When we pursue our dreams, setbacks are inevitable—obstacles, doubts, mistakes. But it’s not the fall that defines us… it’s the response. We don’t have to stay down. Like the bobo doll—we bounce back. Again. And again. Setbacks don’t define us—unless we let them. 3...
As a kid, I always saw myself as the short one. And years later, I’ve remained… remarkably consistent . Not the tallest in class, not the most physically imposing—just… consistently closer to the ground than everyone else. It was something I noticed early, and for a...
