ASCENT LIFE

A curated resource for living your best life.

Ascent Life is a weekly email sharing key insights on personal growth and success.


Why?

If you’re not growing, you’re dying. I’ve always been fascinated by those who have “taken risks” to become successful. I’ve taken risks myself. At the age of 25, I quit an executive position at a Fortune 50 company to pursue a finance and real estate career where I learned I hated sales. The stock market and mortgage collapse of 2008 didn’t help.

I started multiple blogs and brands, one of them turned into ownership in an outdoor adventure retail store for over ten years before we closed our doors in 2023.

Currently I run a podcast production company where we specialize in arts and adventure podcasting, along with producing podcasts for multiple non-profits in Utah. It’s a fantastic job connecting me to fascinating people. I love it.

But, my true passion is curating content around subjects I’m interested in: Personal growth, success, wealth, philosophy, and big life questions. So as I read self improvement books, scour the internet for personal growth tips, take courses, and discover inspiring social accounts, I’ll share them here at Ascent Life.

The idea is to build a community of like-minded individuals around self improvement, living with purpose, vitality, wealth and success, without forgetting the things in life that really matter: our family & friends, and being grateful for what we have—this life.

If that’s you, subscribe. Together, we’ll not only better ourselves, but collectively we’ll better the world.
