Hey everyone, life isn't linear and neither is the journey but the goal is to keep making progress.

In this episode, I break down The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz — this is a life changing guide to not only personal freedom and emotional resilience. I talk about what each agreement means, how to actually live them out day to day, and the impact they can have on your mindset, relationships, and self-respect. But ultimately, I would encourage you to purchase the book and add it to your personal arsenal.

This episode will give you practical insight into how these simple yet POWERFUL principles can transform the way you see yourself, others, and the world around you.

Tune in and really listen and let’s grow together. 🌱

Hey everyone, life isn't linear and neither is the journey but the goal is to keep making progress.

In this episode I try to a take a diver into the century long decline of a policy that impacts the world, the devaluing of the US dollar. Back in 1913, a dollar could buy a lot more(see graph). Today, that same dollar is worth just a few pennies. We touch history of the dollar’s erosion and how it impacts you

You will discover how this “hidden tax” impacts your life every day: rising grocery bills, shrinking savings, higher debt costs, and an uphill battle for housing and retirement security.

By the end, I hope you’ll have a clearer picture of why the average American feels squeezed, even when wages go up—and why understanding dollar devaluation is key to protecting a sound world.

My most recent episode was inspired by a podcast I was listening to. From it where we explore the deep connections that shape our lives. In a world that's constantly changing, one thing remains true: the importance of friendship. Whether it’s a childhood bond that has withstood the test of time, or a new connection that just clicks, friendships are the threads that weave joy, support, and meaning into our daily lives. They shape us as people.

We’re diving into what makes friendships so essential, how they impact our well-being, and why investing in these relationships is one of the most rewarding things we can ever do. Are your friends someone you would starve with?

Hey everyone, welcome back for another episode of the Life Isn't Linear podcast. In today's world, it's essential to defend ourselves from having our feelings used against us. This means understanding our emotions, setting boundaries, and gaining self-awareness.

Hey everyone! I've been spending some brain power on Rivian lately. Rivian has been making waves as one of the all in on EV car companies. The stock keeps dropping so I started to explore what sets Rivian apart from other EV manufacturers, their growth potential, and the various factors to consider before investing in Rivian.

They have some nice partnerships with Amazon and their well built electric pickup (R1T) truck and SUV (R1S) are head turners. So I took some time analyze other factors driving Rivian's potential success and examine the risks and rewards of investing in the stock.

But is this enough to decide to put money towards them? Are they the next Tesla? Or will Rivian meet the same fate as so many other startups?

My hope is this will point you in a direction to make your own decision. This is NOT financial advice just the end of my journey that made me come to my own conclusion.
