As I sip my morning chocolate espresso, thanks to my favorite coffee purveyor, Nespresso, I want to share some thoughts on our industry, the economy, and the personal journey that's brought us all to this moment.

I just returned from speaking at the NADP conference in Palm Springs that was enlightening in more ways than one. While on stage with fellow investors, we witnessed significant economic turbulence that felt eerily reminiscent of scenes from The Big Short.

The current economic landscape, influenced by shifting government operations and international relations, creates both volatility and opportunity.

2024 was a year that demanded resilience from everyone. I learned that closing doors on certain relationships opened new opportunities and reinforced the importance of resilience. 

Resilience has been on my mind lately. My daughter Elizabeth embodies it perfectly. She lost her mother at a young age, yet has grown into this remarkably strong woman who faces challenges head-on. Watching her navigate life reminds me that resilience isn't just about enduring hardship; it's about emerging stronger on the other side.

I'm going to leave you with an inspiring call to action: "Life is your book. Stop reading it and start writing it."
