Myles Garrett was a powerhouse on the field. His strength and tenacity made him a dominant force for the Cleveland Browns. But despite his outward appearance, Myles often struggled with the pressure of living up to everyone's expectations. The weight of his potential was a burden he carried in silence.
Then he met Hannah, a therapist who worked with athletes to help them manage the emotional weight of their careers. Hannah was different from the others—she didn't try to fix Myles. She simply listened.
Through their sessions, Myles learned to process his emotions and take control of the inner battles that often held him back. Hannah taught him that true strength wasn't just about physical power—it was about emotional resilience.
One night, after a game where Myles had felt he didn't perform to his best, he found himself sitting with Hannah on a quiet bench in the stadium. The lights were dimmed, and the crowd had already left.
"You don't have to prove yourself to anyone," Hannah said softly. "You've already done enough."
Myles closed his eyes, taking a deep breath. For the first time in his career, he realized that he didn't need to carry the weight of the world on his shoulders. He just needed to be true to himself.
