This one feels different.
It’s the first time I’ve ever made something this personal for Geeky Stoics, pulling back the curtain on my struggle as I lost myself in my Air Force career, and how I found my way back, training for a Half Iron Man. It’s a story about identity, ambition, and the moment you realize you’ve been chasing someone else’s version of success.And the only way I knew how to tell it…was through the lens of Star Wars.
Luke Skywalker has always been my guide for understanding who I want to be. While he struggles and loses his way, he still finds his way back… A hero, like his father before him. Somewhere along the way, I forgot that.
This video chronicles my obsession to remember again.
It’s called “The Dream That Refused to Die.”And before it goes live to the rest of the world on YouTube, I wanted you, the Geeky Stoics community, to see it first. So here it is.
