Dear Monday
Dear Monday is a podcast about the decisions that change the shape of your life. Most people talk about opportunity in terms of upside — growth, freedom, financial potential. But far fewer conversations sit with what lives underneath those decisions: the obligations, the constraints, the commitments that are difficult to unwind once they're made.
This show exists in that space.
Each episode explores the realities behind ownership — business ownership, franchise investment, career exits, and other high-stakes commitments that reshape financial and personal life.
I spent years inside franchise ownership and deal advisory — walking prospective owners through the discovery process and watching how the industry was designed to move people toward decisions, not through them. Dear Monday is what I built for the moment in between.
The conversations are reflective, structured, and grounded in one principle: Clarity before commitment.
Rather than motivation or hype, Dear Monday offers disciplined thinking about risk, responsibility, and the long arc of a decision. The kind of thinking that belongs in the room before a contract is signed.
Because once it is — the real work begins.

This episode is part of Season 1 of Dear Monday—the foundation of the show. These conversations centered on facing life’s demands with courage. As Dear Monday evolves, newer episodes focus on clarity before commitment and the decisions that shape what Monday requires.
Friend, all good things must come to an end! This Season has been so good that it's hard to believe we've reached the end.
In the last episode of Season 2, I'm sharing the microphone with a dear friend who is helping us close out with a bang! Staci Janisse and I are talking about how to change your vantage point. Because here's the truth: It's only UP from here! When you change the way you view your circumstances, then everything around you starts to change. Your outlook, your expectations, the words you speak, the way you handle setbacks, and even how you treat yourself are all a reflection of your vision.
It's only UP from here, friend! Declare today that things are never going back to the way they were. You will progress. You will get to the other side. You will overcome. You will change the game!
