You don’t need to be in combat to live with a warrior mindset. You just need something worth fighting for. The battlefield has changed.

It’s about clarity, purpose, and discipline […]
I wear a lot of hats, ambassador, speaker, coach, husband, dad. On paper, it looks like a juggling act. In real life, it feels like a battlefield of competing priorities.
