The Last Atom: Creating the Future

One thing I know for sure: the future doesn’t just “happen“.

It’s created. In hearings, headlines, and everything messy in between. What we saw today wasn’t perfect. But it was real. It was human.

The future doesn’t start with permission, it starts with motion.

Let’s build what comes next. Together.

Appreciate your time. Appreciate your fire. See you Friday! 👋🏼
