Why I Never Left (And Still Look 23...ish)

Sonoran Chiropractic – The Backbone of Our Community

Taylor and Kevin from Sonoran Chiropractic joined our networking group back in 2023—and they’ve been helping both bodies and businesses thrive ever since.

Whether it’s offering fresh marketing ideas, showing up to events, or lending their support behind the scenes, these two consistently go above and beyond.

If you’re dealing with back pain, posture problems, or just need a tune-up, these are the folks to call. And thank you both for everything.

This Photo Got People Talking…

I got my real estate license 25 years ago after a horrible experience buying my first home... and I’ve spent every day since trying to be the opposite of that agent.

I recently shared the below picture to the Group, and a few people said I haven’t aged—how kind of them. I’ll take the compliment—and the lighting.

You know what keeps me young? Community. Watching a local business thrive. Seeing someone find a lifelong client or friend. Helping a family sell or buy during a major life moment—that’s what fuels me.

25 years in, and this is still the part I love most—being the one people turn to when it’s time to move. Thinking of buying or selling before the holidays? Let’s talk timing—because now might actually be the sweet spot. Hit reply and let’s run the numbers.

Schmillen Law – Not Your Typical Lawyer (And That’s the Point)

Let’s be honest—"Come get your divorce!" isn’t exactly the vibe at a family event like Valleypalooza. And James Schmillen of Schmillen Law gets that.

But that hasn’t stopped him from supporting the community in big ways. Instead of setting up a booth with awkward signage, James has repeatedly chosen to donate his vendor spot to other local small businesses, and we appreciate him!

He’s a family law attorney who understands that being part of the community isn’t always about being front and center—it’s about showing up in ways that matter.
