Welcome to Accidental Wisdom

Accidental Wisdom is where I turn life’s messes into stories. Think family squabbles, business blunders, faith detours, and the occasional midlife adventure. After years of running a company and faking my way through financial statements, I realized the best material was happening at home, in airports, and inside my own slightly neurotic head.

These essays are part comedy, part confession. They’re about parenting fails, boardroom missteps, and wondering why my leaky heart seems to be plotting against me. I’m not here to give advice—I don’t have any—but to share the laughs and wisdom hiding in everyday chaos.
