What happens when life doesn’t go as planned but ends up giving you exactly what you need?

In this raw solo episode, Christopher reflects on turning 36, moving back home, and why over 2,500 job rejections couldn’t stop the mission. From leaving corporate in 2021 for the sake of mental health, to pursuing therapy, building a business, going back to school, and rediscovering purpose through football and failure—this is the story behind the brand.

Whether you're questioning your path or quietly fighting to stay in the game, this episode is a reminder: you are not behind. You are becoming.

🔹 Key Takeaways:

🔹 Why rejection is often redirection

🔹 How sports taught emotional resilience and business leadership

🔹 The real reason behind stepping away from corporate life

🔹 Why peace and progress don’t always look like success

🔹 A behind-the-scenes look at rebuilding life, one day at a time
