I started working out with Hayden, Paul, Jeff, Prem, Juan David, Aditya, and Adam joined us. It’s been crazy to reflect to think that we started doing virtual workouts every week in service of staying in shape. As everyone is getting to vaccinated in the US- there is relief that there is some sort of normalcy.

I know not all countries are privileged enough to get the vaccines, but it does give me hope that we are one step closer.

I want to give gratitude to Bully Juice, Wilson Fraser, and all of the workout videos we have done. Thank you, Zoom, YouTube, and Amazon, for helping us get resistance bands. It’s been cool to work out 55 weeks in a row. Being an ENFP, sometimes consistency is one of the hardest practices but can give us so much when we push ourselves.

I want to take this time to acknowledge Paul Ly for your consistency, commitment to growth, and your friendship. You’re always super supportive, and I appreciate you staying in touch with me. I can’t wait to see you again in person.

I want to acknowledge Hayden for going hard and always pushing yourself. You have so much integrity, and you never show up late. You communicate so well, and you take responsibility for everything. Your actions and your vision inspires others to be the best version of themselves.

Jeff,

Thank you so much for all that you bring in bringing men closer together. You are the glue to so many communities, and we appreciate your heart-filled leadership.

Mike,

Thanks for bringing laughter and joy into the workouts. That’s a hard thing to do early first thing in the morning but it was fun vibing out with you.

Aditya,

I’m so glad you’ve become one of my closest friends. You have so much integrity and how committed you are to your relationship with Pan inspires us to know what’s possible when you truly prioritize each other.

Adam,

Thank you for your beautiful heart and your allyship to so many different causes. We need more people like you in the world.

Juan David,

Thanks for your vulnerability and being able to share yourself. You are setting the example of a growth mindset.

Prem,

Thanks, man. It’s hard to express in words our partnership and how much it means to me. You’ve helped transform one of the most stressful relationships I have, and I know many people struggle with their relationship to money, but you have helped me see perspective.

Here is a picture of Paul, Hayden, and I on our last zoom work out together as we step closer towards what it was like prior to the pandemic over a year ago. Thank you for the community, helping us stay sane and ultimately the past 13 months have been the most transformative months of my life due to all of the relationships I’ve cultivated with all of you.
