What do you do when life says, “You can’t”?
If you’re Diana Nyad, you whisper back: “Not yet.”

In this powerful episode of the Dream Big Podcast, 10-year-old host Sophia Karpman dives into the inspiring story of Diana Nyad — the woman who swam 110 miles from Cuba to Florida at age 64… through jellyfish stings, shark-infested waters, and wild storms.

Sophia explores:
What makes someone try again (and again!) even after failing
How strength isn’t in muscles, but in the heart
Why your age — or your past — doesn’t define your dreams

Whether you’ve faced setbacks or feel like giving up, this episode is your reminder that you don’t have to be the fastest, the strongest, or the youngest — you just have to keep swimming.
