Welcome back to this week's episode with Lewis Brinson. The 2012 first-round draft pick by the Texas Rangers out of high school. Lewis was a highly touted prospect in high school before finding himself in the draft. He then carried that status to the Major Leagues when he debuted in June 2017. Eventually, he took his game overseas and played in Japan before finishing up in Mexico. 
 
I briefly interacted with Lewis a few years ago in California and instantly gravitated to his vibe. He has an enthusiasm about him that is hard not to appreciate. Fortunately, we reconnected this past winter and found time to converse. The recently retired ball player took his curiosity to entrepreneurship and creation. Whether his endeavors lead down the path of speaking or creating community, it's hard not to admire the life he brings to his craft. 
 
Lewis has traveled the world playing ball, experiencing pressures and circumstances that many athletes do not. I thoroughly enjoyed walking through the path and listening to him describe awareness. His ability to articulate stories and scenarios that occurred in his career, making him who he is today, inspires anyone. Finding ourselves within our journey brings us closer to our voice. The most authentic version of who we are. I feel this conversation expressed that. One Love.
