What if everything you thought was success… still left you empty?
King Solomon—richer and wiser than anyone alive—looked at everything he built and said: “Meaningless… all of it.”
That line hits even harder today—because this episode goes live on my birthday, and I’ve been thinking deeply about what really matters. Not just what we grind for—but what we build that will actually last.
In a world chasing fast wins and constant validation, I’m reflecting on two stories that brought it all home for me:
> My son’s indoor track season—where doubt met determination
> A real-time journey with three of my newest business partners—where we’re grinding, growing, and finally stepping into the breakthrough we believed in from day one
We’re unpacking:
- Progress over placement
- Why real success takes foundation—not just speed
- And how legacy is built in the quiet work, not the loud wins
This isn’t just another motivational episode. It’s a reflection. A reminder.
And a charge to build something that will outlast the hype.
We talk mindset, consistency, confidence—and what legacy really looks like when you’re building it brick by brick.
Whether you’re deep in the grind, stuck in the middle, or just starting something new—this one’s for you.
If you’re ready to grow your legacy and make a lasting impact, I’d love to connect with you.
