We always begin, respond, and finish in Gratitude.

True Gratitude heals the wounded, empowers leaders, attracts greater opportunities, and strengthens relationships. It is the catalyst for success, peace, and joy.

“Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow.”

We live with an unsinkable Vision. Our “Why” is clear, simple, embraceable, and understandable.

“Everything we do, we believe in empowering leaders in families, in business and in communities… so that they inspire others to enjoy the stability and joy of even better decision making and meaningfulness.”

Our vision ensures we don’t have too many bad days in a row or get derailed by the haters… or, get overconfident when successful. “Our indefatigable vision allows us to endure through good times and the most challenging times.”

We always act based upon principles of True Wealth.

We are uncompromising when it comes to honoring, protecting, and enhancing the assets we value most—our collective Core, Experience, Contribution, and Financial Wealth. We feel empowered when we say “no” to even the very important because we know what is essential to us, as individuals, our families, our company, and our clients. Being aligned with the principles of true wealth means we always do what is in the best interest of our clients—which ultimately is in the best interest of Empowered Wealth and each of us as leaders.

We are always Curious.

As lifelong learners, we relentlessly challenge the status quo and wisely respond proactively to life’s challenges rather than merely accepting or reacting to them.

We are genuinely Compassionate with our family members, colleagues, and clients.

Compassion is kindness and empathy in action. In all cases, we extend our time, energy, and resources to assist and encourage others in resolving challenges and capturing opportunities that empower them to grow and become better leaders.

We are Accountable to others and to ourselves.

We are self-actualizing with clearly established performance metrics. We know what to do, how to do it, and then how to measure it. When we deal in generalities, we shall never succeed. When we deal in specifics, we shall rarely have a failure.

“Where performance is measured, performance improves. Where performance is measured and reported, the rate of improvement accelerates!”
–Thomas S. Monson

Being present means we lift where we stand.

We capture precious present moments that build relationships and increase awareness, trust, and joy. We optimize our achievements with steady, well-intended motion. “What small step can I take right this moment, first thing, that will move me closer to my vision for this week, this month, this quarter, and this year?” Past experiences are our best teachers. And, when combined with our clear vision of an inspiring future, we are empowered to enjoy every second in the present. Being willing to fail is considered an integral component of success. We are not afraid to fail, so long as we fail quickly and always learn from the experience. We are quick to learn, but not in such a hurry that we miss the lesson.

We are reliably Authentic, consistent, and genuine.

We find joy in who we are. We lead with well-thought-out, experience-based, and agreed-upon principles that remain constant.

“Consistent effort is a consistent challenge.”

- Bill Walsh
