The People Who Show Up When Everything Falls Apart

Описание: I almost died on an island once. (Okay, dramatic — but six adults stranded in a thunderstorm on a borrowed pontoon boat comes close.)

This is a story about three families who decided 25 years ago to do life together. Not just "grab dinner occasionally" together — but move cities, raise kids, and show up in the hard stuff together. We call ourselves Family on Mission. FOM for short.

In 2016, my business was falling apart. I was working harder than I'd ever worked and nothing was clicking. I broke down at a table with these friends and my buddy Jay said something that changed everything: "Whatever you need, we've got you."

That's a 5-second moment. The kind Matthew Dicks writes about in Storyworthy — tiny, almost invisible moments where something shifts and changes everything.

Last week one of our friends lost his dad. We gathered. We cried. And I felt it again — I'm not alone in this.

This is also a video about why the people you surround yourself with in business matter. Not just the ones who hype you up — the ones who sit with you when you're not crushing it. The ones who ask hard questions. The ones who say "we've got you" when you're at your worst.

That's what a real mastermind is. Actual people in your corner.

If you've never experienced that, or if you're in between groups right now, maybe it's time. I've got twelve seats in my group for entrepreneurs building something real — link below if you're curious.
