Since August, I’ve been on the IM.POSSIBLE School Assembly Tour, partnering with 36 schools across 14 states, and standing in front of 78 assemblies.

As the segment concluded with a home run, the room erupted in cheers and applause. This set the stage for the core message: chase your dreams even if they seem impossible, and never give up.
