Who Told You That You Couldn't Dream Big?

Why do so many of us secretly believe there are things we're not allowed to want — a school, a job, a kind of joy — because of who we are? Antonio unpacks how internalized limits get planted early, and how they quietly run our lives long after we've "made it." Drawing on his own story — from a debate opponent who couldn't picture him in college, to strangers who couldn't picture him as a lawyer — Antonio traces a different way of seeing, one shaped by time spent in Malawi and by a 2,000-year-old story about a woman searching for a lost coin. It's not a pep talk. It's a case for why the search itself matters, even when you don't get back exactly what you lost. If you've ever wondered who gets to decide what's possible for you, this one's worth 25 minutes of your time.
