Yesterday’s show with Cam McLeod, and our two hour conversation about many things, was a great second episode of Ascent Life, and really challenged me to think about what it means to live our best life, and why? So, I encourage you to go back and watch that, and maybe put it on 1.25 speed to burn through a little faster. We went full Joe Rogan, as far as length.

But after we stopped recording. Cam encouraged me to share more of my personal journey with you all, and I agree. But, I’m also hesitant. Despite my forward appearance with podcasting, and hosting shows, I’m a fairly private person. Most of my social media posts are to promote our shows along with the occasional funny meme, or an accomplishment or celebration of one my kids.

Outside of that, I rarely share personal thoughts and opinions on social media, because it’s a hell-hole of judgement. I think…

But a blog.

Or, in this case a podcast / vlog where the point is to learn about ourselves, and learn how to become the best version of ourselves, I feel Cam was right to share more of that personal process with you.

So, first, a couple things I’m working to improve on this year.

  1. My health / fitness - I need to lose 50lbs. 
  2. My personal income - I need to increase my income to a number where I can again save & invest. Since becoming self-employed in October ’22 (27 months), I haven’t replaced the income I was making at my job. 

I decided last night, to use Monday’s as a recap of my week, and how I personally performed to hit my goals, so that you, the audience can follow along, and offer any tips, suggestions, razz me. 

But, more importantly, you’re front row to my transformation into living an Ascent Life

I would like to hear from you and your successes…

So, welcome to the show!
