Anniversary Week: When All Systems Align

6min Read | Watch | Listen

Hey there, builders and seekers,

You know those weeks when everything just clicks?

This week, while I'm getting ready to whisk my lady away to a bubble dome in the woods to Leavenworth for our anniversary, everything else seems to be falling into place too.

Major interviews locked down, the perfect VA finally found, ChatGPT just dropped a freedom bomb that's gonna reshape everything, and I'm knee-deep in a passion project that's got me fired up.

It's like watching all your systems come online at once.

Why You Should Give All the Cares:

• Relationship Systems: How intentional downtime creates space for everything else to flourish

• Business Momentum: Landing dream interviews and finding your perfect team match

• Tech Freedom Revolution: ChatGPT's open source move just changed the entire game

Anniversary Weekend: Investment in What Matters Most

So get this: A transparent bubble dome tucked away in the Washington wilderness.

Then, two days of hiking, spa time, cold plunges, and zero distractions from the outside world.

Just me and my wife, reconnecting and recharging.

But listen, this isn't just vacation time.

We're scouting this spot for our next Airbnb investment.

Cool experiences are what people with money will pay for, and we're positioning ourselves to create those memorable moments for others while building wealth.

It's holistic business thinking in action.

The kid gets quality time with grandparents on the multigenerational farm, we get essential couple time to do a marriage checkup, and we're simultaneously researching our next business move.

Systems thinking at its finest.

Landing the Dream Interviews: Beyond The Matrix Gets Heavyweight Guests

A couple weeks ago, I made a list.

Big names who've influenced my thinking, people I wanted to interview for Beyond The Matrix (starting next month) but wasn't sure I had the guts to reach out to.

Well, courage paid off big time.

First I landed Mark Passio - the guy who first taught me about natural law and critical thinking.

Now I just confirmed John Bush from Live Free Academy.

This dude is THE mastermind behind exit and build strategies - helping people leave the cities and build resilient communities in rural areas.

Perfect fit for the mutual aid and community building content we're developing.

But wait, there's more coming:

• Tom Malterre on nutritional health

• Tyson Adams on cults and groupthink (interviewing him today)

• Minta Allred on gratitude practice

• Kyle Koch, Matao, Jim, Craig and Matt on other cutting-edge topics

7 people have already signed up for Beyond The Matrix, and with these heavyweight conversations, this program is about to become something truly special.

Hop on a 15min temp check to see if you qualify.

Found My Perfect VA: The Missing Piece

After searching forever, I finally found her.

A virtual assistant who complements my strengths perfectly.

I'm great at construction and building systems.

She's brilliant at brand strategy and business optimization.

Used ChatGPT to Match up my human design for what I’m missing and tossed it in a FB group and 3hrs later BOOM!

Right now she's examining every asset I've built, every project I'm working on, and mapping out the strategic direction to maximize my construction strengths.

No more echo chamber thinking.

Having a team member who sees what I can't see is already paying dividends.

Passion Project Alert: SoundPath Freedom Festival

Speaking of team collaboration, I just took on a passion project that's got me energized.

SoundPath - a hybrid freedom music festival happening Labor Day weekend in Philadelphia.

Four days of music, minds, and natural law principles.

The in person day will be at an actual family fun center. How rad is that?

They needed AI marketing help, so I'm donating my time and expertise.

We just finished their Entrepreneur's Compass, giving them a living document for content creation.

With only three weeks left, we're hitting the gas hard.

These folks are bringing together some incredible minds, all united around natural law as their foundation.

Check them out and give them a follow - they're creating something worth supporting.

Tech Corner: ChatGPT Just Went Nuclear (In the Best Way)

Hold onto your keyboards, because ChatGPT just dropped two open source models that are about to change everything.

One big, one small.

Think of it as "better than ChatGPT-o4" that can run on your high-end computer or phone.

No cloud. No subscriptions. No data leaving your device.

Your conversations stay private, stored locally on your hardware.

This is massive for freedom preservation.

Instead of AI being controlled by elites with social credit score switches, we now have the tools to run our own AI locally.

Want to try it? Check out:

• The deets: https://gpt-oss.com/

• Download: https://github.com/openai/gpt-oss

• Local setup: https://lmstudio.ai

They basically scorched earth their competition by releasing this for free.

Smart move that benefits all of us who value privacy and independence.

And speaking of ChatGPT news - there's a live stream happening right after this newsletter drops.

My money's on ChatGPT-5 making its debut.
