Yesterday I turned 45… and I decided to get real about what this past year did to me — and what it built in me.

This episode is raw, unscripted, and fully recorded on a trampoline (yes, really).
Because when you're resetting your nervous system and your life... you might as well go all in.

If you're a man over 40 (or heading there), this is for you.
We’re not done. We’re just getting started.

What if the key to getting more in life… is being grateful for what we already have?

I didn’t expect to get hit with this realization today, but as I was reading John 5 & 6, something clicked.

• Jesus asked Philip how they’d feed 5,000 people—even though he already knew the answer.
• He told everyone to sit down before they even had food—was that faith or just a crazy move?
• He gave thanks before multiplying the fish and bread—what if we’re missing out because we aren’t grateful first?
• And then—he gathered the leftovers. Even in abundance, nothing was wasted.

It made me ask myself: Where have I taken things for granted? What have I wasted because I thought it would always be there?

I don’t have all the answers, but I know this: we can’t multiply what we aren’t grateful for.

So here’s the challenge:
➡ What’s one thing you can start showing gratitude for today?
➡ How would your life change if you responded instead of reacted?

I’m figuring this out in real-time, and if this hits home for you too, let’s explore it together.
