Fingers Crossed: Are You Patiently Waiting on What the Feds Will Do Today?

Later this afternoon, you’ll see plenty of posts about what it means for consumers. I’ll add a quick update to this article as soon as the decision lands.

But despite the chaos (or maybe because of it), I felt more compelled than ever to do something grounded. To do the right thing. Not because it's always profitable—but because I believe in doing right by people. And yes, I like sleeping well at night.

After years in this industry, I realized I was stuck in a loop—a place where I couldn't fully be myself or build the kind of culture I believe is needed for long-term success. So, I decided to stop trying to fix something broken and instead build something better. A place where doing…
