Well men, I'm kind of an impatient person. So I'm gonna kick this off and open up and lay it out there. I have a home inspection company that I started in 2007. I grew it to be one of the largest inspection companies in Utah. between June and Oct of 2023, for a variety of reasons, all my employees quit and I started 2024 with just me and a Filipino VA. 2024 had lots of long hours and I ended 2024 adding 3 new inspectors and 2 admins and a clear path to success (I thought). My daughter's friend committed suicide early 2024 and that sent her through major challenges, often talking suicide and self harming. I blame it on the stress of me working long hours and my daughter's state that by the end of 2024 my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time. We went thru that in 2018. I wasn't ready to go thru that again. I was absolutely broken as I contemplated facing 2025. I'd seen @Jared Johnson post about a men's group he was doing and I'd recently met him at some realestate events, so mid January 2025, I stopped in his office and that led to many transformative experiences. This year, 2025, has ended amazingly...all things considered. My wife is pretty much thru treatments and prognosis is good. My daughter (now 17) is more emotionally aware than most adults I know. My business will end 2025 35% better than any year prior. Yet I'm broke, financially having reinvested every cent into rebuilding a company I don't enjoy any more. I can run what appears to be a successful business, but the financial side where that translates to providing for my family to give them what they want, I'm failing. And I'm stuck. I've been working a lot on me this year and I'm very pleased with the progress, but like I started with in this post, I'm an impatient person. I'm not the person I was a year ago, but now I'm stuck keeping the machine going to provide for my family, but now I've been shown the man I can become. There's so much more I want to do with my life and for my family, but you can't pay medical bills and mortgages with hopes and dreams. My daughter will be off to college in a year. I'm not connected to my son (14) as I'd like and I feel myself repeating many of the dynamics from my childhood and I want to break those generational patterns. A big contributor to my wife's cancer is her emotional well being and I want the time to help her heal, especially with all I've learned this year. Where am I not enuf? Being able to meet my family's financial needs.

1. Zachary M. 2. Utah County, UT 3. I've always been drawn to things that move fast, cars motorcycles, anything I could get my hands on really. Mechanical knowledge seemed to flow through me effortlessly from a young age, or maybe it was just my circumstances. This resulted in me doing this for a living. Feels to have changed now and my path drastically shifted. I feel my purpose right now is to figure out how to take the intersection of skills and things that I know and extend them out towards people that need it most. 4. I plan to expand on this more as we discuss as a group but we're getting close to our first meeting and I wanna make sure I'm on for that. I've been a part of Jared's local group here in Utah. I have so many goals and so much capacity for progress. I think my overall goal here is to grow and hopefully inspire others to do the same.

Hey Men, Jared here. I wanted to introduce myself. I’m in a season of life where I’m simplifying, telling the truth, and taking full ownership of who I am and where I’m going. I’ve built businesses, started things that worked and things that didn’t, and learned that real strength comes from clarity, humility, and consistent action. I don’t have everything figured out and I’m not trying to pretend I do. What I am committed to is showing up honestly, doing the work, and surrounding myself with men who are willing to do the same. That’s why I’m here. If you’re in a place where you know there’s more in you and you’re ready to step into it, you’re in good company. Glad you’re here.

I'm looking to move through the resistance in between me and what I'm capable of. It's a pleasure and an honor to be here, I'm really excited about what we can create here together. Thanks for being interested enough to show up and see what it's all about. If you ever have any questions, I'll be happy to help provide any kind of support, logistical, emotional or otherwise. Thanks for being here: Let's Expand!!
