Serve For A Purpose, Not A Paycheck!
Delivered by Jay Ly
What gets you out of bed every day? Is it to serve a purpose? Far too often, that is not the case. During this keynote, Jay takes you on a journey from dismantling improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in combat to dismantling stress in peoples’ lives. Reflecting on his time living too close to the edge, going hands-on IEDs in Afghanistan, risking everything—nearly losing everything, and deciding to make a change, Jay delivers actionable lessons to implement into your life right now. By positively identifying your purpose and living for it daily, you will become a better steward of your money and YOUR last name! Ultimately, you will become a better leader, a better spouse, a better friend, and a better human being.
Executive Coaching
The Journey
The Executive Coaching Program requires a minimum of six months. Coaching is a marathon rather than a sprint! We will schedule monthly, bi-weekly, or weekly accountability sessions to propel you forward along your personal growth and development journey.
You will adapt to changing habits while shifting your mindset and behaviors. Your actions will align with your values and personal mission statement. The choices you make will serve the S.M.A.R.T. Goals you set.
The primary objective of our sessions is to focus on one significant or a few small growth areas that you believe will improve all your relationships. Through this process, you will learn and experience what it takes to take charge of YOUR last name, creating momentum and transformation into a better leader, spouse, friend, and human being. You will unlock your potential, serve your purpose, and truly LIVE FREE!
Financial Freedom Coaching
The Live Free Series
Forever change your relationship with money, and learn what it takes to truly live with financial freedom!
We will get to your core to learn what makes you tick, and WHY you do the things you do.
This journey begins by establishing a baseline personal finance assessment and immediately beginning the education and training phase of the program, also known as
“Strategy Phase.”
Strategy Phase consists of four masterclasses (All 60-minutes in duration)
I. Calibration | II. Core Values | III. Risk Management | IV. Actions On
Coaching is an ongoing conversation where we provide encouragement, guidance, and honest feedback, as you pursue your personal financial goals. Our responsibility is to provide content, insight, tools, wisdom, framework, ideas, and feedback. Your responsibility is to move from awareness to action and accountability.
One of the best ways to grow yourself and others is to understand your personality and what naturally drives you. When you recognize your strengths and weaknesses, you can give your best as you work with people around you.
We are Servant Leaders only when our actions inspire the behavior of others.
As leaders, we are responsible for intentionally adding value to those who depend on us.
Many people fail to realize that financial problems are the root cause of stress and anxiety in their lives.
Does your team exist to collect a paycheck, or do they serve for a purpose?

Our Values
Freedom is doing the things you love, with the people you love, when you want to, as often as you wish.
