Hey guys—I'm Kale, Lori’s son.
If you’ve been around here for a while, you’ve probably seen parts of my life through my mom’s posts. But this… this is a part of my story I’ve never really sat down and shared like this before.
And honestly, I think it’s time.
Because I don’t think people really understand what it feels like when your life just… resets.
For me, it all hit at once.
Losing More Than Just a Game
After my dad passed, I was still trying to play college baseball my sophomore year. I wanted to keep going—I really did—but mentally, I just couldn’t do it anymore. I was drained, burned out, and honestly just trying to survive the day-to-day.
And when I stepped away… it wasn’t just losing my dad anymore.
It was losing baseball too.
And that was my whole life.
Baseball wasn’t just a sport for me.
It was structure. Discipline. Brotherhood. Routine.
It gave my life direction.
My days were built around it. I didn’t have to wonder what I was doing next… it was already there.
Then all of a sudden—it wasn’t.
When You Lose Your Structure, You Lose Yourself Too
I went into that summer and eventually transferred to GCU for my junior year, but everything felt off. Like I was living a life I didn’t really recognize.
No baseball. My dad gone.
And I kept thinking…
What am I even supposed to do now?
I had all this free time—but no direction.
No routine.
No structure.
No clear next step.
And over time, that started showing up in how I felt every single day.
I was constantly tired.
Unmotivated.
Distracted.
Mentally exhausted. Stressed all the time. Struggling to focus.
Even going to the gym felt different.
It used to be something I loved. Something that was part of who I was.
Now it felt… bittersweet.
Like I knew it was good for me—but it also reminded me of everything I had lost.
Grief Doesn’t Just Hit Emotionally—It Hits Physically
When life hits you like that, it’s not just in your head.
It shows up in your body.
Your energy drops.
Your focus disappears.
Your drive just… isn’t there anymore.
And for a while, I just sat in that.
Trying different things. Hoping something would click.
But it felt like I was just stacking layer after layer of exhaustion.
The Moment I Decided Something Had to Change
Eventually, I hit a point where I was just done.
Done feeling stuck.
Done feeling like I had no control.
Done feeling like I wasn’t even myself anymore.
And I remember thinking:
I can’t keep living like this.
I might not be able to control what’s happened…
but I can control what I do next.
Rebuilding My Health, Discipline, and Mindset
For me, that meant starting over.
Not all at once.
Not perfectly.
But intentionally.
Rebuilding my health.
Rebuilding my routine.
Rebuilding my discipline.
Rebuilding my mindset.
Because I know I’m meant to be more than this version of myself that feels tired, off, and stuck.
I know I’m supposed to feel sharp again. Focused again. Structured again.
I’m not there yet… but I’m working on it.
Why I’m Taking a Different Approach
That’s what led me into this next step.
Part curiosity.
Part frustration.
But mostly just a desire to change.
I started realizing that if I wanted my energy, focus, and drive back… I had to look deeper.
Not just surface-level fixes.
But what’s actually going on inside my body.
What I’m lacking.
What needs to be rebuilt from the inside out.
And that’s what I’m starting to focus on now.
Documenting the Real Journey
I’m not here to pretend I have it all figured out.
I’m documenting this as I go.
Not the perfect version—the real version.
Because if you’ve ever felt like life flipped on you…
like you lost your structure, your direction, or even a part of who you were—
then you get it.
This is what a reset looks like.
If You’re in a Reset Season Too
Maybe your story looks different than mine.
But if you’re in a season where you feel stuck, off, or like you’re starting over…
I just want you to know—you’re not alone in that.
And you don’t have to stay there.
This is mine.
This is my reset.
And I’m choosing to take control of what I can.
