Episode Description 


Texas has plenty of big reputations—but one of the most important ones rarely makes the postcards. Texans show up. Not for applause or recognition, but for people. 


In today’s episode of The Texan Edge, Tweed Scott reflects on the quiet, everyday way Texans answer the call—whether it’s jumper cables, breakfast tacos after a storm, or simply sitting beside someone when it matters most. 


This isn’t about heroics. It’s about presence. About showing up even when it’s inconvenient, uncomfortable, or when you don’t feel particularly ready. Texas figured out a long time ago that most problems don’t need a hero—they need a human willing to stay. 


If you’ve been avoiding a call, a conversation, a project, or even yourself, this episode offers a simple, practical challenge: pick one place you’ve been absent… and show up a little more today than you did yesterday.  


Show Notes 

• Texans are known for big things—but showing up quietly may be the most Texan trait of all
• Why presence matters more than perfection
• Everyday examples of Texas-style showing up—from small towns to big cities
• What showing up doesn’t require: bravery, readiness, or a perfect plan
• A gentle reflection on the places we avoid and why
• One simple, practical step you can take today—no 12-step plan required
• The power of being there for others—and for yourself


Today’s Texan Edge takeaway:
Showing up isn’t loud. It’s a decision. One that says, I’ll be there—and then actually is.
 
Our porch light is always on. We’ll be back here again tomorrow.
 


This isn't just a podcast, it's a Texas state of mind.
