Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone
I remember it like it was yesterday. The date was January 2, 2002. I peered through the window of my airplane, taking in the sights around me as I touched down at the Madrid Barajas airport. As I disembarked from the plane and began walking to baggage claim for my bags, it hit me. Everything […]
Can You Unplug?

Reflecting on the Hike of a Lifetime on the Camino de Santiago
I just returned from facilitating the Hike of a Lifetime on the Camino de Santiago in Spain. Our group was comprised of seven men, all business owners or business leaders that were looking to unplug and disconnect, so they can recenter and refocus on what’s important in their life, family and business. This experience has […]
Why Am I Writing a Children’s Book?
“Shouldn’t you stay in your lane and write another business book?” This was stated to me a few weeks ago from a fellow business owner, curious as to why I am writing a children’s book. He is a friend of mine, and asked me with the most helpful and curious intentions. After the release of […]
