One Hundred Posts of Faith Aug 20, 2025

Show notes

One hundred posts. A body of work stitched together with the same thread: that life is not about drifting, but about choosing. Choosing to serve. Choosing to believe. Choosing to stand when it would be easier to fold. Choosing to live in a way that honors those who no longer have the chance. I don’t pretend to have all the answers. But I have never stopped believing in us—in our capacity to rise above cynicism, to build something together, to live lives that overflow with purpose.

Help Me, Help You Aug 19, 2025

Show notes

Fairness in business isn’t a myth—it’s possible. But it requires partnership. Generosity only thrives when there’s space made for it, and respect has to travel both ways. Sometimes the very words we speak, or the posture we take, become the reason we don’t get the things we claim to want. Help Me, Help You is about ownership, generosity, and why keeping the door open to fairness matters more than we think.

The Most Punk Rock Thing of All Aug 18, 2025

Show notes

Anyone can sneer, criticize, or burn things down—but it takes real courage to believe. To believe in people. To believe in the possibility of unity. To believe that love and service are still worth fighting for. That’s the rebellion that matters now—the one strong enough to endure.

Oregon’s Great Reboot Aug 15, 2025

Show notes

Oregon was once a place where innovation and opportunity thrived. Today, we face a choice: drift into managed decline or step deliberately into a future we define for ourselves. That means reconnecting political leaders with the people who actually build our economy, restoring capital confidence, rebranding our state, experimenting with bold tax pilots, and holding government accountable with real transparency. The path forward is clear — but only if we have the courage to take it.

How You Win Matters Aug 14, 2025

Show notes

We often romanticize the idea of doing things the hard way when it comes to work ethic—grind, hustle, outwork everyone. But when it comes to ethics and values, we seem to forget. Fairness is hard. Transparency is hard. Choosing to believe in people is hard. But that’s also where the deepest strength lives. I’ve always believed that how you win matters. Not just for the outcome—but for your soul.

The Courage to See Each Other Aug 13, 2025

Show notes

A few weeks ago, I was hiking with my kids. The mountains were holding their breath, the air warm and still. As we passed others on the trail, I caught myself doing what I’ve always done—meeting eyes, offering a smile, sharing a greeting. That day, I used it as a lesson for my boys: notice the way people meet you, not to judge, but to understand the power of acknowledgment. Some share it openly, others keep it inside. But when someone brings joy to the world in that moment, it’s worth thanking them for it. Because these small gestures are the stitches that hold us together.

Small Steps Toward Strength Aug 04, 2025

Show notes

One night in the woods. Three packs. Two small boys learning to carry weight—and one father quietly hoping to teach them how. This wasn’t about the hike. It was about the shift. About raising sons to become useful men in a world that rarely asks them to be. And doing it, even if you have to do it alone.

We Took the Stairs Aug 01, 2025

Show notes

We didn’t build Instrument in perfect conditions—we built it in heat, in doubt, in the ashes of a fire. Every space we moved into felt like too much. And every time, it turned out not to be enough. This is the story of five flights of stairs, two teepees, and the belief that carried us through it all.

The Highs, the Lows, and the Space Between Jul 31, 2025

Show notes

Entrepreneurship doesn’t move in clean lines. The highs and lows can be separated by mere moments—a win in the morning, a gut punch by afternoon. But the goal isn’t to numb yourself to the ride. It’s to feel it all. To let the wins fill you and the losses teach you. Because when the journey is over, you won’t remember the score—you’ll remember that you lived it fully.

The Power of Attitude Jul 30, 2025

Show notes

Attitude isn’t just mindset—it’s the force that shapes your life. Not your circumstances, not your luck. Your attitude decides how you lead, how you love, and how you’re remembered. In this True North letter to my kids, I share what I’ve learned about carrying yourself with humility, grace, and strength—especially when it’s hardest.
