As I sit in my home office at six a.m. on a Sunday morning, doing my part on a biannual technology exercise, I looked around the room and said, “This place is a mess!” It’s not that I haven’t been conscious of the mess, but as it happens, life and all its sucky parts got in the way of organized chaos over the past...
Remember Your Why
I’ve always been a hard worker. I can’t say that I have played as hard or as much as I work, but I am working to put that into better balance. My wiring makes that a little difficult, but I try anyway. The past few years since the pandemic have been an intense ramp-up...

When Passion Meets Purpose
Recently, I signed up for a 12-week spiritually based finance course to sharpen my spending, savings, and investment habits. The Wealth with God course also includes charitable activities, as well as both financial and time commitments. All prerecorded during the...
