New things are happening on LinkedIn, and in rolling out its latest features, it has become more than just a platform for resumes and job hunting. In the latest episode of my vlog, I share with you the 3 LinkedIn innovations and the unique opportunities these offer.

I started paying attention to cryptocurrency about 2 years ago when a friend of mine told me that she invested just a few hundred dollars and that investment turned into 6 figures of value and later 7. Before I began to invest, I wanted to understand what it is and how it works and why in the world something could escalate in value so fast.

I still remember sitting at Starbucks about 18 months ago with my boss, Rick Dunham, where I shared with him my fascination with cryptocurrency and the 2 of us trying to wrap our minds around what it is and the implications that can follow? Unfortunately, we didn’t figure it all out in that hour at Starbucks, but it was the beginning of a journey.

These conversations took me down a path of questions that included:

• What is money?

• Why is money worth anything?

• Why do banks exist?

• Can money be worth something one day and nothing the next?

• Do we need a new kind of money?

• What is blockchain?

• Is it really possible to build a...

I’ve been working remotely for almost five years now. I love the flexibility that allows me to be able to work from home, while traveling, and with a team that is distributed around the world. In the process, I’ve learned the need for tools to collaborate, organize, systematize and personalize connections. In this episode, I’m talking about three essential tools my team and I have been using, that may also help you work more effectively. How about you? What tools do you and your team use?

Before you jump into this vlog, I want to encourage you to check out the podcast Coming to New York City. On the podcast my wife and I tell our story of moving to New York City and give insights for those looking to travel to or move to NYC. 

A few years ago, my family and I moved from Texas to New York and I love so much about this city. While my vlog is focused on social media, I sure love how some creators are using YouTube to share their journey in NYC. In this episode, I’m sharing some of my favorite NYC vloggers and I think there’s a thing or two that every creator can learn from watching these 10 individuals share their story through video.

In this vlog episode, I share 5 key reasons why I left Wordpress for Squarespace. I still believe Wordpress is a viable option for many websites, but I believe there is now an even better option for most websites.

Messenger Bots sound complicated, confusing and something out of the future. They don’t have to be any of these things. They can be valuable now and they can be created without knowing code at all.

About a year ago Facebook released the Messenger for Kids app to introduce social media to kids under the age of 13 in a controlled environment. Having a 6-year old and a 9-year old, my wife and I have always talked about whether or not to allow our daughters on social media platforms. In this episode of the vlog, I’m sharing more about FB Messenger for Kids and how we manage it, which I hope will help you decide for your family as well!

I can’t believe this day is finally here! I can’t believe the words I’m about to type! I can’t be more proud to say:

MY SISTER IS A PUBLISHED AUTHOR!!!!!!!!

To say that my sister, Becky, and I are close might be the understatement of the year. It’s hard to begin to describe the depth of our sibling relationship. The reality of the depth comes from the valleys that we’ve been through together. We endured broken relationships, painful losses, school challenges, and constant change. We navigated some hilarious phases like Jinco jeans (her) and Nike earrings (me). We journeyed through her countless surgeries that seemed to never end and both helped each other move more times than we could count. We even got arrested together (another story for another time)!

We had some great times along the way as well! Coolio, Montell Jordan and Garth Brooks on full blast in my high school 85 Blazer. Graduating college (eventually) and finding spouses...
