I’m known as an author, entrepreneur, philanthropist, Catholic apologist, and someone who had the good fortune to sell a multi-million-dollar company. I’m here to talk about something even more significant: the joy and transformative power of being a ‘LIFETIME MENTEE.’ You see, while many people focus on the role of the mentor, I’ve found tremendous value in being the one who asks for help—listening and learning…what a concept! The joy and fulfillment I've experienced as a mentee is something I wish to share with all of you, as it's a feeling that can truly change your life. It's a feeling of growth, connection, and being part of something bigger than yourself.
It’s to share the immense joy and benefits of being a MENTEE. In a world where everyone wants to be a leader, I’m here to tell you that there’s profound strength in being a learner. Embracing the role of a mentee has been the secret ingredient to my success, and it can be for you, too.
We often hear about the importance of mentorship, but we rarely talk about the flip side: the courage to ask for help, the humility to listen, and the wisdom to learn. These are not signs of weakness but the foundations of true strength. Being a mentee doesn’t mean you’re always in the passenger seat. It means you’re open to growth, ready to evolve, and willing to take the journey with guidance from those who have navigated the path before you.
One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is the willingness to learn from others. In doing so, you enrich your life and become a beacon of growth and inspiration for those around you.
Matthew 5:14-16
You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light shine before all, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
This is me shining my light!
Many of us need a life coach to improve ALL of our relationships, but the most important is with God. I’m a lifetime mentee who has benefitted from the wisdom of many. This collection of writings are universally proven biblical lessons shared as books, audio, and musical stories to lift your spirits and help you confidently lead your family in faith. They incorporate the Ten Commandments into my daily life. These books are like a mini-retreat to review how to look at life and live your best self from a man who did.
Despite facing numerous challenges, I always remained faithful. I made sure to create a protective barrier around myself and my loved ones. Although not always, I frequently incorporated Christ into my daily life, both physically and spiritually. I adorned my surroundings with crosses, pictures, Rosaries, and statuary, not for worship but as reminders. I even wore a brown scapular and gave Miraculous Medals to my family members.
My wife always found encouragement when I engaged in "church" activities, and she could join me in prayer when I did so openly. Regularly meeting with other men to discuss faith taught me the importance of continuously working on my parenting, health, education, and spiritual well-being.
Reconciliation served as an affordable form of therapy, although I wish I had done it more frequently. It inspired me to have meaningful conversations about life with trusted individuals. Thanks to my involvement in the church, I have had many friends who I can confide in without worrying about the consequences. In fact, at times, I felt as accountable to these men as my wife. Being a good man for my wife and children was a driving force within me.
