Build a more intentional, creative, and self-assured life
LifeAwesome is my ongoing experiment in designing a life that actually works—blending family, creativity, systems, and modern tools so things feel lighter, not busier.
What is LifeAwesome?
I'm Dan. I've spent years in tech, building products, businesses, and systems—while raising a family and trying to live on purpose instead of autopilot.
LifeAwesome is where I share what's working (and what isn't): the experiments, the automations, the frameworks, and the stories behind them.
Systems over hustle
Small, repeatable actions that compound over time
Practical creativity
Tools and tactics that actually ship
Family first
Building a life that supports what matters most
The Framework
The four pillars of a LifeAwesome
Every post, system, and resource maps to one of these four areas
Self-Assurance & Personal Growth
Frameworks, stories, and practices to help you feel more grounded, capable, and confident in everyday life.
Creativity & Entrepreneurship
Systems and experiments for building projects, businesses, and creative work that actually ship.
Family, Adventure & Meaning
Traditions, trips, and small moments that make life feel rich, connected, and memorable.
Tools, Tech & Optimization
Apps, automations, and gear that remove friction and help your life run more smoothly.
