When I sold my coaching company in 2022, I thought I’d finally have the time to focus on what truly mattered: my family… For 11 years, my wife Lauren and I had been raising our four daughters, and somewhere along the way, our marriage had become an afterthought—a neglected garden in desperate need of tending.
It was late on a Friday afternoon in 2022, and there I was, negotiating the sale of my coaching company. Josh leaned back and said, “You can make millions more if you hold onto this for a few more years.” He wasn’t wrong—I’d done the math so many times my calculator was considering a restraining

It’s 5:35 am, and here I am, holed up in what I affectionately call my “home office”—which is, let’s be real, a glorified wardrobe. I laugh at myself… Flashback over a decade ago, and it was a wardrobe that was the birthplace of my first online business. Back then, I had just ditched my life
