"It's easy to play pretty well if you play hard. Things start working in your favor."

-Terry Rozier

That's right, we are at episode 200 and I am THRILLED about this milestone. I have to start this with sincere gratitude for everyone that has facilitated in this podcasting journey of mine- I would not be here without you! From the listeners, audio and editing team, production, studio team, EVERYONE who has rocked the gear, I SEE you and APPRECIATE YOU! Special thank you to one of my original and longest running pod-fam members, THE Theon Walls! Theon is a key player in the T&T game from being the resident audio engineer to the behind the scenes guide and hype man- you more than helped the podcast, you kept this human in the game. From one creative to another, we are just getting started.

ON to episode 200- you will like this one, short and sweet with some quick "key to survival" intel that everyone needs AND I will share with you the secret on how to do it- and keep doing it! The way to stay #varsity PERIOD. That's all I'll say on this one, enjoy! As always, it's a pleasure to have you in our T&T Varsity Humans Family, if you like what you're hearing (or wearing:), please share with a friend! We love nothing more than to see the community of mission driven humans grow, so we can all grow and live on purpose together. Cheers to you and to another 100 episodes and then some! XO

Highlights:

Mission driven humans. Doing hard things. Resilience, community, and staying uncomfortable. Standing out vs. fitting in. Chasing a dream, a goal, and an end line- literally. Surviving and thriving. Discipline and believing in yourself. Living a life of service. Leadership and potential.
