UNFOLLOW

This episode is a confession about the bad habits that kept Adrian broke, the stupidity of living rich, and his 10-year trek to financial fitness. He confronts his own economic ignorance and walks listeners through the money mindsets he had to unlearn in order to grow. Debt is not normal. Money is not evil. Hustle is not a shortcut to a better life, a budget is. Daryl digs into the money questions Adrian gets most often (how did you "pretire" at 41?) as they discuss debt, generosity, investments, and why the most important economic decision you can make is your spouse. Ready for a wealth check-up?

What is UNFOLLOW?

Good advice is often like fruitcake - we’ve all been given some but do we want it? Join us as we challenge seemingly good theories that lead to bad decisions in business, faith and family. We are Adrian Parker and Daryl Calfee, 40-year-old marketers fueled by a passion for humble, honest storytelling and recipients of master’s degrees in really dumb ideas. Luckily, we’ve worked with and for really amazing brands – Foot Locker, Nike, Moore & Giles Leather, Patrón Tequila, Kate Spade – while learning to embrace unconventional lessons. Normal ain’t working.

We’ll expose our scars and share stories on tough topics like making (and losing) money, juggling work and family, handling racial injustice, raising future adults and confronting Christianity’s hard questions. You’ll journey with us as we lead our teams, our businesses and ourselves by design, not default.
