  • Fantastic Insights

    How does he keep coming up with new lessons each and every week??? I don’t know but the fact that he does is amazing because I learn so much from him. Thank you for all that you do. Highly recommend this series to anyone. Also, what’s great to see is Phil’s personal journey through all of this. He’s not just teaching me, he’s teaching himself and it shows. Keep it up.
