Helping healthcare professionals to build wealth passively through multifamily real estate investing | CEO at Pheenyx Capital Investment | Join our community of investors

I did everything right. I went to school, became a doctor, and built what I thought was the ultimate career.

But after years in the ER, something clicked:

I was stuck in a system where no matter how much I earned, my time was never mine.

Like so many high-income professionals, I was:
❌ Trading my time for money, shift after shift.
❌ Missing moments with family, holidays, and weekends.
❌ Building a career—but not building wealth.

So, I made a change.

I discovered real estate investing and realized that my paycheck didn’t have to be my only source of income. I could make my money work for me.

The Results Have Been Transformative

→ Built and manage a $120.5M+ real estate portfolio
→ Helped a significant number of investors create passive income
→ Founded Pheenyx Capital Investment to guide professionals toward financial freedom
→ Teaching busy professionals how to invest wisely—without more work

How I Can Help You

If you’re a healthcare professional looking to:
Build passive income through real estate without the stress of managing properties
Gain financial freedom without working more hours
Learn how to create generational wealth while keeping your career

Let’s talk. DM me or book a call (link in my featured section). I’ll walk you through how to get started.

If you’re not ready yet, hit “Follow” and join me on this journey.

Because your career success isn’t your ceiling. It’s your foundation for true wealth.

Let’s build an expansive life—together. 🚀

Nkem Ezeamama, MD.

Since medical school at The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences, I’ve remained deeply committed to medical missions in Nigeria.

One experience, in particular, changed me.

During a mission to a rural village in collaboration with The Association of Nigerian Physicians in the Americas (ANPA)  we learned of a 15-year-old boy who had fallen from a mango tree 24 hours earlier.

An ultrasound at a local teaching hospital revealed internal bleeding. 

His blood count was critically low. 

He needed surgery to survive.

His parents couldn’t afford it.

As a last hope, he was sent to our team.

He arrived at our temporary clinic around 9 PM, just as we were closing. 

He was in critical condition. 

We prepared an operating room immediately.

His spleen had ruptured.

We performed an emergency splenectomy and multiple blood transfusions.

He survived!

That night was humbling. 

Those lessons shaped more than my medical calling. 

They shaped Pheenyx Capital Investment.

The same values; resilience, community, and giving back, are embedded in our mission today. 

Just as I sought to expand access to healthcare, 

I now work to empower healthcare professionals through real estate, so they can build freedom and live with greater purpose.

This journey isn’t mine alone.

It’s built on mentorship, collaboration, and trust!

If you want to see what intentional alignment, shared vision, and collective execution look like in action, join us this 
Thursday, as we bring Park at Arlington to the finish line.

From the Bedside to $120.5MM in Real Estate | ER Doctor Turned Investor | Helping Healthcare Professionals Turn Paychecks into Passive Income | Founder @ Pheenyx Capital | Let’s Build an Expansive Life.

During the holidays in Nigeria, surrounded by family, I felt the impact of my decision to venture into real estate investing in a way numbers never could.

Not in spreadsheets.

Not in returns.

But in moments I didn’t have to rush through.

Time with family.

Unhurried conversations.

Laughter that didn’t need to be cut short.

I even had the chance to sit with some investors and potential investors back home and talk about everything,and anything. 

My mum, of course, had to know the people I roll with 😂

That season left me deeply grateful, not just for what I’ve built, but for why I built it.

A few years ago, I chose a path that gave me something medicine alone couldn’t guarantee: choice.

Real estate hasn’t just changed my finances.

It’s changed how I experience life.

I didn’t choose this path to escape work.

I chose it to reclaim time, presence, and intentional living.

As I step into this year, a few reflections stay with me:

• Wealth isn’t only what you accumulate, it’s what you get to experience along the way.

• Waiting for the “perfect time” often costs more than starting imperfectly.

• Options create peace. And peace changes how you show up everywhere else.

If you’re contemplating life outside medicine, or outside the one path you’ve always known, remember this:

You don’t have to abandon what you’ve built to expand your life.

You just have to start building options.

That’s what I’ll be unpacking this week

This isn’t about hype.

It’s about perspective, timing, and intentional moves that support the life you actually want to live.

