This is the credenza behind my desk.

Built for Freedom. La méthode Sherpa. A wedding photo. A cartoon of my family. A "Wanted" poster my team made of me. A chalkboard that says "Calm. Outcomes. Courage. Passion." Notes from my kids. A Nespresso machine. A Solpak mug.

Some founders keep their personal ...

This is where I work.

Two desks. A whiteboard. A cork board full of notes. A credenza covered in family photos and old artifacts. A green wall. Big windows.

It is not minimal. It is not aesthetic. It is functional.

Every object in this room passed the same test: does it help me think, decide, or rememb...

My team named my office.

Every office at Solpak has a name on the glass. A word that describes the person inside. Mine says #Historien. The historian.

I did not pick it. They did.

They picked it because I am the one who remembers why we started. The one who tells the stories. The one who connects what ...

This is the building.

Twenty years ago, Solpak was a phone, a laptop, and a kitchen table. No warehouse. No team. No clients. Just a problem I thought I could solve better than anyone else.

I was right about the problem. I was wrong about almost everything else. How long it would take. How many times ...

This is the desk. All of it. Chalkboards. Books. Hat. Mic. Guitar. LEGO family. Files box. Sherpa gear. Two small frames about challenges and leaps.

Nothing here is accidental.

I spent 20 years building Solpak into a business that grows without me in the room. 600 clients. 15 team members. Continuous ...

Two white chairs. A small table. A glass of water. No screen in sight.

This is my home office. No clients sit here. But my wife does. My kids do. Friends do. Some of the simplest conversations happen in these chairs. Some of the deepest ones too.

This corner is not for work. It is for thinking.

Behind ...

A grey fabric box with a leather handle and a handwritten label. Files.

Nothing fancy. Nothing digital. Just a box.

I like that it has something vintage in its design. A reminder that success in business has been happening for decades, if not centuries. Before software. Before dashboards. Before AI. S...

A straw fedora with a black band. It sits on the middle shelf between my chalkboards.

I am a hat guy. Always have been. Maybe because I am going bald like my father did. Maybe because he often had something on his head to protect from the sun. Probably both.

Some things do not need a business lesson. ...

I do not play well. I play anyway. That is the point.

This guitar is more than 30 years old. I bought it for myself when I was 20. It was the first real gift I gave myself with my own money.

It sits next to my desk. Most days I pick it up at the end of the day. A few minutes. No audience. No purpose. ...

This shelf has three categories of books. Money. Relationships. Stillness.

Dave Ramsey taught me about debt and discipline. Never Eat Alone taught me that every relationship is a compounding asset. The Dhammapada taught me to sit still when everything in my business was screaming at me to react.

I did...

On the left: a framed poster that says CHALLENGES. A skier making their way through rough terrain. A bump in the road is either an obstacle to be fought or an opportunity to be enjoyed. It is all up to you.

On the right: a black card. Leap and the net will appear. A gift from Sylvia and Massimo.

I hav...

Four little LEGO figures on a shelf. A blonde. A guy with glasses. A kid in black. A girl in a California shirt.

My family built this. My kids picked the pieces. They put it together and handed it to me.

It sits at the top of my desk where I can see it every day. It is the first thing I notice when I ...
