Stay connected ⚡“This book feels like a blueprint to build the man I was meant to be.”
“This was one of the most intimate books I've ever read.”
“You really captured your presence in the pages like you’re having a conversation with the reader through every essay.”
Excerpts from the book’s Advance Praise.
The free living workbook and 12-week Step Up program turn reflection into daily action. Name what matters, choose one step, keep an honest record, and return to the work.
We're also building the Still ⚡ Building app, a dedicated home for the Brotherhood, Inner Circle, and The Table. The app is in development.
Get updates ⚡The subject is life. Motorcycles are one of the ways I live it. The road, the gym, the table, the hard conversations, the people, and the mortgage business all belong here.
Personal stories, lessons, adventures, and the experiences that shape a life.
Stories worth preserving from people worth remembering. This is not a show. This is an archive.
The people, places, and moments that change the road ahead. The story decides where it belongs.
Strength, health, discipline, brotherhood, and the work of continuing to build in the second half of life.

Some stories happen on motorcycles. Some happen in the gym. Some happen across a table. Some begin with loss, friendship, mortgage business, family, or a conversation that changes the direction of your life.
They are all part of the same life.
A rider. A builder. A place. A doctor. A mentor. A conversation. A moment that changes how you see what comes next. Mile ⚡ Markers follows the people, places, and moments that change the road ahead.

“You will leave knowing something about another person, and maybe something about yourself.”
People enter this work through every part of life. Mortgage clients. Riders. Friends. Family. Health professionals. Business owners. People met on the road. How I know somebody gives the audience context. Their story determines where it belongs.
Long form conversations about the experiences, mistakes, losses, relationships, and moments that made somebody who they are.
Stories Aaron is inside of. People, places, and encounters that leave a mark and change what comes next.
Strength, health, discipline, brotherhood, longevity, and continuing to build while there is still time.

At this stage of life, strength is not about pretending to be 25. It is about building a body and a life that can keep doing the things that matter for decades.
The feed is where you scroll past people. The Porch is where you sit down with them.
The private Living Life Out Loud group is a place to go deeper than a post ever allows. Whoever you are, whatever you are working through or building toward, the door is open.

I serve as Vice Coordinator for Motorcyclists of Central Oregon, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Some of the most meaningful work we do is about taking the relationships built around motorcycles and putting them to work for people in our own community.
The Teddy Bear Run, Toyz for Kidz, and other community efforts are part of Living Life Out Loud too. Show up. Help where you can. Leave something better behind.

Twenty plus years of home loans have introduced me to an incredible number of people and stories. The mortgage business still pays the bills, funds the miles, and helps make Living Life Out Loud possible.
If you are buying, refinancing, or just want a second opinion, you work directly with me. No call center. No handoffs.
Need a mortgage or just want a second opinion? Start a conversation with me. Not buying yourself? A referral helps fund this work too.

“You hold the attention of the reader and are quite an articulate story teller.”
No one has arrived. Keep doing the work physically, mentally, personally, and in service to other people.
Calculated. Deliberate. Measured. Move with purpose without confusing recklessness for courage.
Matched pace. Matched strength. Building alongside people who carry their share.
Still capable. Still sharp. Still useful. Aging is not surrender.
Still ⚡ Building, Speed ⚡ Safely, Equally ⚡ Yoked, and Dangerous ⚡ Old Man are more than slogans. They are the philosophy, the way, the partnership, and the destination.
The merch store carries the pieces that put those ideas out in the world.
