"No One is Coming" and "No Days Off": Chapter 10
We remind ourselves: nobody's coming, and there are no breaks. A betrayal cracks open old patterns, and instead of collapsing, we turn pain into performance. We meet deadlines, choose self-respect, and step into a love that matches our effort. Clarity and clear self-talk become our anchors. We begin to see why the patterns with Giovanny kept repeating and why they were so hard to break. Then came the Nantucket shoot, the email, and the pivot. Anger became fuel, channeled into focused, career-defining work. Football even became a metaphor for grit, inches, and mindset. Boundaries were set. The door finally closed for good. And in that awakening, a healthier match came into view, because we stayed in the game. My brand-new book, Shot at Love, is out now, and you can grab your copy today on Amazon.

Tune into "No One is Coming" and "No Days Off": Chapter 10. Sometimes the hardest truth can be the start of real momentum: no one is coming, and there are no days off. We open with mantras that sharpen courage and then walk straight into the messy middle—an on-again, off-again relationship, a high-stakes photography assignment with Bill Belichick on Nantucket, and a gutting discovery left open in an email. What follows isn’t a collapse; it’s a choice. With a deadline looming and another shoot with Julian Edelman on deck, we turn heartbreak into horsepower, swap rumination for execution, and let anger refine our focus instead of wrecking it.
You’ll hear how patterns take root, why sunk-cost thinking keeps the wrong door open, and how to close it with conviction. We unpack “no days off” as more than a sports slogan—it’s a personal operating system for resilience, discipline, and self-respect. Edelman’s legendary catch becomes a playbook for staying locked in when you’re inches from the ground: eyes on the ball, hands steady, outcome earned. The story moves from betrayal to boundary-setting, from tolerating less to choosing more, and from being benched by pain to calling your own plays.
There’s a twist of joy at the end—a right swipe and a match with former Patriots lineman Max Lane—arriving not as a rescue, but as the natural result of raising your standards. Along the way, we share the practical habits that keep you in motion: clear self-talk, tight routines, creative flow under pressure, and the courage to shut a door that keeps hurting you. If you’re navigating dating, rebuilding after a breakup, or pushing for excellence in your craft, this chapter offers tools and a real story to anchor them.
