You don’t need to move faster.
You need to reduce unnecessary risk.

When your decision affects income, reputation, or stability,
pause with structure before you act.

  • In Favour of Giving Things Up (In Business)

    Renunciation in personal life involves mentally letting go of unhealthy habits, attachments, and excessive desires to foster inner peace and spiritual growth. Practices include: Renunciation in business however, isn’t addressed quite as often. I’m not talking about sacrifice… or deprivation…or moral purity. I am talking about renunciation as the deliberate act of letting something go so that…

  • On Strategy, Stories & What Actually Lives Inside a Plan

    I didn’t walk into the Fundable & Findable book club expecting much. Don’t get me wrong… after following Kevin for some time and eventually buying his book, I knew the discussion would be rich; but I still assumed it would be one of those large, impersonal webinars where your camera stays off, your mic stays…

  • What are the 3 Faces of Courage in Business?

    Courage is one of the four cardinal virtues in Stoicism – alongside wisdom, justice, and temperance. These virtues form the backbone of Stoic ethics, guiding us toward a life rooted in reason, integrity, and alignment. The Stoics describe courage as the ability to face fear, adversity, and hardship not with bravado, but with resilient clarity.…

  • Humility Isn’t Bad. The Meaning We Inherited Is.

    Every day, I read the chapter in Proverbs that corresponds with the date. If there are only 30 days in the month, I read both chapters 30 and 31 on the last day. It’s a discipline Steven K. Scott learned from Gary Smalley, and the logic is simple: if wisdom is available, why wouldn’t you…

  • How to Create like an Artist and Think like an Entrepreneur

    There’s a tension that many artists carry: the belief that they must choose, between being the artist, drifting in the realm of intuition, inspiration, and muse… or the entrepreneur, anchored in metrics, markets, and making money. But that divide was manufactured. And in today’s world, it’s no longer just unhelpful – it’s unsustainable. The Starving…

  • Playing the Long Game while the Bills Keep Coming

    There’s a stretch between vision and manifestation, that tests even the most grounded leader. It’s the part no one posts about — the space between faith and evidence. It’s not popular. No one wants to openly admit it…but the tension is real and it’s the space that panic sits, just waiting to flare into total…

  • What to do when we Feel Estranged from Ourselves

    There are days when you can’t quite locate you. Not the professional who knows what to say in a meeting, or the facilitator who helps others find alignment — but the person beneath all of that. The part of you that remembers what it feels like to be connected, grounded, whole. And when that part…

  • When the Flow Feels Slow

    There are seasons in business that test what you actually believe about alignment. When everything’s moving — when invoices clear, projects feel alive, and conversations spark next steps — it’s easy to believe you’re aligned and in flow. But when things quieten down, when payments delay, when you find yourself checking balances instead of dreaming…

  • The Psychology of Misjudgment and its Effect on Smart Leaders

    Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett’s long-time partner, once gave a legendary talk called The Psychology of Human Misjudgment. His central point?It’s not lack of intelligence that ruins decisions. It’s the predictable ways our minds misfire. 1. Incentives Rule the Game Munger said, “Never, ever think about something else when you should be thinking about incentives.” He…

  • How to Reclaim your Muchness

    You used to be much muchier. You’ve lost your muchness. I came across this quote recently where the person posting said that every time she feels the need to apologize for being too much, she remembers that this is what the Mad Hatter told Alice. I naturally assumed it belonged to Lewis Carroll’s 19th-century Alice’s…
