Not sure if you guys will see this. Extremely inspiring what you guys have accomplished. I know you must hear this tons but you truly motivated me. I finished hockey like you guys did lacrosse and work a job that isn’t fulfilling. I’ve now started a clothing brand and do 2 jobs to grow it as you guys once did. The podcasts have helped, so so so so close to becoming my full time job. It’s almost there and I cannot wait

Just wanted to say thanks for the inspo and motivation. Should be very proud. One day we shall collab hahahahaha. I’ll get there 🤝

Beautifully worded… enjoy those moments with your parents as much as you can. Both of mine are gone and I would give anything to sit at the table with them.

I feel this way coaching high school soccer. To see the guys and their relationship makes me thankful for the opportunity to be so close to it and yet pushes me to mourn the loss of my own days as a player. Also shout out to supportive parents, there are few more impactful blessings.

After rereading this article several times I find its charm is never lost. It’s like revisiting an old friend, no matter how many times I go through it, I find something new to appreciate. Keep up the great work, and I can’t wait to see your next collection.

this is dope. It's a beautiful day to be in the moment and enjoy those around you. Thanks for this Marcus. Keep being you. I started running bc of you and have grown so much since then! I just ran a half marathon under 2 hrs (I never thought I could do that!). Grateful for you and the team (:

I am sitting at LAX with my college senior son wating for our flight to Melbourne for a final father son trip before he graduates and heads to NYC to start his career. As exited as he is, I am more excited to share this with him. So trust me when I say your parents enjoyed the time with you more than you did.

At the end of the day family is one of the most important things we have and the time spent with them is precious especially once we’re out in the world off on our own. Well written sir.

I’ve felt this so often since having kids and now being a parent appreciating this feeling with my parents as well. You described it perfectly.

To be present is a present 🎁
