In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Taylor Garrison—a former professional baseball pitcher, whose real story begins when the game ended. We talk about his journey through elite sports, the mental and emotional weight that comes with chasing a dream, and the quiet unfolding that happened when it all fell away.
Taylor opens up about life after baseball: the identity loss, the healing, and the inner work it took to reconnect with his body, mind, and spirit. From breathwork and yoga to dance, music, and drawing, he’s found new ways to move through the world—literally and energetically. Now, through his coaching and creative work, Taylor helps young athletes learn to move with intention and stay grounded in who they are, not just what they do.
This one’s about more than just sports—it’s about transition, transformation, and tuning in. Whether you're an athlete, a parent, or just someone navigating change, there's something here for you.
