Here’s what most people miss about being a business owner: You make decisions that can shape the livelihoods of others. If your business fails, people may struggle to support their families. That scares most people. For the successful, it fuels them.

I’ve seen 26-year-olds come up with ideas that 48-year-olds would never imagine. Being older only gives you one real edge in business: experience. But experience alone does not make you a leader. Creativity does. Command does. The ability to deliver does. And some of the

Imagine if everything in life was as good as gold. It’s easy to invest in, could help grow your wealth, and protect it too. A timeless asset that stands strong when others may not.

Here’s one of the most valuable skills every entrepreneur should learn: The ability to read a wide range of personalities. If you’re still in the building phase, you’re probably talking to hundreds of people every day. There’s the guy who struggles with communication. There’s

Here’s what separates real leaders from the ones who drain their teams: They give critical feedback. They offer real alternatives. They make people smarter, not smaller. Anyone can bark orders, but very few can elevate a room.

Writing a book is no simple endeavor. My wife had the vision, but finishing took support. I kept reminding her why she started, & set a launch party date so she had something concrete to aim for. She delivered & we celebrated! "I’m Sorry" by Meika Harmon is now out in the

When I joined, our pricing had been stagnant. But raising prices wasn’t enough. We turned our CS team into a revenue engine by upselling new features to long-time clients. Sales focused on landing new business, and overall growth accelerated.

Three kids in three states means a lot of FaceTime. It works, but nothing replaces being in the same room. Remote teams are the same, the check-ins matter, but intentional in-person time resets the connection. How do you keep the momentum going when the team is remote?

I used to wait until Monday to react to my calendar invited. Now, if it matters, family dinner, workouts, 1:1s, facetime with my VP's, it gets scheduled. A busy calendar isn't a negative, if the meetings are intentional.

If everything runs through one person, growth hits a wall. I’ve seen founder-led companies stall because the team couldn’t move without them. Scale starts when decisions, ownership, and systems spread beyond a single desk.

Early on, I held on to low performers too long. Now I spot it faster, but I use it to coach my leaders. I don’t override them. I ask questions, and wait. Seeing it yourself is how you grow as a leader.

High-performance teams aren’t built on resumes. They’re built on people with the desire to learn, grow, and take initiative when things shift. My experience? Mindset has been a better predictor of success than skill.

Young leaders think they need permission to lead people older than them. Nonsense. I've seen 28-year-olds run circles around 50-year-olds in leadership roles. Age gives you experience, but it doesn't automatically make you a better leader.

25 years of marriage with 3 kids taught me more about leadership than any business book. Managing a household is harder than managing a company. If you can keep a family happy and functioning, you can run anything. Yet nobody puts "successful parent" on their resume.

I moved from corporate to real estate to tech. "You don't have experience in that industry." Industry experience is overrated. Leadership principles are universal. Good operators can succeed anywhere.

Faith and business don't mix, they said. I've made every major business decision with my values as the foundation. Sometimes doing the right thing is also the most profitable thing. Your moral compass is your competitive advantage.

Work-life balance is a myth that keeps people mediocre. I've been married 25 years, raised 3 kids, and grown companies. There's no balance. There's only integration. Some seasons you work more. Some seasons you family more. But you never half-ass either one.
