The Lasso Way

Sophia and I watched the series finale of Ted Lasso last night. It was bittersweet as it has been one of our favorite shows post-pandemic, but it ended at the right time, in the right way. The show has been a brain cleanse and a reminder that there is a lot of good in the world.

We live in a tough world and society. It doesn’t take much to feel a bit jaded about your life or circumstances. A 5 minute scroll through Instagram can take a huge mental toll on your psyche. It can be really easy to compare yourself to others by money, looks, goods, etc. The bad news cycle perpetuates negative thoughts in our brains.

I know it’s just a silly and albeit corny TV show at times, but there’s a lot to learn from Ted Lasso. I’m not sure if the writers intended this to act as therapy for some folks, but it certainly played part therapist for me.

If anything, I’ll remember that there’s a right way to do things and a wrong way, no matter the outcome. Thanks Ted.
