• How Shelagh and I met.
• Where I was in my life when I started my agency.
• Why the deal to sell the business I started fell through.

• Why it's okay (or even encouraged) to fail, pivot, and start over in your business.
• Understanding that the secret to success is to simplify.
• The importance of daily movement to your overall success.
• The small impact you can make that actually changes the world.