This holiday reminded me:

Success isn’t just about what you build.

It’s about the life you get to live while building it.

And that, to me, is real wealth!

I just got back from #WPW conference 2026, and I’m still sitting with the weight of the moment!

Being in a room filled with brilliant, driven women, sharing stories, wisdom, laughter, and truth, was nothing short of electrifying.

I had the honor of speaking on Legacy Planning:

Building Something That Outlives You
And what struck me most wasn’t just the engagement from the audience, it was the collective hunger in the room.

A hunger to build intentionally.

To live beyond survival mode.

To create impact that doesn’t end with us.

Legacy isn’t just about money or titles.
It’s about what remains because you were here.

• The lives you touched
• The doors you opened
• The systems you built
• The courage you modeled
• The example you set for those coming after you

Standing on that stage reminded me why I do this work, both in medicine and beyond it.

Because women, especially high-achieving women, don’t need permission to dream bigger.

We need space, language, and tools to build lives that reflect the fullness of who we are.

Women Professionals wellness conferences was a powerful reminder that these conversations matter.

And that I want more of them.

More rooms.
More stages.
More opportunities to speak on leadership, wealth, purpose, and legacy.

If you’re building spaces where these conversations belong, I’d love to connect.

Grateful. Energized. And deeply inspired.

Here’s to building things that outlive us. ✨

Have a great weekend ahead!

I grew up in a very traditional, conservative environment, where following the rules and staying within the lines were seen as the path to success.

But within that structure, my parents taught me something deeper:

• Persistence matters more than comfort.

There’s a memory that stands out from my childhood.

I must have been around 10 or 11 years old, struggling with a school project that felt impossible at the time.

I remember sitting at the kitchen table,
completely frustrated, ready to give up.

My father sat beside me and said something I’ve carried ever since:

📌 "Just because something is hard doesn’t mean it’s out of your reach.
It means you have to stretch further to get it.”

That single lesson shaped how I approached:

• Medicine
• Entrepreneurship
• Leadership

The belief that I, as a woman, could not only pursue, but excel, in challenging spaces was instilled in me early.

And yes, there were moments when my ambition was questioned.

When it was labeled “too much.”

But my family taught me something else just as important:

• There is nothing wrong with ambition
• Nothing wrong with aiming higher than expected
• Nothing wrong with wanting more

That lesson still guides me today, whether I’m navigating business challenges or balancing life as a doctor and entrepreneur.

It’s about:

• Continuing to stretch further
• Believing you can reach what feels just out of grasp
• Doing so unapologetically

Because growth doesn’t come from staying within the lines.

It comes from honoring the courage to stretch beyond them.

Conversations like this remind me of women who’ve modeled that courage so visibly leaders like Bozoma Saint John.

Keep stretching. Keep showing up for yourself, unapologetically.

A few years ago, I hit a milestone I had been chasing for a long time. Revenue was up. Opportunities were flowing in faster than I could respond.

From the outside, it looked like everything was finally working.

But something felt off.

I wasn’t unhappy.
I wasn’t failing.
I was just… heavy.

My phone never stopped buzzing.

Every “yes” created three new obligations.
Every win came with an invisible cost.

And one day, the question surfaced, quiet but unsettling:

Why does success feel like it’s shrinking my life instead of expanding it?

That was the moment I realized something no one prepares you for:

Revenue can grow while your peace quietly disappears.

Not all growth is aligned.

Not every opportunity is meant to be accepted.

And not every version of success leads to freedom.

I didn’t need to work harder.

I needed to work differently.

So I started asking better questions:

✔️ What kind of life am I actually building?

✔️ Does this version of success leave room to breathe?

✔️ Can this scale without costing me myself?

That shift changed everything.

It’s also the lens through which I now look at real estate investing.

Because when done right, real estate isn’t about adding more to your plate, it’s about creating space:

Space in your time.

Space in your finances.

Space in your life.

That’s why tonight, I’m hosting a live conversation on:

Why 2026 is a perfect time to invest in real estate not for hustle, but for alignment.

Not hype.

Not shortcuts.

But a framework for building wealth that supports the life you actually want to live.

Because the real goal was never just growth.

It was a life that could hold it!

