Summary

This past week we celebrated the life of one of my closest friends and former podcast guest, John Ruhlin, who we lost very suddenly at the young age of 44. John left behind his wife Lindsay, and four daughters, Reagan, Blakely, Saylor, and Layton. Please pray for his family and loved ones during this tragic time.

To honor John and his legacy, we wanted to pull his episode from our archives and republish it today. Whether it's your first time listening, or if you've heard the episode before, there is so much practical wisdom shared on how to love people and cherish relationships that it's worth listening again and sharing with those you love most. Please enjoy the podcast, and God bless you all!

Get ready for a fascinating conversation with John Ruhlin!

Today, John Ruhlin joins us to discuss Giftology, the science of gift-giving.

John Ruhlin is the founder of Giftology and the world’s leading authority on maximizing relationships and loyalty, both personal and business, through radical generosity.

He is also the author of the best-selling book “Giftology” and a highly sought after keynote speaker. John and Giftology have been featured in and on Fox News, Forbes, Fast Company, Ink Magazine, and the New York Times.

A short list of John’s many clients include: Raymond James, the Chicago Cubs, and Caesars Palace.

Even more, John is a loyal husband, a loving father of four, an amazing friend, and an all-around stellar human being living out a Born to Impact life firsthand.

In this episode, we discuss:

-Why gifts are so important
-How to build your relationship plan
