Happy New Year Visionaries!

I just wrapped a New Year’s DJ set in the county, spinning tunes for families past midnight.

It beat the chaos of those old club gigs. There’s nothing like watching whole families dance together—shoutout to that 5-year-old party animal who outlasted everyone, building memories that'll last way longer than any hangover.

And now? It’s time to gear up for an exciting year. Together, we’re not just surviving—we’re thriving, no matter what happens outside our control.

• The World's Gone Crazy: While everyone else is losing their minds over things they can't control, we’ll be busy building

The Wake-Up Call That Changed Everything

Picture this: 12 years ago, I emerged from a drug fog that would've made Terence McKenna blush.

I was 33 with the development of a 16-year-old kid.

Critical thinking? Shot. Emotional intelligence? Non-existent. Entrepreneur foundation? Empty as my bank account.

But here's where it gets good.

I attacked personal development like a starving man at a feast.

Every area of my life needed rebuilding from scratch. This wasn't self-improvement - it was self-resurrection. I devoured everything I could find about personal growth, business development, and community building.

The restaurant industry had me trapped in its dead-end maze.

So I did what any sane person would do - I jumped ship and dove headfirst into digital marketing. Started from zero. Built my way up. Helped hundreds of entrepreneurs create their online presence.

But something was still missing.

Three years ago, I made the craziest bet of my life - stepping into the spotlight with zero audience. Just a burning conviction that three things could transform lives: holistic living, community building, and innovative business strategy.

While others were talking about AI, I was mastering it. While they worried about the future, I was building it.

The Results Speak Louder Than Words

Today, I look up to see ten acres of multigenerational homesteading where my 6-year-old daughter runs free and wild. A thriving mutual aid group that's stronger than any government safety net. An email list that exploded from 36 friends to 1,600 warriors ready for change.

And my wife? She's crushing it with her own business, proof that these strategies work for more than just tech bros and marketing gurus.

Your Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It)

2025 is gonna be wild. But while others are panicking about things they can't control, you'll be too busy building your empire to notice.

You'll be:

• Strengthening local communities while others hide behind screens.
• Creating unstoppable value while others complain about the economy.
• Living holistically while others pop pills to cope.
