The capacity to take risk is one of the biggest enablers of reaching your full potential and so we want to create a space where risk-takers can come together to talk about how they’ve developed their capacity for risk taking.

My lifelong friend/collaborator, Charlie Herrenbruck, and I have this little mantra we’ve been repeating to each other for decades: ‘If you believe it, you’ll see it.’ It sounds like something on a coffee mug, I know, but it’s stuck with us for a reason. Read More>>

Risk is a scary word to a lot of people. It conveys jumping into the unknown, or, making a decision without knowing what the outcome is going to be. It’s safe to be in the “known” rather than the unknown. It’s comfortable to be in control of your future. As Christians, and as a faith-based business, we don’t necessarily believe in risks.

I didn’t develop my ability to take risk by chasing adrenaline or being reckless. I developed it by learning how to measure downside, survive failure, and move forward anyway.

I spent over a decade practicing law in a structured, traditional environment- one that rewarded precision, risk-avoidance, and getting things exactly right. It was a career built on logic, rules, and predictability. And for a long time, that felt like the responsible choice. But alongside that professional life, I was raising three children and navigating the very real, very messy rhythms of family life. Read More>>

I didn’t grow up thinking of myself as a risk-taker. I became one out of necessity. There were moments in my life and career where staying comfortable wasn’t an option anymore. I learned to trust myself by showing up, doing the work, and proving to myself that I could survive uncertainty. Read More>>

Risk didn’t enter my life through boldness; it entered through clarity. Through a growing awareness that staying comfortable was quietly limiting me. The turning point came during a trip to New York, listening to Josh Young speak about the tension of building someone else’s vision while feeling your own creative voice recede into the background.
