## Caption

I make it my job to see the unconventional story.
I tell stories about how self-growth, leadership, faith, and living a life with purpose end up making a difference: in our own life, in relationships, on a team, and in a community— and the fact is, what makes a difference is usually pretty unconventional. So, here we are.

This year I had the honor of telling the stories of the 2022 Major League Baseball season and the home team I was placed with was the San Diego Padres (I’d like to think not by accident). 
30 teams, one World Series Champ, and many stories that I could share… but the one I want to tell is about them. It’s about their courage to do one of the most difficult parts of leadership— and frankly, why they should inspire the heck out of you.

My hope is that a little more of the truth of what these guys truly accomplished this year gets to Shine. What I had the honor to witness left me very proud. Ultimately, I hope that it sets the stage for someone, or a future team, to follow in their footsteps.

Their story, along with many yet-to-be-seen photos can be found on my website through the “Difference Makers” tab. The link in my bio and the link in my stories will take you there.

For the love of the game— the one on the dirt and the bigger & deeper one that transcends it — enjoy!
