Stepping Stone (Lari White song)

"Stepping Stone" is a song co-written and performed by American country music artist Lari White. It was released in September 1994 as the second single from her album Wishes.

The song reached a peak of number 11 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart (now Hot Country Songs) in early 1995. It was one of White's most successful singles.

The song is a ballad that explores themes of personal growth, overcoming adversity, and using difficult experiences as opportunities for self-improvement. The lyrics describe a relationship that has ended, but the singer views it as a learning experience and a "stepping stone" towards a brighter future.

White co-wrote the song with Chuck Cannon and Vicky McGehee. The production was handled by Rodney Crowell.

The song's performance on the charts and its positive message contributed to White's recognition as a prominent female voice in 1990s country music.
