Unfortunately, we lost my uncle this week due to him having cardiac and pulmonary arrest on Sunday. I wrote this today. "Right before we took my uncle Kevin off life support yesterday afternoon, they took him on a "hero's walk" since he was donating his liver and kidneys. It was a beautiful ceremony as the chaplain led the way, raising a beautifully crafted wooden cross and quoting Psalm 23. At least 20 doctors and nurses stood on both sides of the hallway as we passed. We then took time to say our individual goodbyes. I told Kevin it wasn't the end for him, but only the beginning, and that God would be at the gates of heaven to welcome him home. As we waited peacefully, a nurse named Micah Hare from Legacy of Hope encouraged us with Scripture and reminders to remember Kevin's life. Tears were inevitably shed as the doctor came in about half an hour later to tell us Kevin had passed peacefully. But we were all grateful that he did not struggle and that he was finally at rest. Death is a strange thing. We know it's coming and eternity awaits, but we often don't want to embrace its reality until it actually happens to someone we love. But what we do with these occurrences is what's most important. The past few days, I've been listening to Switchfoot's new album, Forever Now. As he often does, lead singer Jon Foreman explores death, but also a yearning to live well, and that's no different on this record. I'm more encouraged to not take my life and those around me for granted. We are not promised tomorrow. Today is the most important day of our lives. So let's make it a beautiful life. https://youtu.be/qv_txd1RTrw?si=_bOua20B3j8HKpqA

So I've written an ad copy storytelling style) for a free live workshop I'm hosting this Thursday and I'd love your brutal honest feedback before I put money behind it. Here's what I specifically want to know: 1. Is it clear who this is for? 2. Is the problem I'm addressing coming through? 3. Is this a topic that would genuinely interest coaches? Thank you all in advance🙌 This is the ad: Why Another Business Strategy Won't Get You More Clients She called me on a Thursday afternoon. Impatient. Excited. Buzzing with five new ideas. A second community. A new offer. A different niche. Start again somewhere else. I let her finish. Then I had to be honest. Because four months earlier, my client Q had 4 members in her Skool group. Stuck at that number for months. Back then we made a plan. She followed it. Two weeks later -> 80 members. A month after that ->120 members Then she disappeared. No posts. No replies. I reached out. No response. Weeks of silence. When she finally came back she said something I haven't forgotten: "Something was holding me back from even opening your message." Not busy. Not life getting in the way. Something stopping her from even looking at it. That's not a strategy problem. So we sat down together. Not to fix her strategy. Her strategy was fine. But to rewire what was actually happening under the surface. Today Q posts every single day. She shows up. She creates content. She presents in a way she never was before. And continues to grow her community. Not because she found a better system. But because we addressed the thing the system couldn't touch. The strategy is rarely the problem. It's the belief underneath that decides whether you follow it or not. This Thursday at 7 pm CET I'm hosting a free live workshop inside my Skool community. It's called: How to Scale Your Coaching Business to the Next Level Without Another Business Blueprint Even If You've Been Stuck in the Same Place for Years. I'm going to show you exactly where these patterns come from, why another system won't fix them, and what actually does.

I want to cut off my left thumb right now. It's been trembling and pounding against the space bar for five minutes. Heck, I might just get rid of my whole hand. For the last several years, I have developed extreme tremors all throughout my body, and they just seem to keep getting worse. They come when I least expect. My wife and I will be sitting on the couch or praying together with hands grasped, and she can feel it all. She even filmed it once, and I was shocked at how uncontrollable it seemed. Last night, I laid down and was shaking everywhere imaginable. It's terrifying sometimes. I literally spend eight to ten hours a day on my laptop, and I'm now having to take breaks from typing several times an hour. When I play guitar, my fingers have trouble accurately picking the strings at times, and I literally put my hands in my pocket after I'm done, so that no one sees how bad the tremors are. I know I've shared a lot of my health issues on here, and maybe that's a LinkedIn faux pas. But I know I'm not alone out there, and I want you to know the same. Your support means the world to me, and that plus the love of my Savior, can get me through anything.
