The 10X Marriage | ReWire 1881 Feb 13, 2026

Show notes

When I was a kid, my introduction to marriage was not great.

My mom and dad split early, a stepdad got introduced and my overall introduction to love and marriage was not what I thought it should be.

My parents beat my ass if I made mistakes.

I never had unconditional love.

In 2014, I was going through a phase in life, and all of my marraiges ended based on conditions.

Same for work.........I love you when you're making sales, but not when you're not doing your job.

My wife Amy taught me, no matter what, there were no conditions in this love.

There were no conditions that would break this love as long as she is her and I am me.

We have children together.

My kids come and I simply love my children because they exist.

When I started seeing this through my kids, I knew my wife loved me the way I love my kids.

I was able to become vulnerable and let my guard down with my wife.

My marriage has been nothing short of amazing.

The last 4 years of me not testing the conditions of this love have made this a 10X marriage.

I highly recommend.

The Undeniable Submitted Marriage | ReWire 1880 Feb 12, 2026

Show notes

I've been married 4 times, and divorced 3.

Each time, I never thought I would find love again.

The kind of love that is easy, peaceful, and supportive.

As I was entering into my relationship with Amy, I had already created an 8-page document detailing exactly who she is.

I know it sounds crazy, and a bit woo-woo, but I got tired of being in failed relationships.

Most of them were because I was involved.

All jokes aside, when Amy and I got married, we agreed to enter into a submitted marriage.

No, it's not being a cuck.......it's more about finding the right flow and lanes we can each exist in.

What is a submitted marriage?

It's where two people decide where they are going to solve any disagreements by going to the default of finding resolution.

In my marriage, if we have any disagreements around kids, Amy always has the last word.

At work, I'm the bread winner, but she has to default to what I want as it pertains to work.

It's that simple.

Find your lanes. Establish them.

Take the arguments out of making your way through disagreements that blow up most marriages.

You Must Accept Yourself First | ReWire 1879 Feb 11, 2026

Show notes

Most of my life I was not a happy person.

You couldn't tell on the surface, but deep down, I had fears, insecurities, and limiting beliefs that held me back.

As I grew in success, I still didn't feel like I was successful.

So, I started buying material things: cars, shoes, clothes, houses........but none of these things solved my confidence issues.

I was still the same motherfucker on the inside.

No matter what it looked like on the surface, I still lived with Ryan, the wounded Ryan.

Since that time, I went on a healing journey.

You can't fill a void inside of you with anything or anyone in this world.

Pour into yourself and accept yourself.

The moment you do this, you'll finally be in alignment with who you truly are.

Powering Through Limiting Beliefs | ReWire 1878 Feb 10, 2026

Show notes

Who said that you couldn't?

Remember the first time your shared your dream with someone and they told you it was impossible?

They shot you down, didn't they?

If you're still hung up on this, let me break something down for you about that person........

Are they successful in their own right?

Have they built a life you would live?

Built a business or done things most people would find amazing?

If the answer is no, fuck those people.

You are not the exception to the impossible.

The impossible becomes possible every single day:

The 4-minute mile used to be dreamed of until it became the norm

Rockets land themselves

We build robot cars that drive themselves

Don't let anyone tell you your dreams are impossible.

Adopt the mindset to work through anything to make the impossible possible.

And again, fuck those motherfuckers.

They don't know shit.

The Authentic Communication Formula | ReWire 1877 Feb 09, 2026

Show notes

I remember going to this meet up at this guy's house back in the day.

There were NFL players, actors, and D-list celebrities.

We were awaiting the arrival of a special guest and when he arrived, he got out of his car wearing a crisp white shirt, and navy blue suit.

His wife, attractive and donning a nice dress. Classy, elegant, and poised.

The main event of the evening was listening to him pitch us on this new and upcoming investment he promised would make us all very rich.

He was well-spoken, and very articulate, but he was missing something.........authentic communication.

Authentic communication is very simple, but here are the facts:

It's based on truth, clean intent, and grounded presence.

Truth without presence is harsh
Presence without truth is hollow
Truth without intent is reckless

Why is this important?

This helps you in leadership, sales, mediation, and personal relationships.

Authentic communication will allow you to connect better with your audience, deliver clearer messages with more intent, and keep yourself out of hot water with the authorities.

Be Happy You Made It | ReWire 1876 Feb 06, 2026

Show notes

There are things you've experienced in your life.

Things that held you down.

Broke your heart.

Destroyed your family.

Killed friendships.

Murdered business.

But guess what, you survived.

You have made it.

The only challenge is, you keep focusing on the things that no longer exist.

Were they a part of your fabric?

Yes.

But not today.

And tomorrow doesn't exist yet.

So, when you have a moment, take a second to reflect on what you have today.

Listen in silence for the truth.

Spend time telling people you love that you love them.

Lean in and do something for someone who can't help themselves.

You have today.

And today is a miracle because you're here.

Make the most of it.

Finding Compound Balance | ReWire 1875 Feb 05, 2026

Show notes

I have a nice little compound in the city, but I can hear traffic from where I live even though my house backs up to a park.

My whole life, I've searched for the calm to balance the chaos in my life.

A grassy field.

A Park where my kids could play.

Squirrels would play.

People laughing in the background.

And then, I made my way to Oklahoma in search of a ranch.

I didn't just find any ranch, I found a ranch that has become the representation of abundance in my life.

My compound efforts of working hard 7 days a week, making sacrifices, and staying consistent, even while under attack at various times mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, and financially..........

It's covered with trees, a huge river that runs through it, rolling little pastures, and multiple lakes stocked with fish.

Snakes abound.

Turtles.

Wild hogs, coyotes, and hundreds of head of cattle roaming the wide open spaces.

My compound efforts at work helped me to create a compound both in the city and country where I can find my grounding necessary to live the next version of my life successfully.

And you can to, but you have to start by creating something that produces a compound effect.

Powered Intention | ReWire 1894 Feb 04, 2026

Show notes

This episode is for the parents.

If you are not a parent or don't want to be, you're going to need this advice.

What we need in this world is more intentional parents.

Most parents are not.

They're raising their kids on iPads.

They don't know how to shake hands.

Communicate.

My kids will bring their kids to the house and I can see if their Dads are not teaching them what they need to, so I have to step up.

I do date nights with my wife so my kids can see how couples should be.

I make my kids work and they get jobs every summer and they have more money in the bank than most adults do.

We have daddy-kid day.

I take my kids to the ranch to get them to operate machinery and work shovels and brooms.

You gotta teach kids the importance of being intentional and it starts with parents. We can't allow our kids to be indoctrinated by schools, ipads and other entities. They don't give two shits about our kids.

If you want grandkids better than you, as a parent, make sure you're intentional.

It's Time to Take Personal Inventory | ReWire 1873 Feb 03, 2026

Show notes

A grocery store has to take inventory to stay stocked with good needed every week for consumers.

A restaurant has to take inventory to make sure they have plenty of food to feed their customers.

Retail stores like Best Buy and Walmart have to stay stocked for their consumers.

Amazon has to keep its inventory levels up for the products they offer online.

They're built around systems, processes, and efficiencies.

Some require people and others do not.

When was the last time you took personal inventory in your life?

Who you're surrounded by?

The type of work you do....do you enjoy the work you do?

What things you're requiring?.....do you like really nice things or are you okay living a simpler life?

Where is the essence of your focus going right now?

Do you have good friends around you?

Let's unpack and explore all of this......
