In this intimate solo episode of Built for More, I open up about my journey through late 2024 and into 2025, sharing personal insights about balancing life as a father of two, entrepreneur, and individual. After taking a brief hiatus from the podcast, I discuss why stepping back was necessary for personal growth and reflection.

Key highlights from this episode:

- My experience of welcoming a second child and how it challenged my routines and self-care practices

- The importance of acknowledging when you're in a new season of life and making the hard choices necessary for growth

- Why "filling your cup" isn't just a cliche, but a vital practice for showing up as your best self

- How conversations with my friend Ryan helped me recognize patterns that weren't serving me

- The revelation that being present for your family doesn't mean sacrificing personal development

This episode is for anyone who's struggling to balance their personal needs with their responsibilities, feeling stuck in a pattern, or moving into a new season of life. I share honest reflections about the challenges of maintaining personal practices while adapting to life changes, and why making hard choices is essential for growth.

Join me for this raw and authentic conversation about personal growth, accountability, and the importance of acknowledging where you are to get where you want to go.
