Happy Sunday, Tribe and wishing everyone abundance and good mojo for the coming week! Welcome to our Polish brother @Marcin Czachorski and NZ brother @Jerry Beale and all the rest of the good folks who joined the tribe this week. Here's what's going on to catch you up to speed and a nudge to the rest of the community to get involved in this month's challenge to level up your relationships and resiliency. We are running monthly challenges following the Archetypes sequence that shows up in both the Tribe Triangle culture map and the Hero's Journey map of life. The Sovereign launches the journey with vision (we did that last month) followed by Lover that generates belonging with ourselves (which is resiliency) and belonging with others (which is relationships). Next month is Warrior house where we push fitness, discipline and boundaries followed by Magician which is mastery, efficiency and structure. These challenges involve a daily commitment to explore and establish a new behavior to improve our life and the impact our lives in the world. We post daily for accountability and that is important. We will always do more for the honor to others than we will do for ourselves. That consistency is challenging but it is the only way to establish new life practices. There are many times in the last two months that I would have missed my practice but I did it for the sake of accountability and now have a more fulfilling and successful life. I plan on continuing that journey of setting goals and implementing those rituals into my life. We have a Sunday check in at 4pm PST and the link is on the calendar here. No call this Sunday as folks are watching the super bowl but will commence next Sunday. To the new folks, take some time to explore the classroom section of this app to find a bunch of workshops and webinars to level up your personal and professional development. Keep a look out this coming week for an invite to an open Wolf Tribe program out at the wolf sanctuary in March. I also plan on finishing my Iron John webinar that will be in the classroom section of this app.

thought I’d share my winter list and my 2026 motto card. I have these strategically placed in my life to remind me of what my perfect day is during Q1 (having learned in 2025 that the Perfect Day changes with the seasons and when life shows up unexpectedly, I’ve revamped mine to reflect not only what is aspirational but also achievable so that I can focus on the habit forming little wins and momentum building in the rest season) As you can see, a majority of my winter is spent in resiliency and relationships - as those take the biggest hit when “war season” arrives. Been working diligently on my hiring process and cracking the labor code… have a mock interview scheduled today with a 26 year old family friend to start testing out my new interviewing process and expectations agreement. Also, about 90 pages from wrapping up my second book of the winter…. NO PLAYING SMALL

I missed the check in yesterday. I did ok on limiting social media; I watched a few shorts. Here's the question I asked students. Some students didn't have an answer. It was fun to hear wha some did share: relationships, money, God, a smile.

Hey all. So I’m starting a new monthly email format for my existing clients and current email list (consisting of fellow trades, design professionals and similar folks) next week. I first came up with the concept for this email last year but due to unexpected shifting priorities I had to put it on hold (which was fine as I have a strong word of mouth presence to begin with). After a year of the concept percolating, I’m excited to finally push forward with it! I’m mentioning it here to see if any are interested in being added to the list and also add one more layer of accountability for myself to see this through on the monthly basis I’m intending to release them. I know all too well that when my war season hits, too much tends to fall off with the chaos that season of life tends to contain so just knowing that I stated this here could help sway this intention from getting sidetracked or derailed. If you’d like to be added please either respond with your email or fee free to email me directly: [email protected] I will welcome any and all feedback, positive or otherwise, from the group! (Either directly or during any group discussions I find myself in with everyone) Thanks in advance!

Day job took most of my attention. I did some housekeeping & taking a step back / recommit. Stupid little things, but it needed to be done - consolidate my to-do lists that accumulated over the past few weeks / throw out what's no longer important, order a few things I'm running short on.
