There are some things I’m willing to miss for work.

This isn’t one of them. 🏀 Does work ever get in the way of the moments that matter most? If so…

We should talk.

More than $1.77 billion was paid directly to college athletes in the first year of revenue sharing. That number is staggering, but the bigger story is what comes with it.

For today’s student-athletes, earning money is no longer just a possibility. For many, it’s becoming part of the college experience. And with that opportunity comes a need for financial education, planning and good decision-making much earlier in life.

How do you manage it? How much should you save? What about taxes? Investing? Protecting yourself financially? And how do you make sure money that may only last a few years creates opportunities that last much longer?

The landscape has changed. The financial education surrounding it needs to change with it.



The CSC said more than $1.975 billion in direct payments from schools to athletes were recorded by its College Athletes Payment System.

You might have a skill you’ve never actually thought of as a skill.

And it might be more valuable than you think. This one is for a very specific kind of person. 👀 Are you one of them?

If so,

They say if you work together long enough you start to dress alike or something like that. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Apparently today is National Black Dog Day. 🖤🐾

So it only seemed right that my best friend make an appearance in the latest We Should Talk.

Although, if you ask Peytin, I’m pretty sure this entire series has been about her.

This one features her, a 20-step commute, and a question worth asking yourself.

Take 30 seconds and watch.

Talking Tuesday.

This one might make you think about your career a little differently. At least, I hope it does. Take 30 seconds. Watch it. Then ask yourself the question at the end.

I’m starting something new. No big introduction. No explanation. Just watch the first one. 👀

And if it hits a little too close to home…
We should talk. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Australia is taking the “Jock Tax” to a whole new level. 57% of Matthew Stafford’s paycheck this week will go to state, federal and international taxes.

Felt some tightness in my knee after rep 8. Instead of forcing it, I stopped, stretched, worked on mobility, and came back to finish pain-free.

Building wealth works the same way.

The goal isn’t to blindly push through every obstacle. The goal is to recognize when something needs adjustment, make the correction, and keep moving forward.

Discipline isn’t just knowing when to press harder. It’s knowing when to pivot.

Growth usually starts with being stretched.

In the gym.
In business.
In leadership.
In life.

Comfort rarely builds strength.
