Our Atlanta team had the best time celebrating the holidays today with a delicious taco bar, a sweet cookie swap and everyone’s favorite: the gift exchange! Gifts were stolen up to three times, adding some extra holiday fun and laughs. 🎁
I don't know Teddy (yet), nor the Chick-fil-A folks he mentions here (yet). What I do know is that algorithms work (in this instance, for the better) because his values match mine and because of that (even being a 3rd connection), his post reached my LinkedIn feed. My takeaway: 1. Put good out there and it will find its tribe. 2. Y'all be your best self out there….FOR yourself as much as FOR your neighbor. His takeaways (from that post and worth reposting, to entice you to read it in full): 1. Small acts of kindness go such a long way. 2. Culture is lived - every day, by everyone.
We were in the airport last week. As our girls played near the gate, a guy in an Auburn hat walked up. “Y’all have the cutest girls,” he said. “I have a 4 and 2 year old at home.” He was flying to Raleigh to check on a new store for his company. After a couple minutes of chatting, he knelt down and asked the girls: “Do y’all like chicken nuggets?” Then he handed us a few gift cards to get a meal on him. On the plane, I sat next to another man. This time, in a Michigan hat. When we land, he turns to me and says, “Well, they did pretty good!” He has three kids under 10 at home. He gets it. We talk about Michigan football for a few minutes. Great win over Ohio State, big new QB recruit, some hope for next year. And then HE pulls out gift cards for free chicken nuggets. “What is happening?” I think to myself. “Do we look that hungry?” We get off the plane and go our separate ways. - - - You can probably guess. Both of them worked for Chick-fil-A Restaurants. During their travels, they were looking for small opportunities to do something nice for a family. Here’s what I took from these interactions: 1. Small acts of kindness go such a long way. 2. Culture is lived - every day, by everyone. Thanks Grant Yeilding and Malcolm Simpson — y’all are awesome and great ambassadors of your company. I hope this post reaches leadership so they know the impact you’re making out there!

Happy Thanksgiving Happy black Friday also (book a call at Raises.com for a $5000 credit) Here I make a video explaining: How I spent Thanksgiving is a time to reflect on what truly matters—relationships, gratitude, and shared values. If your deal hasn’t closed yet, think of it as a reminder: you’re only as strong as the relationships you’ve built. Authentic connections with the right people can unlock the opportunities you’ve been waiting for. Right now, I’m in Boca Raton, then went to West Palm Beach, surrounded by a community that understands the power of relationships. It’s a place where success isn’t just measured in dollars but in the trust and values you share with others. Boca Raton has some of the highest population densities of centimillionaires and billionaires. Thanksgiving teaches us that life isn’t just about transactions; it’s about giving, aligning with your purpose, and connecting with like-minded people who uplift you. Whether in business or family, surrounding yourself with the right individuals transforms your life. Many people waste time and resources on relationships that don’t serve them. Instead, take this Thanksgiving as a moment to align with those who share your vision and values. Build connections that are not just beneficial but meaningful, rooted in trust and mutual growth. Remember, success isn’t just about wealth—it’s about fulfillment in all areas of life: health, family, and spirituality. As you gather around the table this Thanksgiving, let it be a reminder to focus on what truly enriches your life. When you prioritize the right people, the right opportunities will follow. If you’re interested in raising money in the U.S. under these changing regulations, booking a consultation could provide more specific guidance on navigating the new landscape.With this, and the interest rates low, and the regulations changing, take action while momentum is high by booking us at Raises.com

I enjoy Miller's musings. . . . it made me think - why? My thought: Spoiled kids are, in part, a result of not being raised with the values of responsibility & accountability. . . We see it all around us; "gi'me more, more, more". More things, more privilege, more demands - & consequentially, a lack of respect, less caring for others, less kindness, less accountability for one's actions. What spoils kids is a lack of balance. If they have more, they need to BE more -- to keep life in perspective. It needs to flow in both directions. Example: If they park that new sports car on the lawn & break the sprinkler, then then need to learn to grab the shovel & fix it & not just leave that to Dad or the sprinkler repair man while they focus on some form of self indulgence, such as self aggrandizing social media. Entitled children tend to have a universal commonality: they are not held accountable for their actions. They expect others to clean up the "messes" they make. It starts with small things . . . & over time that pervasive attitude becomes a way of life. Do you ever notice the commonality of politics & raising kids? The goal should be, better values make for a better society. Teach them correct principles - & raise them to govern themselves.

I always pick the counter! Especially in NYC! Started in the 70’s when we would go to Woolworth’s for lunch with my mother in Orlando. Counter life is rather nostalgic for me! Kinda like dining at the Red Lobster and Chi Chi’s… both massive treats when I was a kid in Central Florida. To this day.. even after a modicum of professional and financial success… I get emotional when I slide into a booth at Red Lobster for a random weekday lunch reminding myself how grateful I am for the decadence of eating popcorn shrimp… for lunch… on a Tuesday!!! I may love Ralph Lauren people… but make no mistake… I love “The Red Lobster” even more! When I take our three sons to lunch for popcorn shrimp, I tell them the story every time of my mother saving her quarters for 6 months to treat our family to dinner out! They groan and lament each time but I so hope they don’t forget. You can spoil your children without raising spoiled children… I hope!
