This trip wasn’t just about travel—it was about presence, connection, and clarity. As we spent time with our kids, my parents, and each other, I was reminded how fleeting life can be and how essential it is to invest in the people who matter most. Finishing The 5 Types of Wealth on the drive helped me see this time together not as a break from life, but as a vital part of building a life rooted in love, intention, and true wealth.

Presence is powerful. It reassures, heals, and strengthens bonds. When we give someone our full attention—eye contact, active listening, engaged body language—we communicate: “You matter. You are valued. I see you.”
