Putting your life in someone else’s hands never feels good.
There’s a lot of trust required.
Your security can get snatched from you in a second.
This happened right before my son Gabriel was born. I was pulled into the office of a start-up in Los Angeles and fired because I refused to do something that I knew was illegal.
That’s one of the reasons why I am a solopreneur in 2026. I want to be in full control of my own life.
No boss. No income ceiling. No one is forcing me to work long and unproductive hours in an environment that I don’t love.
Here’s the rub:
Some people quit their 9 to 5 and become slaves again to their own businesses.
Growth through hustle usually leads to more hustle.
That’s why in January, I’m helping the people in our Collective grow differently, not through strain and struggle but through creative connection and depth.
Growth that is calm, grounded, and life-giving.
Everything I am doing is pretty new for me, actually. I’ve been working away in the background, developing some very simple, clean, and powerful ways for growing with social media, AI, and relationships.
There are two parts to January:
Having a clear map of where you want to go in 2026, and creating the pathway that guarantees you get there.
Secondly, leveraging your business and your life through the formation of high-level relationships with like-minded folk, where you both help each other grow.
You only need 20 powerful referral-type relationships to transform your business.
For most people, these relationships are formed over a long period of time, and they typically happen by accident. That’s why their growth is slow.
I’m going to be using the models, systems, and the AI I’ve developed to help people form 20 of these relationships in January.
It’s going to be life-giving.
You don’t need more people in your life. You need more energy-giving, connected, and deeply appropriate relationships.
It makes growing fun.
I”m excited about this. It feels clean, it feels right, it feels easier.
More soon
