This episode reminds us that success does not always manifest the way we imagine. C. J. Stewart was drafted twice into Major League Baseball. Still, his big league playing career ended sooner than he hoped. What did not end was his impact. He went on to coach more than forty major league players. He was chosen as the physical model for the Hank Aaron statue at Truist Park. We explore how structure, self-reflection, and exposure to new ideas shape the lives we are capable of building.
