Some people you follow for years before life puts you in the same room.
Coltrane and Lisa have been on my radar for a minuteā¦ the style, the agency, the way they move through New York like they belong to it. Getting to chop it up with them, actually talk? That was a gift.
They built Team Epiphany from nothing. Split sandwiches at 2nd Ave Deli. Lived above a sweat factory on Mulberry.
A skill met a skillā¦ and they never looked back.
What stays with me most is the ring.
His dadās Queens College ring, worn every single day.
That detail tells you everything about the kind of man he is.
Reminds me of the legacy Iām leaving for my Son š„¹šš¾
This oneās for the builders. The dreamers.
The couples who bet on each other before anyone else did.

Family Vacations hit different for us, and thatās by design. Experiences > Things. Friends Who Are Family (We Love You Winstonās). Santaās Village in the Arctic Circle (Finland). The most beautiful place Iāve ever been (Swiss Alps). 36hrs in London. We froze. We ate. We laughed. We lived. Thank you to the best wife and vacation planning duo ever (Country Dumplings- Lisa and Alyson). Where to next!!!! Blessed.
Ellington made the all-star team at his first @madehoopsevents Canp. Our love for him is no mystery, but this kids mental strength, fortitude, focus, dedication, humility and resilience is something that inspires Lisa and I. 6am strength workouts. Team practices. Weekend tournaments. Daily skill training. He trains not to miss, because he canāt- Bless Up Jus. Proud would be an understatement. @humbledevelopment thank you for getting him right. @newheightsnyc thanks for giving him the opportunity to prove that heās the best shooter in his class. At camp kids donāt pass - Thank you @showtime.c24 for getting my guy the rock. And a huge thank you to those that doubted him, guard up, see you in your nightmares. SHOOTER!!!!!!!!!! @ellingtonforthree
I turned 50 on the very same day I came into this world, on Thanksgiving Day. This was the perfect celebration as I embark on the 2nd half of my life. The love in the room is something that simply fuels me and gives me life. Thanks to everyone there. Thanks to some of the few who couldnāt make it. Thanks to the other folk who we botched their invite (on me). @djmos you body bagged it. @wsanyc you graciously hosted us. @masonbetha blessed us. @mslisachu you complete me. @jaredryder as the shooter. To many tags to tag everyone, just know big dogs were there in abundance. My heart is FULL. JC, your sprit was felt.
Before the day ends I just want to wish our first born a Happy One Four! Weāre so proud of the young man you are growing into. We couldnāt be more proud of you kiddo. š you @ellingtonforthree !