I’ll be honest, some days, picking up a shift in the ER feels easier than being an entrepreneur. 🤭

You show up, do your work, and at the end of the day, you get a paycheck. 

Simple.

When I embarked on this entrepreneurship journey, building Pheenyx Capital Investment it was a completely different story.

I didn’t fully understand the challenges ahead. 

I faced far more no’s than yes’s in the beginning. 

Honestly? I took many of them personally. 😂

But over time, I learned something crucial: 

success isn’t about everyone saying “yes” to you. 

Everyone has their own path, their own risk tolerance, their own timing.

What I initially saw as rejection, I now see as part of the process, lessons shaping my approach, resilience, and strategy.

The truth is: 

building something meaningful, whether it’s a business, an investment, or your personal brand, is rarely easy.

But here’s the thing:

✅ Every “no” brings clarity

✅ Every setback teaches patience

✅ Every challenge helps you define the path that’s truly yours

If you’re struggling with doors that won’t open, or people who don’t yet see your vision, remember: 

your journey is unique, and your yes is coming, often from the opportunities you create yourself.

📅 Thursday, 29th January

🕕 6PM CST

This session is for those who want to learn how to create wealth, build their own opportunities, and bring projects like this to the finish line.

See you there!

When I was about 8 years old, living in Nigeria, my family had a small garden behind our house…


And my mother used to grow vegetables there:

Bananas, coconuts, mangoes, tomatoes, peppers and more

One afternoon, I watched her carefully tend to a row of young plants that hadn’t been growing well.

She noticed I was watching her closely and explained that even though the plants looked fragile, with enough care, attention, and patience, they would grow strong.

She said:

“It’s not about how they start, but how much care you give them to grow.”

She said it in reference to an Igbo proverb, and she said it in Igbo.

At the time, I didn’t think much of it beyond the simple lesson of taking care of things.

But as I’ve gotten older, this memory keeps coming back to me.

It stands out because it’s so symbolic of how I’ve approached life.

Whether it was:

• Pursuing my career as a physician
• Venturing into entrepreneurship and real estate investing or,
• Building a life filled with purpose

I’ve learned that success and growth don’t happen overnight.

Just like those plants, they need:

• constant nurturing
• patience
• dedication
• and care over time

That lesson has guided me through many difficult moments.

📌 It reminds me that setbacks don’t define the outcome.

What matters is:

• the effort we put in
• the persistence we show
• and the faith that we’ll see the results of that care eventually

It’s a simple memory.

But it has become a powerful metaphor for how I live my life and chase my dreams.

What is one memory you remind yourself of to this very day?

Share it with me down below 👇🏿

𝗡𝗠𝗛𝗖 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 – 𝗠𝘆 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 (𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗩𝗲𝗴𝗮𝘀)
 
What struck me most wasn’t fear.
And it wasn’t euphoria either.
 
It was clarity.
 
The multifamily market doesn’t feel broken.
It feels… 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲, 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱.
 
Here’s what I walked away with and will focus on especially for Pheenyx Capital

  1•  𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗿𝗮 𝗼𝗳 “𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲𝘀” 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿.
Capital is still here, but it’s no longer chasing. It’s choosing. Location, quality, and execution matter again. That’s not a downturn; that’s a return to fundamentals.

  2•  𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀.
Owners with decent basis and competent operations are being rewarded with options: refinance, recap, extend, breathe. The market isn’t forcing decisions, but rather, it’s allowing patience. And patience is power.

  3•  𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁... 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆.
Strong assets in strong locations are playing a completely different game than aging properties in marginal submarkets. Lumping them together misses the point. Strategy now has to be precise, not broad.

  4•  𝗗𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴
The pressure points are real, but they’re narrow. And because they’re narrow, they’re harder to access unless you’re already positioned, disciplined, and well-capitalized.

  5•  𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗳𝗲𝗹𝘁... 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲𝗱.
Not rosy. Not panicked. More like: “We understand the rules now.”
That shift matters. Markets move forward once owners stop waiting for a narrative rescue and start operating in reality.
 
My optimistic take?
 
The next winners in multifamily won’t be the loudest or the most aggressive.

They’ll be the ones who can underwrite nuance, manage complexity, and play the long game without needing constant validation from the market.
 
