After taking a break from the podcast, I’m back with a personal and honest conversation about what happened behind the scenes. In this episode of Stepping Back, Standing Strong, I talk about stepping away because of work pressure, management bullying, and the challenges of being viewed as the “favorite hard worker.”
I’ll also reflect on how my political views have changed over time, why personal growth matters, and how I’m still committed to pushing forward for the long run—regardless of the obstacles.
To close out the episode, I’ll share my thoughts and early predictions for the upcoming 2026 NFL season, including the teams to watch, possible playoff contenders, and what could make this season unforgettable.
Topics covered:
- Taking a break from the podcast

Since then, I stepped away. Until now, I'm back stronger and ready to keep going.
