Finding Joy in Our Unique Gifts

This holiday season, I’ve been reflecting on love and community, inspired by an incredible video my wife and I recently watched. It featured the legendary Dick Van Dyke, who just turned 99, alongside Chris Martin of Coldplay in a heartfelt tribute.

At the end of the video, someone off-camera asked Dick if he wanted Chris to compose a song on the spot. Dick, with his signature charm, requested a song about old age. To everyone’s amazement, Chris immediately created a two-verse song with a chorus—on the fly.

Watching this, I felt a twinge of jealousy. As a musical person, I don’t have the ability to make up brand new songs out of thin air like Chris Martin. But almost as quickly as that thought came, I was reminded that God gifts us all in different ways. While Chris can "hear" a song in his head and sing it without hesitation, I can envision automations in my mind’s eye and build them with confidence.

We’re all uniquely gifted. And I love using my gifts to help business owners who are incredible at running their businesses but might lack the technical know-how to streamline their operations. That’s where I come in. Whether it’s teaching someone how to build their own automations, or partnering with them long-term to take their business to the next level, I find joy in helping others succeed.

Since 2017, I’ve been helping entrepreneurs leverage tools like Make.com and Zapier to simplify and scale their businesses. Through my YouTube channel, personalized support, automation coaching community, and done-for-you services, I’ve made it my mission to empower business owners to focus on what they do best—while automation handles the rest.

If you need an automation partner who can see your processes and workflows clearly before a single click is made, I’d love to help. Let’s work together to turn your vision into reality.

Wishing you a holiday season filled with reflection, community, and the confidence to use your own unique gifts.

Merry Christmas! 🎄
