What began as disappointment became an opportunity to celebrate someone else’s achievement and appreciate the journey that led there. Drawing parallels between marathon training and practice ownership, Aaron explores resilience, perspective, focusing on what you can control, and using setbacks as opportunities to evaluate and strengthen the systems that drive long-term success.
