Today I wanted to send some encouragement to others, especially younger people like my kids to give things their all and do the best they can while the opportunity is there. Even though part of this is speaking from a sports/athletic perspective, I hope that what I say can be applied to other things you are doing, including working a job and parenting.

As I approach another year mark for the podcast I have to speak on my internal battle. I have found myself becoming more anxious recently and it might be mostly self induced. This episode I talk through my thoughts and how I am trying to find peace with myself while still trying to find balance this creative outlet. ______________________________ If you enjoy what I do and want to support Kofi: https://ko-fi.com/dadneedstotalk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Dadneedstotalk Follow me My website: https://dadneedstotalk.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/DadNeedsToTalk Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dadneedstotalkpodcast/

I checked out the manga, Rainbow: The Seven From Block 2 Cell 6 from author George Abe. This is a story of brotherhood that began in a juvenile reformatory with 7 young men and follows them across a decade of time.
