Turning Memories Into a Lasting Legacy
In today’s episode, I sit down with David Gastelum, founder of DASH, an AI-powered platform built to preserve the memories and stories that define a life.

How to Build a Culture
In this weeks ‘Friday Training’ episode, I shared why culture, not charisma or short-term wins is the foundation of any great organization. When companies shift from being founder-centric to culture-centric, they build something that can weather change, inspire people, and last well beyond any one leader. We discussed the three pillars of lasting culture: a clear purpose, empowered people, and systems that support shared values. Real impact comes when culture is lived every day, not just posted on a wall. If you want your business to thrive long-term, focus on the habits, beliefs, and structures that will stand the test...

The Never-Ending Chase: Why ‘More’ Will Never Be Enough
