There comes a time when you realize that being different wasn’t a weakness...it was the beginning of your edge. The clothes you wear, the words you choose, the way you walk into a room....it all speaks before you say a word. You weren’t made to follow the script. You were made

Celebrating my great aunt Vickie's 100th (!!!) birthday! A legend!

There’s a version of success the world wants you to chase. Fast. Loud. Shiny. Metrics, not meaning. Followers, not fulfillment. But one day… all of that begins to feel hollow. Real success...the kind that stands the test of time...looks different. It’s not just what you

History’s greatest leaders weren’t the ones who followed the path...but the ones who forged it. Legacy is built in the moments when comfort is traded for conviction. When you take risks not for applause, but for alignment with a deeper mission. If you’re building something to

Not just admired. Studied. The standard. The blueprint. When you choose excellence with consistency, when you move through the world with intention and integrity, you become more than successful...you become instructive. People build institutions around those legacies. Be the

You can have the power, the title, the tailored suit, the gated estate...but none of it means anything if you forget the "why" behind it all. Build your empire, but don’t lose the faces that once cheered for you when the dream was just a sketch on a napkin. Don’t trade every

Presenting the very first episode of our husband and wife podcast, "The Bachelor and the Mom," where we discuss the realities of what it's like to date a single mother, merge families together, create real, lasting love, and becoming the best version of yourself in the process.

They’ll tell you timing is everything. That the right moment will reveal itself if you’re patient... That opportunities have a way of finding those who deserve them. It sounds noble. It’s also the reason most people never see their ambitions turn into reality. The truth is,

To provide is not simply to meet needs..it's to build a world in which your family can thrive. It is more than a roof overhead or food on the table. It is the silent vigilance of knowing where the dangers are before they arrive. It is the discipline to make hard decisions

True legacy is not wealth left in vaults, but wisdom left in minds.

True power has never been about possessions or positions. Money can vanish overnight. Titles lose their meaning with time. Even empires crumble. But presence...the weight of how you move, how you hold silence, how others instinctively adjust themselves in your orbit...that is

This is how to save yourself from dating the wrong person. It’s a difficult (damn near impossible) but highly effective strategy to make sure you don't miss or overlook any glaring red flags. The Bachelor and the Mom podcast is now streaming on all platforms. #dating

Legacy is not a statue with your name etched into its base. It is not the fleeting applause of your generation. It is not even the wealth stacked in vaults to be distributed when you are gone. Legacy is the echo of your presence...what lingers when you are no longer in the room,

Time humbles all men. Empires rise, fortunes are spent, titles fade into irrelevance. But what survives is not the noise of the moment...it is the permanence of character carried forward by those who remain. Legacy is the only form of immortality within reach. You cannot

Possessions can be lost. Titles can be stripped. Even fortunes can vanish. But presence...the way a man carries himself, the certainty he projects, the steadiness he embodies...cannot be taken away. Presence is permanence. It lingers after you leave a room. It is remembered

A saturated market is not the same thing as a competitive market. Just because a lot of people are doing something, doesn’t mean they're doing it well. If you want to start a new venture, don't ask: "How many people are already doing this?" Instead, ask: "How can I elevate

Most men measure their lives by their accomplishments. The gentleman measures his by his impact. A building may crumble, a company may be sold, but the impact you leave on hearts, minds, and souls will ripple through generations unseen. Impact is not noise; it is permanence. It
