In this episode, Winston tells the story of the day it all finally came into focus — a coaching retreat, a reading assignment he almost skipped, and one page of Richard Rohr's Falling Upward that gave him permission to hold two things at once: gratitude for a pattern that had carried him for decades, and readiness to finally let it go.\nIn This Episode\n•  The story behind page forty-three of Falling Upward — Rohr's ‘Discharging the Loyal Soldier,’ and the post-WWII Japanese ritual (via Bill Plotkin) that gave Winston language for his own recognition moment.\n•  Why recognition isn't a single insight but closer to a ritual — honoring what a pattern built, then deliberately releasing it.\n•  The Balcony — an image from Teresa McCloy, a future guest on the show — for why you can't see your own life clearly from inside it.\n•  Two very different kinds of forced slowing in Winston's life: a retreat he didn't choose, and a consulting practice that went quiet in 2019.\n•  Romans 12:2 and the idea of a mind being renewed — not through more effort, but through release.\n•  The question Winston is carrying out of the Recognize movement and into Release: what would it look like to formally thank what has carried you this far, and then let it go?\nFeatured Poems\nRead the full poems in My Reflections: https://myreuniontour.com/my-reflections\n\n•  Tour Day 993: “The Wall” (opening)\n•  Tour Day 994: “Higher” (closing)\nBoth poems were composed this week, in the course of writing this episode — and ‘Higher’ independently landed on the exact dance-floor and balcony images the episode is built around.\n\nBooks Mentioned in This Episode\n\n•  Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life, by Richard Rohr\n•  The Critical Journey: Stages in the Life of Faith, by Janet O.
