In this raw journal entry, I process a moment of unexpected resistance from someone I trust deeply—my wife. After getting excited about the jump starter and mental rewire idea, I share it with her only to feel like it completely misses the mark for her—and maybe for us as a family. I reflect on the tension between personal ambition and relational alignment, on whether this is really me, and what it means to move forward with something that honors more than just myself. I also touch on an emerging book idea: The Means Doesn’t Matter.

If you've ever felt totally aligned and then suddenly unsure, this episode might hit home.
