On this episode of Relatable Wisdom, I sit down with Kenneth Edward Webb, a retired army lieutenant colonel whose journey from the battlegrounds to writing psychological thrillers in Peru is nothing short of inspiring. Ken’s guiding quote—“Don’t worry about how fast you’re moving forward, as long as you never stop moving”—reminds us that progress isn’t about keeping pace with others, but about embracing our own journey, no matter how winding or slow it may seem. Ken’s story is a powerful testament to overcoming early challenges (including being told he’d never learn to read as a child), breaking free from others’ limitations, and using resilience to chase new dreams—like learning Spanish, pursuing a doctorate, and penning his debut novel. If you’ve ever felt held back by others’ opinions or the speed of your own progress, Ken’s wisdom will inspire you to keep moving forward, at your own pace, and celebrate growth, no matter how incremental. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that the only direction that matters is forward.Connect With Kenneth Edward WebbWebsite:https://kenwebb69.com/If Relatable Wisdom speaks to you—if a quote shared makes you pause, smile, or see things differently—consider subscribing so you never miss an episode.
