825 - I Create Rooms Where People Rise

This is one of the most raw, authentic, and transparent episodes I’ve recorded in quite some time. I originally had an outline for this episode, but after starting the recording several times, I decided to let go of the structure and simply speak from my heart. In this episode, I share some of the clarity that has been emerging through my daily logging and reflection practice. This process has been helping me see the systems, patterns, thoughts, behaviors, and inner narratives that are creating both the results I desire and the results I do not desire. I also talk openly about my client creation process and the powerful role that the Prosperous Coach method has played in my business over the years. At the same time, I share a vulnerable realization: without proper filters and discernment, my generosity can begin to function more like a nonprofit ministry than a sustainable business. From there, I move into reflections on family, empty nest, aging parents, and my own identity as a father. I share what came up for me this weekend as I dropped Matthew off at the airport for his month-long study abroad experience in Japan, and how his words, “I love you, Dad. I’ll see you in a month,” opened up an emotional response in me that I did not expect. I also share two new soul songs I created this weekend: “The Life I Saw Inside” “I Create Rooms Where People Rise” These songs helped me reconnect with the deeper truth of the work I do in the world. I create rooms where people rise. Rooms where people can speak honestly. Rooms where they can name what they really want. Rooms where they can receive honest reflection and support. Rooms where they can find the next right move and follow through on what they choose. This episode is about clarity, fatherhood, business, family, emotion, calling, and the rooms we need in order to become who we are here to become.
