S6 Ep 527Ep.527 - Stay with It! I Promise It Is Worth It!

I remember working as a superintendent by day, and pretending to be a superhero by night for my kiddos. Life between the age of 20 and 40 can be grueling and hectic. Sometimes it feels like you do anything you can just to get through it-sacrificing time with your significant other, asking too much of your physical and emotional health, neglecting things because you can't quite decide which fire is the most alarming. For all of you struggling through these years-having little ones, changing diapers, staying up late, coaching and watching endless games, finishing school, and establishing a life, I want to say I see you there. I'm cheering for you and your family. Do what you can to stay with it and the rewards will be priceless. Love, Jason
