Who's your Kennedy?

Hi Friends!

As you already know, I’ve been going through a pretty big life change, so I’ve been doing a ton of reflecting over the last few days… how I got here, what’s next, what I’m thankful for, and most importantly, what I want to be doing and WHO I want to experience life with.

So let’s take it waaaaay back to last year around this time in March.

I just got home from a long day of work and texted my BFF from physical therapy school, Kennedy. The text reads, “smash?” Now before you start wondering if this is an overtly disguised booty call, I will explain that this is an invitation to play the Nintendo Switch video game, Super Smash Brother’s, online. The most opposite of a booty call. 🤓

Occasionally after work, Kennedy and I will beat each other up virtually while we BS and laugh about our week. This is also where we share a lot of cool ideas we get, like the idea to sell a sticker of myself.

Kennedy is a really simple guy. He’s a great friend for over thinkers, isn’t over bearing, and won’t lie to you. So whenever I have an idea I’m super excited about, he’s almost always one of the first people I tell.
​
I pitch my “silly” sticker idea as we’re kicking and punching 💥 each other’s faces in and his response is simply, “Do it. I think it sounds like a great idea.” About a month later, I have a physical sticker of myself in my hands, and for sale online. And of course he was one of my first customers.

​
Kennedy has been the guinea pig in a TON of my very first videos both on and off of YouTube. They’ve since been taken off my channel because they were completely irrelevant to my content now, but they were foundational in discovering my love for creating. So of course, when he pitched his idea about streaming video games while telling physical therapy stories I said, “Do it. I think it sounds like a great idea.”

THE PROMPT: Who is your Kennedy? Who is the opposite of your Kennedy? Write down the 5 people you spend the most time with and look at your goals. Do these people support them? or get in the way? Be really honest. I totally agree with the whole, “you are the sum of the 5 people you hang around most” thing, so when I think about my future, I think hard about who I’d want to be a part of whatever I’m setting out to do. If you don’t already have a Kennedy in your life, it might be because you need to make room for one first. 👀

Also, when Kennedy and I were playing smash, he brought up the idea of doing a podcast later in life. So idk maybe like 2026 if we’re still feeling cute about it. Lettuce know what you think!
