I was standing in front of the mirror, fixing my tie, minutes away from going live on CNBC. Then my phone rang. In a matter of minutes, my entire world collapsed. In this episode of the Rollercoaster Podcast, I step out of the interviewer's seat and into the most vulnerable conversation of my life, sitting down with Aleksei Archer of the Morning Glory Podcast to share the story of the day that split my life in two. From selling my company and living what most people would call the dream to a sudden medical emergency that nearly took my wife from me, and did take our unborn child. I talk about the moment I got the call. The panic of being miles away and completely helpless. The trauma that doesn't leave you. And the night I genuinely didn't know if I was going to lose everything that actually mattered. But there's a turning point in this story. One that quietly rearranged everything. How I see life, how I hold faith, and what I now understand about what's truly worth protecting. This episode is about love, loss, trauma, and the perspective that only comes from almost losing it all. If you've ever moved too fast, chased the wrong things, or taken the people you love for granted, this one will stop you in your tracks. 👇 Which part of this story stayed with you the most?
