The question has come up several times and I am sure many others are wondering, "Kyle, why did you make such a pivot in your career, especially with everything going on?"
It's simple really. Although this has been something I have been considering for a while, our son, Walker, has inspired me to live my best life. He as overcome so much and does it with the biggest grin! Walker has a long road ahead as we have seen/consulted with a total of 4 different hospitals and he has already had 5 surgeries.
What does Walker's journey have to do with me joining the Thrivent team? You see, none of this was expected. We had no indications that Walker would be in the NICU for nearly 8 months, nor did we know he would need so many surgeries and specialists. However several years ago, we were able to sit down with our Thrivent adviser and put a plan together assuring that our foundation would be strong if or when life decided to throw us a curveball. And boy did it ever!
Now, I look forward to paying it forward and helping many others build a strong foundation and create their plans, and I could not be more thrilled to do this through Thrivent!
