quiet recovery room, foam roller in hand, and real talk finally breaking through—eric feeling like the mirror shows him slipping, renee admitting her knee only freaks her out when no one’s around. this? this is the real work. not just getting stronger but making a space where dropping the act means you still belong. this week’s been solid. sun’s been out. still wondering if it’s building or just busy, but today? today felt real.
