Are You Trapped in the Mindset of More?
10+ years ago at a Tony Robbins event, I learned about the Emotional Home. We may have a nice house or car, but we actually spend all our lives in the Emotional Home created by our minds. Question: Does your Emotional Home need a renovation? For example, there are 3...
Does your Emotional Home need a renovation?
Gents – Graduating from Glenbrook North H.S. in '93 was no cakewalk. I cranked to notch the grades (and golf trophies) to get into Princeton. At Princeton, I cranked to get to Wall Street. At Lazard, I cranked to get a private equity job. As a PE analyst, I cranked to...
Are you on track for 2024?
Can you believe Summer 2024 is here already? How are those 2024 goals looking—especially your health goals? I promised myself 50 yoga sessions in 2024, and here at week 22, I'm only at 14. That's an F, so I feel your pain if you're falling behind. Pre-Summer Health...
Does your Peer Group support your Personal Growth?
My peer group supported my success, wealth, and (sometimes conspicuous) consumption...but not my personal growth. I designed Valhalla Ascend to create a peer group of men who understand trophies are overrated and now seek to invest in themselves. Valhalla Ascend V...
Why do we take vacations?
Summer vacation often means splurges like a birthday bash in Mykonos or brunch parties in the Hamptons. But what really drives us to spend so much time and money escaping to these destinations? Many of us cite reasons such as "family time" or "a mental break." Yet,...
Do you need an investment in you?
Gents – In August 2015, turning 40 meant an entire month of extravagance. First was Ibiza, where I navigated the island with an entourage and bodyguard. It ended in Stockholm with a two day birthday extravaganza, culminating with Ace of Base's surprise performance. It...
Do you have a $50,000 morning routine?
Could 5 minutes per day be worth $50K? During our last HBS mindset call, one classmate said his new morning routine increased his productivity by 30 minutes per day. He feels calmer, clearer and less distracted at work, which means getting home to his daughters...
Who’s in your foursome?
Gents – While on the Princeton golf team, curating the perfect foursome was my secret weapon. Why? Because being surrounded by great golfers fast-tracked my growth as a player. You're likely a player in the business arena. You’ve got serious investors, CEOs, and...

Official Dates: October 3 – 5, Lundy Farm, NY
Gents – I struggled with the questions in this video. If you are, too, there’s no better place to struggle than Lundy Farms, a 60-acre paradise nestled in 30,000 acres of forest, 2 hours from NYC. Just 1 minute; full screen and volume: The Question At Valhalla Ascend...
Don’t be the old guy at the club
Gents – Don’t be the ‘old guy at the club.’ Here's the hard truth: If you're reading this, your fluid intelligence is fading, starting around 30, and you're set to decline professionally (per Harvard Prof. Arthur Brooks). The bright side? High achievers can transition...
What are you optimizing for? Thoughts from HBS reunions.
At my 20th reunion from Harvard Business School, it was great to see that so many friends had done so well. Interestingly, many of those reaching notable financial heights had remained in the same industry, or even at the same company, for 10 or 20 years. This...
