WHY THIS NEW YEAR IS DIFFERENT!

Welcome back to Life By Design 360. It’s Friday—our space for stories of businesses that quietly won through membership and subscription models.

As we begin the New Year, here’s a powerful truth: many of the most successful companies of the past 20 years didn’t look impressive at first—and that’s why most people overlooked them.

They weren’t built on viral moments, massive funding, or overnight success. They started small, grew patiently, and scaled with purpose.

Throughout 2025, our Friday episodes explore who truly won—and why. Today’s episode connects those stories to one reality: the same model that built lasting businesses is becoming essential to personal financial security in the next 20 years.

There are very few, if any, advisors that specialize in helping you to get through a layoff and to retirement at max speed like I did for 12 years when one of the largest outplacement companies in the world brought me in to help their clients.
