WHAT I’M WRITING ABOUT
|
Sheepdog Strength
Being Sheepdog strong is about leading with intention, awareness, and empathy. It’s not just about being in charge; it’s about understanding and connecting with everyone around you, whether it’s your team, strangers, or those closest to you. A Sheepdog stands firm in adversity, but does so with compassion and care for others.
To be truly Sheepdog strong, self-mastery is key. It’s not just personal growth—it’s building the mental and emotional resilience to face challenges and lead effectively. Mastering yourself allows you to serve others better, showing up with clarity, integrity, and purpose, no matter the circumstances.
As a Sheepdog, you will be tested in ways that challenge your resolve, but these tests are opportunities to strengthen your leadership. Stay focused on the greater good and remember that leadership is about service. Lead with purpose, with strength, and with compassion. Your role is protecting, supporting, and guiding others, even in the most challenging moments. Hooyah!

PRACTICE OR HABIT TO TRY
|
One-Week Ankle Mobility Practice: It’s time to focus on those often-overlooked ankles. I challenge you to commit 10 minutes daily to improve your ankle mobility this week. Start with ankle circles—rotate each foot 10-15 times in both directions. Next, get into the dorsiflexion stretch: kneel and push your front knee over your toes while keeping your back heel down for 20-30 seconds per leg. Move on to wall ankle stretches, pressing your back heel into the ground to stretch your calves. Add in some toe raises—rise up onto the balls of your feet and hold for a few seconds. Use a resistance band for ankle flexion and extension, repeating 10-15 reps. Finish strong with foam rolling to release tightness in your calves. Stick to this routine daily, and you’ll notice improved flexibility, strength, and overall mobility. Let’s get after it!
