Dad, I just wanted to share one of the most meaningful moments of my life—a 30-minute video call with you in Miami. You took me under your wing as I find my way after a four-year relationship ended. It gave me the chance to experience something I’d missed as a child: a father guiding me with his wisdom and grounded masculinity after you and Mom separated when I was about two.
Our conversation went far beyond the breakup. It touched many parts of my life and reminded me how proud I am of the balance, respect, responsibility, love, and honor that guide me—the values that define my ishin, my inner spirit and determination.
