Episode Description
In this episode of The Daryl Perry Podcast, I’m sharing a deeply personal reflection on never giving up on yourself. Whether I was eight, sixteen, thirty, or now at forty-three, I’ve had moments where I doubted myself. I’ve also had dreams that never fully went away, even when life told me to be more realistic. The message in this episode is for anyone who’s felt like giving up, who’s been talked out of their ambitions, or who’s learned to hide who they really are to try to fit in.
I talk about my journey growing up with cerebral palsy, trying to blend in, and eventually realizing that the box others tried to place me in was never meant for me. I open up about how the fitness industry gave me a space to build confidence, how storytelling and marketing helped shape my purpose, and how I started using my voice and presence online to inspire others. You’ll hear how long it took me to stop hiding, to show my body in motion, and to push past the fear of being judged for how I move.
This is a reminder that your dreams are still valid. That even if you’ve set them aside, they can come back. That opportunities evolve, and you grow into the person who can see and act on them. You won’t get it all right, and you’re not supposed to. But every experience shapes how you show up. The most powerful thing you can do is love and appreciate who you are and where you are right now.
