We're not who we used to be...

Good morning!

If you’ve been subscribed here for a while, this isn’t your first time hearing from me.

Maybe you found one of my articles on dating. Maybe you were deep in a Google search for modern chivalry and romance, or exploring what it means to build meaningful relationships in a world that often feels distracted.

Either way, I want to say this:

Thank you for being here. Even through the quiet. Even while I’ve been evolving.

You see…this list, this audience, this connection between us, it started from a place of real meaning. It started with a question I’ve been exploring for years: What does it mean to live with confidence, purpose, and presence in today’s world?

That journey used to focus mostly on romantic relationships. Now, it’s grown into something even deeper.

Because over the past few years, I’ve seen something that most of the world still tries to ignore:

The way we show up in love…is connected to the way we lead.

The way we lead ourselves…is reflected in the way we communicate.

And the way we communicate…is how we shape the legacy we leave behind.

So yes, I still write about confidence. Yes, I still care deeply about relationships. But I’m also writing now for people who want to build something lasting.

A life with meaning. With power. With grace.

Whether that’s in leadership, love, or legacy. (or all three)

And if you’re still with me on this path, I think you’ll get more value than ever in what’s coming next.

In a couple days, I’m going to send you something short and powerful about confidence, something that might shift how you think about your own presence forever.

Until then…thank you for growing with me.
