Ryan and Katrina have always wondered about Nature vs Nurture and what goes into making a person successful. They both had unconventional and tumultuous childhoods which made them ask the question: How do you raise a good human?

The fire was then ignited to start conversations and dive deep into learning what it means to be great once they knew they were expecting their first child. They want nothing more than to create the most successful path forward for their son Chase. Like all parents, they want to give their child the best chance to succeed and hope that sharing their journey and quest will help other parents navigate the wild west of raising great humans.
