Through the Dip: Recognizing the Slump, Reclaiming the Edge

Caution, Clarity, and the Slump We Know Too Well

Let’s call it what it is—last night was rough. No sugarcoating needed. We’ve gone from a white-hot run into March Madness to an undeniable cold snap, and anyone who’s been with us knows what this part of the year can feel like.

We’ve seen this movie before. Post-March Madness slumps are real. April last year? Not our proudest stretch. And right now, we’re seeing the warning signs all over again.

But here’s the difference this time: we’ve evolved.

We’ve learned how to manage the slumps. We’re not going to panic, chase, or overreact. We’re going to play it smarter, lean harder on the indicators, and treat every play like it’s the only one that matters.

Today we’re back at it—with more caution, more thought, and a deeper awareness of the trap we refuse to fall into again.

Let’s stabilize, regroup, and get back to building forward.
