Why I started this Community
For almost 20 years, I worked inside the finance industry.
This required that I stay licensed by recertifying every few years. I had conversations with people at every stage of their financial life and presented complex financial products to blue-collar workers, millionaires, and C-suite executives.
Over those years, I generated hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue for the firms I worked for, and I trained hundreds of new financial professionals to do the same. Eventually, I became a Vice President at a well-known company.
By every measure that's supposed to matter, I had it figured out. The title, the income, the security. I had built the exact life I was told to want.
Then one day I was sitting in an annual review, and I realized, “This company doesn’t value me as much as I have sacrificed to stay here, waking up at 3 AM almost every night in a panic, and dreading Monday mornings. I am sick of building someone else’s dream instead of my own.”
So, 6 years ago, I sat down to make the biggest financial decision of my life: I decided to engineer my exit from the corporate world.
And I froze.
It didn’t make sense. I had the education; I had talked to hundreds of people about the same kinds of decisions, and all of a sudden, I was like a deer in headlights.
I ran the numbers over and over, paid other people to validate my decision, and for the next five years, I kept talking myself out of it.
It took me far too long to see what was actually happening: it was never the numbers holding me back. It was my own doubt.
The moment I understood that the floodgates opened. I built a system, put my head down, and executed on it one step at a time. Things happened fast after that.
Now, I am out. I work as a Ski Patroller in the winter (a lifelong dream of mine!), and I built this business, betting on a vision that was mine, and mine alone.
I know how hard it is to decide to bet on yourself and quit corporate. I've been there.
My goal has become to find people just like I was: people who have the income, maybe even done the math, and still can't pull the trigger.
That’s why I created The Exit Engineers to help you build financial CHOICE that, in turn, gives you the SPACE to make life-changing decisions that can completely remake you. This is where I hand over everything I learned from 20 years of being on the inside of the Finance industry.
I'm glad you're here, and I can't wait to watch what you build.
