Influence is not something you choose to carry. It is something you already have.

In this episode, John shares a personal story about responsibility, legacy, and the weight that comes with being someone others watch. He explains why influence is not a burden to escape, but a privilege to steward.

This reflection will challenge you to consider how you carry the weight of influence in your roles as a leader, parent, spouse, and friend.

🟩 Quote of the Day: "The weight of influence is not a burden. It is a privilege."
