My mom was diagnosed with leukemia in 2004 and was given five years to live.
That was 21 years ago.

When I was 14 I asked her if she ever got scared about anything, she said:

“My worst fear has already come true: I have cancer.
I’m not going to let small things scare me anymore.”

That sentence has echoed in my mind for years.
Whenever I’ve faced challenges, uncertainty, or fear of failure, her words remind me that courage isn’t the absence of fear. It’s perspective.

Today, her oncologist said she’s officially 🌟 NED: No Evidence of Disease 🌟 
After 21 years, she beat the odds.

This isn’t just about surviving cancer.
It’s about refusing to live in fear.

Here’s to every person fighting something hard right now: keep going.
You never know how long your miracle has been in the making.

Head of Growth | Building Scalable Revenue Systems Through Paid Media & Data

I wasn’t a cool operator.
I wasn’t airborne.
I didn’t have some “sexy” job.

I was a 91B mechanic.
I fixed Humvees.

But I raised my hand.
When asked what I would do to become an American citizen, I said I would serve.

There are many who went before, during, and after me who gave more than we can ever imagine.

Today isn’t about rank or job titles.
It’s about the choice to serve.

Happy Veterans Day to my brothers and sisters out there.
And thank you to my wife and daughter, who stood by me through it all.

This has been one of the hardest years of my life.
Legal stress, medical scares, immigration delays, and losing two grandparents — one on Thanksgiving day — all landed at once.

But if this year taught me anything, it’s that gratitude is not pretending everything is fine.
Gratitude is choosing what deserves your focus so you can keep moving forward.
It is a discipline, not a mood.

And when I zoom out, there is a lot worth choosing.

My daughter is having an incredible year in elite cheer and lit up the stage in Matilda.
My wife is healthy after a difficult season.
My mother was cleared of leukemia.
My family is still standing, still laughing, and still building something together.

I’m thankful for that.
And I’m thankful for the people I get to work alongside every day.
This year brought pressure in ways most people will never see, but my team showed up with ownership, resilience, and trust. They made the hard days easier, and the good days possible.

As leaders, we don’t always get to choose the weight we carry.
But we do choose where we place our attention, and how we show up for the people who count on us.

This year clarified what matters.
Presence is leadership.
Focus is leadership.
Gratitude is leadership.

Wishing you all a meaningful Thanksgiving.

From the series: My 11-year-old out-hustles me.

She got up at 6 a.m. on a Saturday (which is a miracle on its own), performed at a showcase, came home, and still spent nearly two hours practicing her back handspring.

I wanted to relax. But how could I, watching her put in extra hours chasing something she loves?

Kids have a way of teaching us unexpected lessons.
I’m thankful to be learning from mine.

Some leaders respond to problems with curiosity.
Others respond with blame.

The difference shows up fast.

A high performing team does not need someone looking over their shoulder. They need someone who builds confidence, gives direction, and removes fear so people can do their best work.

Every team hits bad days. Every campaign swings.
What matters is how leaders respond in those moments.

Real leadership is not asking “who dropped the ball.”
Real leadership is asking “how can I empower you to solve this fast and not repeat it.”

People stay loyal to the leaders who trust them.
And they burn out under the ones who do not.

Leadership is a choice. Every day.

Do you know a freelance graphic designer who understands paid social?
If you have ever said “let’s move the text two pixels to the left, trust me,” we already love you.

Radiant needs someone who can:
• Stop thumbs
• Turn ideas into scroll proof ads
• Make Meta say “fine, I’ll deliver this one”
• Create visuals that work harder than caffeine on a Monday

We are a fun team. The kind of fun where we celebrate a drop in CPA like it’s a national holiday and bond over the shared confusion of why TikTok approves ads it absolutely should not approve.

If you are a designer who gets performance creative or you know one, tag them or message me. Referrals, cousins, and undercover creative geniuses are all welcome.

And for the record, the terrible image in this post is not a reflection of the talented people who design for us today. It is a reflection of my own design skills, which peak somewhere between “Microsoft Paint enthusiast” and “my daughter could do better.”

"We will not be intimidated."

This is Perplexity's response to Amazon's "corporate bullying." 

In short, Amazon wants to close off their platform to external agents so they can control what happens on their turf. 

Clearly this makes good business sense, but it also sucks for anyone who would like to have more control over their own agents. 

Check out the video to see why it all matters.

My grandfather, William (Bill) Larkin Jr., served in the Army's Company H as a machine gunner in WWII, which amazingly is the exact company his father, also William Larkin, served in during WWI.

While he hardly ever spoke of the war, he served valiantly and received many honors. The oak leaf cluster, silver star, and two bronze stars for acts of heroism and courage under fire.

On a rare occasion when he spoke about the war, he described one encounter with enemy forces. A tank had come upon them catching his company off guard. An enemy soldier shot at Bill and barely missed him. In pure anger at almost being shot, he took his helmet off and threw it at the shooter, knocking him off balance. They returned fire and were able to overcome the tank.

Bill was only one of a handful of men that survived from his group that consisted of over 100 men. He returned from war to marry his sweetheart, Helen Angell.

I'm grateful for my grandfather's example and proud of his service.

Also grateful for the many men and women, past and present, who have served our great country. 

May those who paid the ultimate price, along with their families, be honored and remembered for their sacrifices.

How are individuals team members saving hours a day, but teams are seeing very little impact to the bottom line?

Atlassian calls this the “Collaboration Problem.”

Creative name, right? 😆
