Skin in the Game is a place to think clearly about ambition, resilience, courage and what it really takes to win in life without losing yourself.
Here you’ll find reflections on work, life and love. On leadership, mental health, masculinity, creativity, and the challenges of running a high growth business, while becoming a man you can be proud of.
Sometimes that means writing about business. Often it means writing about doubt, relationships, pressure, or the moments of venerability.

I write from lived experience building 8 figure businesses, but this isn’t a newsletter about tactics, hacks, or hustle culture. It’s about the internal game that sits underneath the external one.
Much of what we’re taught about success ignores the cost. Burnout. Disconnection. Consistent doubt. Quiet self betrayal.
Most people don’t fail because they lack talent. They fail because they’re playing the wrong game.
This is about learning the real rules of success, building a personal playbook, and staying in the game while enjoying the ride. This is an attempt to explore a better way forward and to share it with the world.
If any of this resonates, you’re in the right place.
