Welcome back Navigators! I was at my son's fencing tournament. He scored. He looked up to find me in the stands. I was answering emails. That moment changed everything.

In this episode, I'm telling the story of how I built an 8-figure business and slowly disappeared from my own life. How I showed up for every vacation, every milestone, every moment — and was never actually there.

This isn't a story about work being bad. I love what I've built. This is about what happens when you optimize everything except your own presence. When success looks right from the outside but feels hollow on the inside.

I call it the Prosperity Gap — the distance between external achievement and internal alignment. And I was living in the middle of it.

You'll hear about:

→ The fencing tournament that broke something open

→ The beach vacation I never actually experienced

→ What my body was trying to tell me (and why I couldn't hear it)

→ How dysregulated leadership was costing me everything → The shift that finally brought me back

If you've ever felt like you're watching your life from the outside — like you're winning the game but losing yourself — this one's for you.

Thursday's Episode: The Tool Episode 4 gives you the CEO Embodiment Practice — five somatic exercises that take 2-5 minutes each. These are the exact practices I use when my heart is racing before a meeting, when I've lost my center, when I need to show up differently. Subscribe now so it's waiting for you.
