    Part 3: The Nilson Family Legacy System w/ Rhiannon Nilson

    Episode 028: In this special episode, I get the honor of interviewing my favorite person in the world—my wife, Rhiannon. If you know Rhiannon, you already know this conversation is going to be fun, real, and full of great stories. We talk about our journey as a family and how we began thinking more intentionally about what we want our wealth to support. Together, we share the three core values we want our money to serve and the early steps we’ve taken to build a family legacy system around those values. It’s not perfect, and it’s definitely still a work in progress—but that’s part of the point. Creating a family legacy isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about starting the conversation and building something meaningful over time. If you’ve ever wondered how to begin aligning your money with your family’s values, this episode will give you a behind-the-scenes look at how we’re doing it in our own home.

    Part 2: How to Build Your Family Legacy System

    Episode 027: In part 2 of the trilogy, I share how to intentionally build a Family Legacy System that helps your wealth strengthen your family instead of slowing dividing it.  Drawing from my own family experiences, I walk you through the simple frameworks that can help families align their money with what matters most: Meaningful relationships, meaningful work, and meaningful giving.   You’ll learn why money without structure often creates confusion, conflict or entitlement – and how a clear system can turn wealth into a tool that builds connection, opportunity, and purpose across generations.  If you want your money to do more than just grow… if you want it to strengthen your family and your legacy, this episode will give you a powerful place to start.

    Part 1: What is money for?

    Episode 026: This solo episode digs into the foundational question most people skip past: the true purpose of money. Reflecting on my own journey— I learned to earn, save, invest, and protect money, yet spent years without clarity on its actual role in my life. That missing piece created a gap: without knowing what money is for, it’s impossible to know how much is enough. My hope is that you’ll work towards building your own personal blueprint for money—one rooted in values, intentionality, and the life you want to create. When you define the purpose of money, you gain the ability to make aligned decisions about when to spend, when to save, and when to share.  The episode encourages listeners to see money not as a scoreboard, but as a tool for relationships, meaningful work, and generosity. Take a listen if you want to discover: The purpose of money in a meaningful life — moving beyond accumulation to clarity and intention.Values-driven financial planning — how knowing what matters most shapes every money decision.Redefining “enough” — why understanding the purpose of money helps you determine sufficiency.Timing and intentional use — recognizing when it’s the right moment to spend, invest, or give.Money as a tool for connection — using resources to deepen relationships, support meaningful work, and contribute to others.

We also get into the real differences between private real estate deals and publicly traded REITs—how they work, what kind of control you keep, and how to think about liquidity and diversification. Finally, we walk through the costs, the timelines, and what investors should understand before jumping into a 721 exchange. Whether you’re just starting to explore these strategies or looking to refine the way you invest, this episode gives you a clear framework to work from.

    Next Play Mindset: High Performance Habits w/ Alan Stein, Jr.

    Episode 023: In this episode, I sit down with Alan Stein Jr. to dig into the heart of his Next Play philosophy—a mindset built around resilience, presence, and the ability to move forward with purpose after any setback. Alan and I talk about how this idea was born on the basketball court, where he spent years as a high‑performance coach working with elite athletes, and how he’s since carried those same principles into the business world. We explore what “Next Play” really means on both a micro and macro level. On the micro side, it’s about how quickly you can reset after a mistake or disappointment. On the macro side, it’s about stepping back, reflecting, and intentionally choosing what comes next in your life or career. Alan shares how emotional awareness, visualization, and preparation all play a role in making that shift effectively. A big theme in our conversation is the power of fundamentals—how the basics we often overlook are actually the foundation for high performance, whether you’re running a company or running a fast break. We also talk about the importance of self‑awareness, letting go of unproductive emotions, and embracing the ongoing process of becoming a better version of yourself. If you’re navigating a transition, feeling stuck, or just looking for a practical way to stay grounded and move forward, this episode offers a ton of insight and encouragement. Follow along with Alan on social media @alansteinjr

    Compounding Impact: How Giving Multiplies Meaning w/ Innovia's Dave Sonntag

    Episode 022: Dave Sonntag is the Chief Philanthropy Officer for the Innovia Foundation. In this role, Dave develops charitable solutions for people, families, and organizations that align their values with making an impact in their community.  In this episode, I sit down with Dave to talk about the true power of generosity—and why it’s about far more than money. Dave shares how generosity can be life‑changing not just for the people on the receiving end, but for those who choose to live with a mindset of giving. We explore why so many people feel like they have to “wait” to be generous, and how that belief often gets in the way of doing good right where we are. Dave challenges the idea that generosity requires wealth or the perfect situation, reminding us that time, attention, encouragement, and effort are often the most meaningful gifts we can offer. Dave also talks about the importance of forming habits around giving and opening our minds to the many different ways generosity can show up in everyday life. Whether you’re leading a family, a team, or a community, this conversation is a powerful reminder that generosity is accessible to everyone—and when practiced intentionally, it can have a lasting impact well beyond what we see.
