Still one of my favorite childhood memories. Detroit Tigers 1968 World Series Champions.
Pictured are Bill Freehan (I wore his #11 on any uniform I could) and series hero and MVP Mickey Lolich (who passed away today). These men are gone, but the memory lives on!!

In this performance culture we live in, we can often be influence by the belief people are actually watching us.

But, what if they're not? What would you do, how would you prioritize, how would you live or act if you realize no one was watching. What if no one really cares?

You were so confident back then.”
That’s what someone told me at my high school reunion.
Funny… I remembered feeling invisible, not enough, out of place.
Turns out, the story I told myself wasn’t the whole story.
This reflection is about the quiet power of rewriting our inner narrative—and reclaiming who we really are.
