities, meaningful relationships, and unforgettable experiences.

Inspired by a recent issue of "Extra Mile Thursday," an amazing weekly newsletter written by the "Extra Mile Man" himself, Shawn Anderson, I’m sharing how a simple act of acknowledgment turned an ordinary trip into something extraordinary.

Shawn, a past guest on the podcast, used the power of a simple word to connect with a college basketball coach, uncover the fearless mindset of a skydiver, and even share in a soon-to-be fiancé’s life-changing journey. His experiences beautifully illustrate the incredible possibilities that unfold when we lead with intentional connection.

Go ahead and press play... you've got to find out how you can make this tiny little word a big part of your life!