2026 doesn’t feel like a boom year.
It feels like a 𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿.
 
And those are often the most important ones.
 
I am curious what others felt in the room. Drop it in the comments

“As a physician, I’ve disciplined myself to save a significant amount of money… and yet, something still feels missing.”

That’s what a fellow professional shared with me recently.

And it’s more common than people admit.

Saving is good.
It’s responsible.
It’s necessary.
It’s the foundation of financial security.

Most high-income professionals do this well:

✔️ They max retirement accounts.

✔️ Maintain emergency funds.

✔️ Delay gratification.

✔️ Follow the rules.

And yet, many still feel financially stuck.

Because saving alone preserves money.

It protects you.

But it doesn’t create freedom.

It doesn’t solve:

• Dependence on active income

• Trading time for money indefinitely

• Inflation quietly eroding purchasing power

• The inability to step away without anxiety

• The absence of real options

This is the tension many professionals live with:

Financially responsible, yet still financially dependent on working.

True freedom begins when saving is paired with strategy.

When money is intentionally directed toward ownership, leverage, and income-producing assets.

Money that works while you sleep.

While you practice.

While you live.

Discipline without strategy only goes so far!

You can save diligently and still feel the gap between security and freedom.

Closing that gap requires education, intentional action, and alignment,.not reckless risk.

That’s what I’ll be breaking down tomorrow in a live conversation:

📆 Thursday, January 8th

🕕 6:00 PM CST

“Why 2026 Is the Perfect Time to Invest in Real Estate.”

[ https://lnkd.in/e2TQSVFH ]

This isn’t hype.

It’s perspective, math, and timing, for high-income professionals who want options, not just income.

Because the real cost of waiting isn’t money.

It’s time, choice, and peace!

The things I do every day to stay in the game.

I keep a journal.

I write in it every single day.

Not because every day is great.

But because every day deserves to be seen.

That journal helps me take stock of:

→ where I am
→ where I’m going

Some pages are neat and hopeful.
Some pages have tear marks on them.

Because real life looks like that.

Some days are strong.
Some days are heavy.

And both still count.

Writing reminds me of two things:

→ where I’ve been
→ and why I can’t quit now

Gratitude plays a huge role in this for me.

I’m deeply grateful for the last five, seven years;

→ the doors that opened
→ the people I met
→ the investors who looked at me and said,

“I see you. I believe in what you’re building.”

That kind of belief stays with you.

I once heard Tony Robbins say:

“Life will never be the same.”

And I believed him.

Not in a motivational-quote way, but because I’ve lived it.

Growth changes you.
Commitment changes you.
Showing up when no one is clapping changes you.

Here’s the real lesson I’ve learned:

You don’t win by being perfect.
You win by being relentless.

→ Showing up again
→ Staying consistent when motivation fades
→ Choosing progress over comfort

If you’re reading this and feeling tired, stuck, or unsure, remember this:

Consistency compounds.
Gratitude grounds you.
Small daily practices keep you in the game longer than talent ever will.

Keep going.

Your future self is already grateful that you didn’t stop. 💛

The most expensive thing about medicine isn’t student loans. We talk about debt a lot in medicine. Six figures. Sometimes more.

Years of sacrifice tied to a number that feels overwhelming at first.

And yes, student loans matter.

But they’re loud.

They’re not the most expensive thing medicine takes.

What costs more is invisible.

Here’s the simple math:

An ER physician earning ~$300K/year takes home roughly ~$180K after taxes.

Over 10 years, that’s ~$1.8M in net income, before lifestyle creep, inflation, or burnout.

Now here’s what we rarely calculate:

If those same 10 years pass:

❌️ Without ownership,

❌️ Without assets compounding quietly in the background,

❌️ Without leverage working for you,

The real cost isn’t what you spent.

It’s what you never built!

Income is linear.

Ownership compounds.

A single well-structured real estate investment, made early, can grow into seven figures over time, through:

 
✔️ Appreciation, 

✔️ Equity paydown, and 

✔️ Tax advantages, 

without more shifts, more nights, or more holidays missed.

That realization changed everything for me.

I used to believe freedom lived on the other side of:

• Paying off loans
• “One more year” of grinding
• Feeling fully ready

What I learned instead:

Debt ends.

