2024 Reflections & What’s Ahead 🎉

Lessons from the past year, gratitude, and a hopeful nudge for 2025.

Happy New Year, Friends! 🎉

I’m writing this on New Year’s Eve, feeling honored to have been invited to a few NYE events but choosing to stay true to myself and the commitments I’ve made. One of those commitments? Writing this newsletter for you. So here we are, wrapping up 2024 with gratitude and reflection.

Lesson #1: It’s About the Journey 🚶
I used to think it was all about the destination. Now, I know better.

I’ve asked myself: Am I enjoying the work I’m dedicating my time and energy to—outside of my 9-to-5 and being a father?

The answer is yes. 100 times, yes.

I’m not financially free, but if I pretend I am and ask, What would I do with my time?—I’d still be creating content and helping others navigate the hard stuff in life. And for that, I’m incredibly grateful.

Lesson #2: If It’s Not 100% Yes, It’s a No
This one’s big.

Too many times, I’ve said yes with my head when my gut was screaming no. It’s a tough habit to break, but I’m learning to trust the gut. It’s part of the journey, right?

Lesson #3: Our Time Here Is Limited
One thing I refuse to live with is regret. Life is too short to ignore the things on your heart—those quiet nudges and whispers that I believe are downloads from above.

So, I’m pressing in. I hope you are, too.

YouTube in 2025: A New Adventure 🎥

One thing I’m thrilled about for the new year is posting more regularly on YouTube. I’ll be creating videos centered around racquet sports, faith, and breakthroughs. If that sounds like your vibe, I’d be honored if you’d subscribe and follow along: YouTube Channel. Let’s build something inspiring together!

A Quick Encouragement for a Dark World 🌟

As we step into a new year, let’s aim to:

  • Spread kindness wherever we go.

  • Lift others up with encouragement.

  • Show understanding and compassion.

  • Accept people for who they are and where they’re at.

  • Inspire and support others to grow into their best selves.

What makes you feel most alive? Let’s do more of that in 2025.

What’s the one thing you want most but are afraid to say out loud?  Let’s go after it this year. Together.

Thank you for being here. It’s an honor to share this journey with you.

Blessings,

Bryant
