Walking through Vision Expo, you see it everywhere.
Frames by Tom Ford, Babe — they’re not just glasses.
They’re statements: “You matter. You’re seen. You’re successful.”

But here’s the paradox:
We don’t buy lenses — we buy the vision of ourselves we want others to see.
We don’t choose frames — we choose status, confidence, belonging.

And yet, with every swipe of the card comes the whisper:
“What if tomorrow I can’t afford this?”

Luxury and fear live side by side — even in the same purchase.
And that’s why the topic of money, success, and image is so powerful.

Saying goodbye to LA after a beautiful Labor Day weekend 🌴☀️ I soaked up the sunshine, breathed in the ocean air, and just enjoyed the simple moments — laughing with my friend and seeing the endless smiles of my child. Those are the memories that stay with me the most

My dad used to say: the most important thing is health, the rest can always be earned. And this little getaway reminded me just how true that is

A few moments from the island where you can’t sit still. The nature invites you from anywhere you put your eye on. Just can’t get enough of ocean, fresh air and watching your kid by the water.
P.S. we don’t use air conditioning in the room - what’s unheard in Vegas

Right now, tucked just behind the noise of the conference floor in Vegas, something different is happening.

Away from the booths, the handshakes, and the hustle, we’ve built a quiet little space — a private podcast studio where real conversations are unfolding.

A founder sits across from a longtime client, sharing the story of their first deal.
Two industry leaders dive into what’s next for their field, unfiltered and off-script.
Laughter, strategy, honesty — it’s all being captured, right here, in the moment.

The energy of the conference is still in the air, but in this room, time slows down.
This is where ideas breathe. Where content gets created without feeling like content.
And long after Vegas lights dim, these stories will keep working — in people’s feeds, in their minds, in their businesses.

This is what we came here for.

Spending rainy Sunday on a kayak, challenging youth to race

Emerald Cove: one hour away from Vegas, not far from Hoover Damn, park on Willow Beach

Deadlines, drafts, quick replies.
As an entrepreneur, there’s always something to do.
Always somewhere to be—even if it’s just your desk.

But today I paused.
Just for a second.

Sunlight hit the floor.
I grabbed some water, stepped outside.
My kid ran up, laughing. We stood there in the light, no rush.

It reminded me—
The best ideas don’t always come from the grind.
They come from space. From stillness.
From being present, even for a moment.

Sun.
A real break.
Family.

That’s where the reset happens.
That’s where the energy comes back.

We just wrapped up the busiest season of events in Vegas — and wow, what a ride!
This year brought some fresh energy with two new shows: Traveling Show and Shop Talk.

Both totally surprised us with next-level floor entertainment and some seriously creative decor. Vegas really doesn’t sleep, and neither did we!

Already excited to see what next season brings!

Confession. He came with it, heavy and raw, like a storm that had been brewing for years.

Have you ever had a stranger unload their entire soul in front of you? First, you’re stunned—words crashing over you like waves, each one more revealing than the last. Then, the shock melts into silence. You sit there, absorbing the weight of someone else’s truth. You don’t interrupt. You don’t judge. You just listen.

By the end, you’re both in tears. It’s not about what they said, but how their words scraped against something deep inside you—something you didn’t even know was there.

That’s how it was in yesterday’s interview. He finished, stood up, and walked away, leaving behind an invisible storm cloud hanging in the room. I just sat there, staring at the empty chair…

I still remember the first time I filmed him. He was just a kid—full of energy, curiosity, and that spark that made you want to keep the camera rolling. He could barely stay still, but somehow, every shot was golden. Back then, it was all about capturing the moment, something for his family to look back on and smile (and to get a good grade at school for trying myself as a director).

Fast forward to today, and there he is in front of my camera again. But now, he’s all grown up—a confident young man, ready to take on the world. It’s wild to see how much has changed, yet how much has stayed the same. That same spark is still there, but now it’s mixed with purpose and ambition.

This time, it’s not just about memories. It’s about helping him tell his story, build his brand, and connect with the right people. That’s what I love about what I do—creating to make a difference.

Seeing someone grow and being part of their journey? That’s the real reward. And honestly, it’s moments like these that remind me why I picked up a camera in the first place.
