Effectiveness Over Ego Jun 10, 2025

Show notes

In leadership—and in life—you can either be right, or you can be effective. Rarely are you both at the same time. This letter to my kids is about choosing long-term impact over short-term validation, learning to lead without ego, and understanding that wisdom often looks like restraint. Especially in moments of tension, clarity, and grace will take you further than being “right” ever could.

Right Where I Belong Jun 06, 2025

Show notes

This weekend, I loaded up the RV, grabbed my boys, and headed out to Oregon Raceway Park for 15 hours of wheel-to-wheel racing with three of my closest friends. It’s not just about the race—it’s about doing something hard, new, and meaningful together. This episode is a love letter to friendship, focus, fatherhood, and finding yourself exactly where you belong.

Why I Write Jun 05, 2025

Show notes

I started writing to leave something lasting for my kids. What I didn’t expect was how much it would give back—clarity, connection, and a surprising kind of therapy. But the real reason I write? To give away everything I know… so I can make space for reinvention.

How You Do It Is Everything Jun 04, 2025

Show notes

In the early 2000s, creative agencies often celebrated talent over character. But when I founded Instrument, I knew we had to do it differently. Our standard was simple: Do great work. Be great to work with. Do both with a positive attitude. That one line shaped our culture, our leadership, and our legacy. Because at the end of the day—how you do it is everything.

The Best Is Yet to Come Jun 03, 2025

Show notes

This past year, I stepped away from everything I thought defined me—and discovered someone I like even more. Stillness didn’t mean the end of ambition. It became the space where new purpose emerged. If you believe your best days are ahead, you start living like it. That’s what I’m doing.

The Right Way to Win Jun 02, 2025

Show notes

When you make it your mission to help others succeed—not just yourself—you create something lasting. The best kind of win is the kind you share. That’s how you build trust, attract opportunity, and shape a life that feels meaningful beyond the scoreboard.

The Gift of Starting Over May 30, 2025

Show notes

At 50, I’m not chasing comfort—I’m chasing complexity. This reflection is about what it means to be a beginner again later in life, why process matters more than results, and how starting over can be the most alive you’ll ever feel.

The Innovation Paradox May 29, 2025

Show notes

True innovation demands holding two opposing truths: your work must improve, and it’s already worth sharing. This is the innovation paradox. Most leaders lean toward either vision or execution—but enduring success requires both. Mastering that tension is what separates fleeting momentum from lasting impact.

The Screenless Future May 28, 2025

Show notes

We’ve spent two decades staring into glass rectangles. But what if the future of technology isn’t something we look at—but something we live with? As AI grows ambient and interfaces vanish, we’re not just changing tools—we’re redefining what it means to be human in a machine-aware world.

The Road Worth Taking May 27, 2025

Show notes

There will come a time when you’ll face a choice: follow the well-worn path, or take the harder one that aligns with your convictions. I hope you choose the latter. Because in the end, it’s not ease that defines your life—it’s integrity. That road is harder. But it’s worth it.
