Well TedHeads–here we are at the end of the “Ted Lasso” yellow brick road, and our final episode! This week Dimple and Jeff delve into Episode 12: "So Long, Farewell” and much like the TV show, come full circle and find some closure. In this episode we look at where our cast of characters end up and the various leadership and positive psychology themes from all three seasons that show up once more. We reflect on change, perfectionism, and always remembering that we’ll forever be, “works in prog-mess.”We have bittersweet feelings about this being our final episode, but we’re both filled with immense gratitude, not only for the opportunity to make this show, but for the connections we’ve made with many of you along the way. Thank YOU for joining us on this journey. Our greatest hope is that more of us will embody the “Lasso Way” and live life with curiosity, vulnerability, forgiveness, and grace. We’ll end by echoing the sentiments of AFC Richmond and simply say–so long, farewell, thank you for everything, and please keep in touch!