Time doesn’t come back.

Compounding doesn’t wait for permission.
Medicine is meaningful work.

But it was never meant to be the only thing we build.

This is about perspective, math, and timing, for high-income professionals who want freedom, not just a paycheck. 

Some truths can’t be unseen!

I recently read a post by a creator who publicly set a goal to hit 100,000 followers by December 2025, but stopped at 13,000.

And instead of forcing it…

She took the goal back.

Why?

Because during a period when impressions dropped (yes, creators complained):

✔️ Revenue increased
✔️ Clients increased
✔️ Impact deepened

She stopped chasing clouds
and started chasing CLARITY.

That’s the shift I wish more professionals would make.

Everyone keeps asking:
“What really drives long-term results on LinkedIn, visibility or engagement?”

Here’s the truth:

Visibility gets people to see you.
Engagement makes people remember you.

But here’s what most people miss, meaningful engagement actually drives visibility too.

Not copy-paste comments.
Not AI-flavored responses.
Not posting just to go viral.

When you focus on clarity:

1️⃣ Speaking directly to your people

2️⃣ Addressing real, lived pain points

3️⃣ Sharing perspective instead of performing for attention

…the algorithm follows you, not the other way around.

Chasing virality creates noise.

Chasing clarity builds trust.

And trust is what leads to conversations, clients, and real influence.

That’s why impressions alone are a weak metric.

Impact is measured by:

• who listens
• who stays
• who reaches out
• who takes action

This is exactly why I created LinkedIn Unlocked; to help professionals stop shouting into the void and start showing up with clarity that compounds into real opportunities.

So if you’ve been posting consistently and wondering, “Why isn’t this turning into opportunities?”

This is for you 👇🏿

The goal isn’t to be everywhere.

The goal is to be unmistakable to the right people!

Have a great weekend ahead!

Dear LinkedIn family, I want to personally apologize for today’s webinar experience.

Due to unexpected technical and network issues on my end, I was not able to deliver the session in the way you deserved and I know how valuable your time is. 

Spending part of your day troubleshooting instead of learning was frustrating, and I take full responsibility for that. 

Please know this is not the standard I hold myself to. 

I will be hosting a new webinar very soon, with everything fully tested and dialed in, so we can focus entirely on delivering value, clarity, and an exceptional experience from start to finish. 

You’ll be the first to hear once the new date is confirmed. 

Thank you sincerely for your patience, grace, and for showing up despite the hiccup. 

I truly appreciate you!

The Emotional Side of Letting Go of Financial Control

High performers are trained to control outcomes.

Your time. Your schedule. Your income.

So when someone says,

“Build wealth without being directly involved every day,”

your nervous system quietly resists.

Because earned income feels safe.
Predictable.
In your hands.

Passive wealth, at first, feels like loss of control, even when it’s strategic.

But here’s the truth most don’t talk about:

Real wealth requires trusting systems, not just effort.

Letting go isn’t recklessness.
It’s a different kind of leadership.

Tomorrow, we’re unpacking why this transition feels emotionally uncomfortable, and how to navigate it without fear or blind leaps.

Happy Sunday!

There was a time when real estate felt out of reach.

Not because the numbers didn’t make sense,
but because no one showed what really happens before the finish line.

As a high-achieving professional, I was taught to work harder, earn more, and stay in my lane.

But the more hours I worked, the clearer it became:

✔️ More income didn’t equal more freedom.
✔️ More effort didn’t equal more ownership.

And certainty was hard to find when no one explained the process.

What most people never see is the space between interest and investment.

Between “this looks good” and “this is a disciplined deal.”

Between curiosity and conviction.

That invisible gap is where many professionals hesitate,
not because they lack capital,
but because they lack clarity.

That’s why I’m hosting a free live webinar to walk through Park at Arlington and share what it looks like to intentionally move a real estate opportunity toward the finish line, before it’s ever closed.

Not hype.
Not hindsight.

Just real-time insight into:

• How deals are evaluated
• What questions experienced investors ask early
• Where risk actually lives
• And how thoughtful decisions are made long before closing day

Bringing Park at Arlington to the Finish Line

Imagine running a powerful car with a full tank of gas… but never shifting out of first gear.

