  • Becoming Visible: When Other People See Your Leadership Before You Do

    Becoming Visible: When Other People See Your Leadership Before You Do
    Sep 9 2026
    Sometimes the people around us recognize our growth before we do.

    During my senior year of college, I began showing up differently. I was more expressive, more confident, and increasingly willing to offer perspectives I had previously kept to myself. To me, I was simply becoming more comfortable in my own skin. To other people, however, something significant was changing.

    A hall director challenged me to speak up after realizing that the quiet recommendations I whispered to her were often the ideas she ultimately followed.

    An ROTC colonel questioned why someone with my leadership abilities continued operating in the background.

    They were not giving me abilities I didn’t possess. They were helping me recognize what was already there.

    In this companion episode of IN THE KNOW with Tony Reeves, I reflect on quiet competence, professional visibility, receiving positive feedback, and learning to own the version of yourself that other people may already see. Because sometimes growth isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about becoming comfortable enough to stop hiding who you have already become.

    Has anyone ever recognized a strength or possibility in you that you struggled to see for yourself?

  • I Moved to Tampa Before I Even Applied to Graduate School

    I Moved to Tampa Before I Even Applied to Graduate School
    Sep 7 2026
    At 23 years old, I transferred my job from Tallahassee to Tampa because I intended to attend graduate school at the University of South Florida. There was just one important detail: I hadn’t applied yet.

    I paid for the move myself, rented a truck and car dolly, found an apartment, coordinated the end of one lease with the beginning of another, and drove around Tampa with my checkbook getting the utilities connected—all before knowing whether the graduate program would accept me.

    From the outside, it probably looked as though I had uprooted my life without a plan. But in my mind, I had created something different: a no-lose situation. I still had a job. I already had an undergraduate degree. I was returning to a city I knew. The state would pay for graduate courses related to my work. And while my application was being considered, I could begin proving myself as a non-degree-seeking student.

    In this episode of IN THE KNOW with Tony Reeves, I revisit one of the boldest decisions of my early professional life and examine the difference between recklessness and taking a calculated chance on yourself.

    Sometimes you don’t receive confirmation before making the move. Sometimes the move is how you position yourself for the opportunity.

    Have you ever made a decision that looked risky to everyone else but made perfect sense once you understood what you still had working in your favor?

    If you’re confronting a career decision, weighing security against purpose, or learning to trust yourself without having every guarantee, explore the Career Crossroads Collection: Decisions, Doubt, and Owning Your Place.

    The collection brings together four personal reflections about leaving comfort, making consequential decisions, confronting imposter feelings, and learning to own your professional value.

  • Their World Is Not Ours: When Experience Becomes Advice

    Their World Is Not Ours: When Experience Becomes Advice
    Sep 2 2026
    At what point does sharing your experience become telling someone else how they should live? In my recent video, I told the story of a decision my mother made when I chose to attend the University of Tampa. She knew my choice could create financial difficulties. She knew I had other opportunities. And she knew that if she told me to choose another school, I probably would have listened. But she also knew what it felt like to have the direction of her own education changed by circumstances outside of her control. So she made a deliberate choice: She would give me guidance, but she wouldn’t make the decision for me.

    In this companion episode of IN THE KNOW with Tony Reeves, I want to take that story one step further. As members of Generation X—and simply as people who have accumulated decades of life and professional experience—we have knowledge worth sharing. But Gen Z and Gen Alpha aren’t entering the world we entered.

    Their economy is different.
    Their educational landscape is different.
    Their workplace is different.
    Their opportunities are different.

    So how do we give younger generations the benefit of what we’ve learned without handing them a roadmap for a world that no longer exists? Maybe the goal isn’t: “Do what I did.” Maybe it’s: “Here’s what I learned. Let’s figure out what still applies to the world you’re navigating.”
    🎧 Listen as we explore the difference between experience, advice, influence and allowing the next generation to build a path of its own.
