 Welcome, listeners. Today, we’re diving deep into the theme behind the phrase “better late than never”—a saying that traces its roots back centuries, first appearing in Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales and even earlier as a Latin proverb, “potiusque sero quam nunquam.” At its core, this phrase reminds us that it’s better to do something late than to never do it at all, no matter how much time has passed. In a world obsessed with fast success and early achievement, this message is more relevant than ever.

Think about the pressure we see online—stories of tech founders in their twenties or athletes peaking before 30. Yet, history and pop culture are filled with people who truly thrived only after setbacks or in later chapters of their lives. Tina Fey didn’t become Saturday Night Live’s first female head writer until she was 30, having spent years working odd jobs and shuffling through comedy clubs. Vera Wang designed her first wedding dress at 40, after careers in skating and editing. Frank McCourt published Angela’s Ashes, his Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir, at 66, proving that storytelling and success don’t come with a use-by date. Modern artist Takashi Murakami only gained international recognition in his late 30s, blending tradition and pop culture into a genre all his own. Their journeys show that the timeline for achievement is not set in stone.

Society sometimes tells us that we’ve missed our window if we’re not successful by a certain age. That creates anxiety, regret, and often a sense of hopelessness. But the stories of late bloomers challenge that entirely. They show that perseverance, resilience, and a refusal to give up can lead to extraordinary accomplishments—no matter when we start or restart.

So if you’re listening and feeling behind, let these stories inspire you. Whether it’s pursuing a new career, learning a skill, or following a passion, remember: your timeline is your own. The world’s greatest achievements are just as often the result of perseverance as of perfect timing. It’s never too late to start, to dream, or to try again. Better late than never.
