In this episode, Will welcomes Zane, an accomplished analyst at JP Morgan, a former competitive athlete whose discipline still shows up in everything he does, and above all, a loyal friend whose character quietly commands respect. From Dallas roots to a life in New York City, Zane joins Silent Service to explore the deeper currents that shape how we love, work, and live.
They begin with Zane’s upcoming wedding, diving into meaningful conversations about marriage: non-negotiables like date nights, the “get a dog before kids” idea, and how solitude fits into shared life. Then, they shift into the realm of money and meaning, where Zane reflects on investing with integrity, and Will challenges the idea that wealth is the ultimate goal.
Together, they unpack what money can’t buy—peace at 3AM, a healthy home, admiration from your kids—and explore why stewarding your resources well reveals more about your heart than your bank account.
This is a rich, grounded, and generous conversation with someone whose humility runs deep. Tune in for a reminder that kindness is still a superpower, and wisdom is the most valuable thing you can build.
Quote of The Day: “Be the kind of person your future self will thank you for becoming.”
