That fear sent Pete on a lifelong search for what it actually means to win — with God, with your marriage, and in the marketplace, all at once.In this conversation, Pete shares:Why he refused to work with his dad and instead bought a 100-year-old jewelry company in 1997 — which became a software platform running employee recognition programs for Southwest, American Airlines, and major oil companies worldwide, before selling to a French public company in 2017- The low point that led him to Bob Buford and the ”halftime” philosophy — and why he decided not to wait until success to retool his life- How one honest conversation with his wife Rainey (”go have that conversation”) reshaped his priorities around family dinners- Why he calls himself Rainey's ”water boy” — and what that has to do with love languages and doing the dishes- Managing a family office and general partnership for 20 family members across four generations, and what it took to earn his mother and sisters' trust- Building a brand-new school for under-resourced kids in Fort Worth — his own hands-on experience of what he now encourages other high-capacity leaders to do through the 100X ForumHis mission statement: to bring well-informed guidance to high-capacity leaders and thriving organizations by helping them prioritize their lives and achieve excellenceThis podcast is sponsored by Anchor Investments, whose mission is to build America's most generous real estate company.
