“A smooth sea never made a skillful sailor.” The hard seasons are the training ground. Turbulence builds judgment. Pressure sharpens decision-making. Resistance forces growth. If everything feels difficult right now, that’s not a red flag, it’s a development phase. Skills are forged in the chop, not the calm. Stay in it. You’re getting better. Be Curious. Be Confident. Be Competitive. Be Kind. #UnapologeticallyFraternal Much Love & Cheers. #Motivation #Leadership #Resilience #GrowthMindset #BeCuriousBeConfidentBeCompetitiveBeKind

Growth like this doesn’t happen by accident. Shoutout to Collin Bopp for an incredible accomplishment — being featured in Modern Woodmen’s Trailblazer magazine and earning 3rd place in new members is a clear reflection of his consistency, discipline, and commitment to serving others. In a fraternal organization, growth isn’t just a number — it’s a measure of trust. Every new member represents another family choosing shared values, shared purpose, and a commitment to strengthening the community they call home. Collin’s work does exactly that. By bringing people into something bigger than themselves, he’s helping expand the reach of our impact and elevate the standard for what it means to lead with intention. We’re proud to have leaders like Collin on this team — leaders who don’t chase attention but earn it through action. This is what being unapologetically fraternal looks like — building financial security in a way that strengthens communities, not just accounts. Be Curious. Be Confident. Be Competitive. Be Kind. #UnapologeticallyFraternal Much Love & Cheers. #ModernWoodmenofAmerica #TeamMWA #MWACareers #CelebratingSuccess #Congratulations #NextLevel #GrowthMindset #ThisIsMWA #ThisIsUsMWA

This is what happens when compassion turns into action. Shoutout to Piper’s Purpose! 🎉 I’ve had the privilege of knowing Claire Olson personally — she’s a neighbor, a powerful mother, and someone who lives out her values daily. I’ve even had the chance to support one of her sons through his own early entrepreneurial venture, which makes watching this mission grow feel even more meaningful. Earlier this year, Claire and I visited and talked through the heart behind Piper’s Purpose. What began as carefully prepared blankets and baskets — simple, powerful gestures meant to comfort families in moments of unimaginable loss — has grown into a force for education and support for medical professionals right here in our community. By coming alongside caregivers, Claire is helping ensure compassion, awareness, and understanding are woven into care when families need it most. This is purpose-driven leadership at its best — rooted locally, led with heart, and creating ripple effects far beyond what most people ever see. We’re excited about what’s possible ahead and grateful to walk alongside such meaningful work. 💙✨ Be Curious. Be Confident. Be Competitive.

Here’s to showing up strong, leading with purpose, and making this year one that truly matters. Be Curious. Be Confident. Be Competitive.
