A powerful way to thrive and turn dreams into a reality. — I went golfing with my dad a while back. Dad plays almost every week. I’ve played once, and it was five years ago. During our time together, I spent most of my time in the rough (that’s a fancy golf term for weeds). I had these epic golf swings hitting…

A little moment that spiced up my life in more than one way. — You know that feeling you get when you discover something for the very first time? You tell everyone you know? Perhaps you’re so excited you inform the stranger in line behind you at the grocery store? I’ve had one of those moments. Let me tell you about it. 😉 A little story… I’m…

What are Geodes, you ask? They appear to be boring rocks but contain beautiful crystals inside. It’s pretty cool, actually. I believe the kit comes with some type of hammer to…

I had one of those “teaching” moments recently. Maybe this will resonate with you as it did me. When it comes to my kids, I’ve noticed that…

I learned more about UX in this process than my 8-month UX boot camp. — One of my goals this year is to build deeper relationships with each of my daughters. To achieve this, I set out to go on a daddy-daughter date with each of them. I have four. That’s right. Four. It’s one of the most rewarding goals I’ve had and it’s also…