The engine is strong.

The fuel is there.

But the movement is limited.

That’s the position many high performers find themselves in.

High income.
Healthy cash flow.
Yet very little ownership.

Cash-rich, but asset-poor.

Not because of lack of effort, but because no one teaches the shift from earning well to structuring wealth well.

More income doesn’t automatically create clarity.

In fact, it often raises the stakes.

That’s what we’re unpacking this session:

Why High Performers Stay Cash-Rich but Asset-Poor and how to move from income accumulation to intentional ownership.

Fifteen years.

Last night, Julie and I celebrated our anniversary.

Today marks 15 years, and I’m feeling deeply grateful.

What stands out most to me isn’t any single milestone.

It’s the consistency.
Showing up for each other.
Coming back to each other when things were hard.

Learning, over time, how to love each other in the ways
the other person actually needed.

We’ve been through a lot together.

Two kids.
Three full deployments.
More work-ups than I can count.
Five big moves (plus a few in-town for good measure).

And all the challenges that never make it into photos.

I’m proud that when things got difficult, we chose
growth instead of letting the challenges pull us apart.

Not perfectly. Not even close.

Just honestly. Together.

I’m grateful to have found a true teammate in life.

Someone willing to walk through it with me, side by side.

Happy anniversary, Julie.

Wow, it is incredibly fulfilling to be able to partner with someone in this way. 

I’m grateful for you, Hendo, and all of the leaders I’m teamed up with.

Thank you.

One of the easiest leadership traps to fall into is this:

• You see the situation.
• You’ve done something similar before.
• You know how you would handle it now.

So you tell your teammate what to do.

It feels efficient.
Helpful, even.

But there’s a cost most leaders don’t notice until later.

When you consistently tell your team what to do, you
quietly take away their chance to learn how to think
through it themselves.

You take away:

• their opportunity to collaborate
• their chance to assess and adjust
• their ability to try, learn, and self-correct

Over time, something predictable happens.

Small decisions come back to you.
Then slightly bigger ones.

Eventually, it feels like everything needs your input.

Not because your team is incapable.

But because they were never given space to develop
their own judgment.

This is one of the hardest shifts for leaders moving from
expert to leading experts.

It’s uncomfortable to step back when you believe you
already see the way forward.

And it’s exactly the shift that creates innovative,
self-sufficient teams.

If this tension feels familiar and you want space to talk it
through, I offer a free 30-minute leader thinking session.

It's a conversation with a thinking partner, not another
set of instructions.

Snuck out the other day for a walk by the water.

I’d been inside too long.

Staring out the window at a gorgeous day.

Feeling a little stuffy and cooped up.

Nothing dramatic. I just needed to get outside and move.

On walks like that, I try not to think about projects
or solve anything.

I just pay attention.

The air.
The movement.
What I’m noticing.

My mood usually shifts first.

I feel lighter. 
More energized.
Calmer.

And without trying, that’s when things tend to surface.

An idea.
A connection.
A thought that inspires me.

I call it “receive mode.”

Not forcing anything.

Just present long enough to notice what shows up.

Mostly, though, it’s just nice to be outside, 
moving my body, enjoying the day.

Maybe you’ve noticed something similar
when you step away for a bit?

-Jenks

There’s a moment that doesn’t usually get talked about.

You’re holding a decision.

It matters.

And you can feel the weight of it sitting squarely
on your shoulders.

You don’t have all the information.
You probably never will.

And the thought creeps in quietly:

𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘧 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨?
𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭?

That’s often where leaders start hesitating.

It's not because they are incapable.

It's because they’re deciding alone.

What’s missing in that moment usually isn’t more data.

It’s different perspectives:

• to ask questions you wouldn’t think to ask yourself.
• to help surface the assumptions you’re carrying.
• to help you see other angles before you move.

Not so the decision becomes obvious.

But so you have enough confidence to move forward
and a way to learn once you do.

That’s what the clip below is really about.

Not waiting for certainty.

Instead, creating the rhythm, feedback, and
collaboration that let you adjust as you go.

It isn’t about getting it right the first time.

It’s about knowing you won’t be alone if you
need to adapt.

If this feels familiar, and you’re looking for a place to
think things through with others, I’m a DM away.
