Last week, I had the opportunity to attend an Impact Meeting in Frankenmuth with fellow Michigan advisors — and, as always, these gatherings are so value-driven and inspiring. What stood out most this time was hearing how different individuals have grown and launched their practices — each story a reminder that perseverance and faith go hand in hand. I left feeling encouraged, not just by what I learned, but by the connections built with people who genuinely want to see one another succeed. The common message was clear: don’t quit. Keep doing the work that matters — because it’s work that truly changes lives. It’s generational work — helping families put things in place today that can impact their children and even their children’s children for the better. And on a personal note, it was nostalgic getting back to the Frankenmuth area — first time in nearly 25 years. I’ll definitely be bringing the family back with me sometime soon. I’m thankful for this amazing team, their support, and the shared commitment to serving others in a Christ-like manner. Feeling motivated and grateful to keep pushing forward in the work that makes a lasting difference. 🙏

If there’s one sign we’re doing fall right... it’s how often these two have fallen asleep in the car — this last time BEFORE we even get there 😴🍂 Over the past few weekends, we’ve made some great fall memories as a family — from running through corn mazes to downing cider slushies and fresh donuts. At Deep Roots, Aiden and I took on the corn maze while Mom and Asher hit the play area. And a couple weeks ago at Robinette’s, we caught Zeke the Wonder Dog doing tricks at their Spartan-themed pumpkin patch 🐾🎃 The boys are 6 and 4, and while it’s definitely a bit of chaos (plus sugar), it’s also something I look forward to every year. These are the moments I know we’ll talk about later — dusty clothes, sticky hands, passed-out naps in the backseat. As a dad, I’m soaking it all in. As a financial advisor, I’m reminded how the plans we make — with time, money, and priorities — are what open up space for these kinds of memories. 🙏🏽 #GratefulHeart #FallFamilyTraditions #PumpkinPatchSeason #FaithAndFinance #DadLife #CiderAndDonuts #CornMazeAdventures #ZekeTheWonderDog #DeepRootsFarm #RobinetteMoments #AsherAndAiden #GodIsGood What’s your favorite fall tradition — or your go-to spot this time of year? Always looking for new ideas! 🍁👇
