On this Sunday Setup, we set you up with a quiet but meaningful shift: you don’t have to own everything you admire.

We talk about letting go—the things, the roles, even the applause. Not because they don’t matter, but because they don’t define you. You can love the car, the house, the title... without needing to possess it. Admiration doesn’t always have to end in acquisition.

We talk about being seen. Not the spotlight kind—but the simple, human kind. A “thank you,” a glance, a moment of real acknowledgment. It's not about ego. It’s about being known. And that’s okay to want. It’s okay to need.

We talk about puppets, too—yes, literal ones—and how even silly things can anchor connection. Whether it’s a fuzzy face on a screen or a familiar voice at the end of the day, presence takes many forms.

So this week, take stock. What are you holding that could be admired, not carried? And where could you offer— or receive—a little more acknowledgment?

Here’s to clear eyes, open hands, and a soft place to land. You’re seen, Heal Squad.
