Who Are You Guys?
Everything we stand for is in the context of our “Flywheel”
The Five Key Areas of Life Framework
With the “Self” at the center
Worldview. Our view of the world is based on what we experienced as children all the way through to our current state and every transformative experience we’ve had our whole lives. These views change and evolve over time, but they form the lens through which we see the world. Our worldview shapes the way we handle relationships, money, our profession and our health
Relationships. We have all different types of relationships with men, women, relatives, colleagues and friends. Our relationships are shaped by our view of the world, our attitude about money, what we do for a living and how we take care of our minds and bodies
Money. There are many ways to make and spend money. The way we view money is typically either from a feeling of scarcity or abundance. We want to shift from scarcity to abundance and that is done with work in the other 4 areas of life
Profession. We work for someone else or we work for ourselves. The focus in this key area of life is purpose. Are we doing what God put us on this earth to do or are we going through the motions and collecting a paycheck?
Health. Most of us have huge opportunities to be healthier, both mentally and physically. We explore a wide variety of options and support consistent and enjoyable lifestyle choices
