No teal to be seen.

And honestly, like I said, that kind of tracked.

I already told you about how it's been kind of a gloomy and a heavy season for me this past month.

So TBH, I probably needed some teal.

But I will say, as I'm editing this and finalizing this episode right now, I do have a teal silicone bracelet on it that I just ordered, just got it.

It says Genesis 49, 24.

So you might ask, why a teal bracelet and why or what does that verse have to say?

So I already told you, teal is my power color, so there was that.

But I also needed a reminder in this season.

Genesis 49, 24 says, but his bow remained steady.

His strong arm stayed limber because of the hand of the mighty one of Jacob.

The verse is part of Jacob's blessing over his son Joseph, highlighting that despite severe challenges and temptations, Joseph remained strong.

So to me, it's a reminder to stay steady, remain ready, and above all else, trust not in myself, but in the Lord.

I hope you can take some encouragement from that the same way I did.

And you don't need a teal.

But I'd love it if you came up with another power move of your own, whether that's your own color, a room decor, a playlist, whatever you can come up with that can help inspire you to be just a bit better.

And if you do, I'd love you to tell me about it.

Shoot me an email at tobyatundonepodcast.com and tell me what you're doing to optimize your performance.

Coming up on the show, I've got former All-American gymnast, entrepreneur, podcaster, and sport management professor, Dr. Courtney Beck.

I've also got a new solo shot brewing about the fourth quarter that I think you're going to enjoy.
