The Ordered Life is a podcast about aligning your life, your money, and your decisions with what actually matters.

Hosted by Sean Gregory (Portfolio Manager), AJ Sanson (Associate Investment Advisor), and Anthony De Lazzari (Associate Investment Advisor) of Serviam Capital at iA Private Wealth Inc., the show explores how timeless principles, especially the virtues, can guide modern financial decisions and everyday life.

Drawing from Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, and lived experience working with families and business owners, each episode bridges philosophy and practical financial thinking. The conversation goes beyond markets and returns to address deeper questions: What is wealth for? What does it mean to live well? How do you make decisions with clarity, discipline, and purpose in a noisy world?

Across episodes, you’ll hear honest discussions on stewardship, discipline, risk, generosity, and long-term thinking. Whether navigating uncertainty, building wealth responsibly, or striving to become a better leader, parent, or professional, The Ordered Life offers a framework for living intentionally.

This is not about chasing outcomes. It is about ordering your life so that your resources, including your wealth, are directed toward the good.

  • How Fathers Can Bring Leadership from Work into the Home
    Jul 7 2026

    Many fathers work hard to lead, provide, and serve with excellence in their professional lives. But what happens when that same leadership does not fully carry into the home?

    In this episode of The Ordered Life, Sean, AJ, and Anthony reflect on fatherhood, virtue, and the importance of living with unity of life. Drawing from James Stenson’s article A Father’s Unity of Life, the conversation explores why men are called not only to produce and lead at work, but also to serve, guide, and be present within their families.

    The discussion moves beyond the idea of work life balance and asks a deeper question: are the virtues we practice in public also shaping the way we love and lead at home? From helping children with small daily needs to supporting a spouse with patience and intention, fatherhood becomes a place where leadership is tested, refined, and made real.

    For fathers, husbands, and men preparing for family life, this episode offers a thoughtful look at service, responsibility, Catholic fatherhood, and the ordinary ways a man can help build a more ordered home.

  • How the Internet Is Reshaping Family, Faith, and Moral Formation | Rolando Islas Part 3
    Jun 23 2026

    In this third part of the conversation with Dr. Rolando Islas, The Ordered Life explores how family, school, church, media, influencers, and algorithms shape who we become. Through the lens of relational ontology, Dr. Islas explains that identity is not formed in isolation. We become ourselves through the relationships, institutions, technologies, and moral influences that surround us.

    The discussion traces a major cultural shift. Where family, school, and church once served as primary sources of moral formation, the internet and social media now often become the first place young people turn for answers about sexuality, drugs, success, beauty, freedom, and self understanding. The result is a world where algorithms can reinforce desire, narrow identity, and turn people inward rather than helping them grow toward truth, responsibility, and meaningful relationships.

    The conversation also considers business ethics, moral power, Mother Teresa, employee trust, the limits of relativism, and the need to recover basic philosophical and ethical questions. For listeners seeking a more ordered life, this episode is a thoughtful reflection on identity, dignity, family, faith, technology, and the kind of relationships that help human beings flourish.

  • Can Business Be Good Without Maximizing Profit? | Rolando Islas Part 2
    Jun 9 2026

    What is business for if profit is not the highest goal?

    In this episode of The Ordered Life, Sean, AJ, and Anthony continue their conversation with Rolando Isals on purpose, AI, technology, and the moral responsibilities of business. Drawing from Aristotle, MacIntyre, and real examples from modern companies, Rolando argues that flourishing requires more than efficiency, growth, or financial success. It requires a clear understanding of what is worth pursuing.

    The conversation explores how business leaders can resist the pull of fast profits, how technology can shape the people who use it, and why AI should be treated as a tool for reflection rather than a replacement for human judgment. Rolando also challenges listeners to think carefully about greed, dignity, conscious markets, and the future their decisions are helping to build.

    For anyone trying to live and work with greater purpose, this episode is a thoughtful invitation to slow down, examine what success really means, and consider how business can serve people rather than reduce them to profit, efficiency, or data.
