I was jealous. My friend, Benta, told me, “My birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks. I don’t want a gift. I just want you to save Kshs.200,000 for an international trip.” (That’s around $2,000). All the while, I had depleted all my savings and had about $20 to my name. Red cheek …

Who in their right mind wakes up at 4 a.m. for a book club? Well, apparently, I do—at least, I did this one time. Detention’s second session took place on Monday, January 13th, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. CST. But for me, living in a time zone nine hours ahead, that meant a 4:00 a.m. wake-up …

Masterminds are for people like me. Let’s see if they’re for you too. I’ve recently volunteered to help administrate Story Luck’s Slacker’s Mastermind and wanted to learn more about masterminds in general. I’ve discovered masterminds are powerful communities where people come together to share knowledge, challenge each other, and grow. They attract a wide range …

Photo by: Anna Shvets I have a little confession: the first book I fell head over heels for was a self-help book. Yep, you heard that right. And honestly, I doubt it’ll ever grace the reading list of any book club out there. (Though, with Detention, you never know!) The book is Attached by Amir …

McKenzie and I don’t see enough shows together. I’m a blue haired storyteller who writes and produces more than he creates and McKenzie is a cute bespectacled director of finance type. She volunteers-to-get-free-tickets because she LOVES theater. So, when our couple’s counselor assured us, “You’ve been together for over a decade. You need to do …

You see, I’ve spent the last 2 years testing out various Mastermind Groups as well as running my own.
Through the end of this year I’ll be testing out an all new framework for a paid mastermind that’s focused on people who have accomplished a lot in their lives, but still feel like they’re behind the 8-ball compared to their peers.
