More Than

We are all MORE THAN whatever label this world puts on us. By day I'm a CEO, but outside of that I'm just a person trying to figure out life. I write about interesting findings, ideas, and advice helping me navigate business and life.

it's been a while, friend - hello

Happy Sunday fam - Its been a minute since I've come here and just shared some thoughts. Well, lets do it. I have a lot to update you all on. Update #1: I just finished a 10-day smoothie fast. No sugar. No processed foods. Nothing but green smoothies and some boiled eggs, fruit, or raw nuts if I got hungry. Why did I do this? Because I was ready to unlock another version of myself. We kicked off Brick By Brick and I've been blessed to work hands on with 15 founders to help them build their...

Hey there - I just dropped a video about Ashton Hall - the fitness influencer who's got everyone talking about his "cringe" morning routine. You know the one... Banana peels on his face. Ice water dunks. Saratoga water product placements. But while everyone's busy laughing at him, I'm looking at his numbers: → 9 million Instagram followers → 5 million TikTok followers → 3 million YouTube subscribers → $250,000 monthly income (and growing) That's more than most doctors and lawyers combined....

Holy cow - Something wild happened... Last week, I accidentally broke LinkedIn (in the best way possible) after grinding out content for a full year. The results? Mind-blowing: 7M organic impressions (not a typo!) 6,000 new followers overnight My DMs are EXPLODING with interview requests My calendar is packed with dream clients Want to know the wild part? That viral post only took 45 minutes to write (with a little AI sauce). I just recorded a behind-the-scenes video showing EXACTLY how I...

66 days. 66 days to lock in on that one goal you have and make it happen. This isn't one of those fear-mongering emails. It's a quick reminder to let you know that you have the PERFECT amount of time left to win this year still. ~70 days is the perfect amount of time to change your life. But only focus on ONE THING. What's that ONE thing you want to accomplish this year? Weight loss? Lock in on that diet and workout TODAY. Financial goal? Lock in on that budget and increase your income TODAY....

happy Sunday squad - I'm going to keep this one short because I'm headed out to the Kirk Franklin concert! One of my friends had a suite and invited us to come, so we're headed out! But before I go - I had a few things on my mind today (whats new?) 1 - You're doing meetings all wrong My calendar got swapped last week with meetings. And 67% of them (yes I tracked them), were pointless. I read this book once a quarter and also make my team do so as well. Please read this. It will save you time,...

Hey fam - Man, what a week I’ve had. In the best way possible. All week I’ve been exploring the West Coast (Vegas, Portland, Oregon Coast, Seattle). The only con about this week has been the 4 am wake-up time to take meetings scheduled back when I was on the East Coast. Bummer. But this trip reminded me of something - The feeling you have when you are aligned. In 2021, I was transitioning out of my corporate job. I was lost, and confused, and thought I was making the worst decision possible....

Hey fam - I’m OOO this week. I’ve traveled to ~8 countries this year. And while I've had a blast on each trip, each trip has been a work trip. So this week, I decided to take some time off and reset a bit. I’ll still be doing some meetings and light work, but most of my time this week will be spent reflecting, relaxing, and having some good eats. Why am I telling you this? As a reminder that the greats take breaks. A few weeks ago I got burnt out. Like really burnt out. Like, couldn't get out...

Hey fam - WORK has been beating me up these past few months. So many changes in our team, my travel and bandwidth, and building up new companies (more on this in 2025). With that said - my writing got a bit neglected. Through my travels (Tokyo, Iceland, Mexico, New York, Florida) I’ve been able to reflect and think a lot and I want to share some of these with you. As always, please reply as this is one of my favorite things to do because I get to have intimate conversations with the ~500 of...

Happy Sunday familia - This weekend was dope. But let's rewind before we get into the weekend. I had an off week. Just bad. I’m just getting back from 10 days in Paris and was overwhelmed with work upon returning. Every day last week I wanted to throw in the towel. We’ve all been there. So, this weekend, I made plans to get out of the house and do something fun. I made reservations for a show/restaurant /club (?) that I’ve been seeing online. And boy, was it something. From the valet to the...

Hey there - Whew. . . what a week. I don't have fancy strategies to share today - today is a rant. But I'm sharing because I want to normalize the season we're in. This week drained me. > I traveled to 3 cities > Had meetings from 8 am to 8 pm most days > Had to cancel 5 meetings > Got an average of 5 hours of sleep > Ate like trash > Never missed a workout > Had to do labor cuts within our company The grind that I’m in feels like 2021. 2021 was my first year as a full-time entrepreneur - and...
