Today I want to share something simple but life-altering:
Surround yourself with people smarter than you.
From a young age, my mom taught me that your brain needs food just like your body — and that food is wisdom. Books, mentors, experiences, hard conversations… that’s how you grow.
But the biggest shift didn’t come from what she taught me.
It came from what she showed me.
I watched her apply her own advice — pouring into her personal growth, learning new skills, and aligning herself with people who stretched her thinking. Over the years, I saw how that quiet discipline transformed our family.
She didn’t just build a better life.
She modeled it.
Fast forward to today:
I’m building businesses.
Designing investment strategies.
Providing for my family.
And planting seeds for the next generation.
Not because I had all the answers…
But because I learned the value of proximity, humility, and hunger.
👣 This is the legacy I’m committed to continuing.
To help others rise by helping them think better, move wiser, and surround themselves with greatness.
We don’t rise alone.
We rise together.
