Jeff is an absolute legend. He is someone whom I genuinely look up to as an example of Catholic entrepreneurship.

He is the managing partner of Undivided Life, a consulting firm helping business leaders live… you guessed it… an undivided life.

He co-hosts the BeatiDUDES podcast.

He and his partners also run a few other businesses with about 60 people on payroll.

Jeff is a gem. As you’ll see, he’s also full of amazing stories.

Catholic Founders is Sponsored by Paraclete VA

Consider hiring a Catholic Virtual Assistant through ParacleteVA.

Thousands of Catholic VAs in the Philippines want to work for a Catholic employer. Instead of working for morally questionable companies that do not view them with dignity, they want to work for you. They want to be part of a bigger mission.

If you’re looking for support as your business grows, reach out to me or Karen with what you’re looking for (dearcfpod@gmail.com) and we’ll connect you.

How it works: Pay a $500 finder’s fee when you hire, and $500 if you’re still happy with the hire 30 days in.

Change the life of a family today using ParacleteVA.

Core Lesson:

Run your business so that when you face God at the end of your life, you’ll be proud of what you built and how you did it.

Instead of trying to live a life separated into the various ‘compartments’ we often create. Live a life fully in alignment with the fact that you’ll one day face your creator.

This is especially important for entrepreneurs because to whom much is given, much is expected.

In other words, don’t settle for the standard level of expectations. Ask yourself genuinely, in the silence of adoration or on a walk… “What more could I do to be a builder for God while I’m here on earth, using the skills that He gave me?”

Please spend some time on this in the coming week and figure out what you’re going to commit to.

God Bless & Happy Building!
