Dear Friends and Family,

As 2025 draws to a close, I’m filled with gratitude reflecting on this year’s adventure. Life has been a beautiful mix of challenges, growth, and unexpected joys.The biggest shift came with my career at WinCo Foods. Starting on night shifts as a freight stocker, I quickly moved into a Manager in Training role—a true blessing! The ESOP ownership model has me excited about building long-term equity while serving our community with affordable groceries. The team spirit is incredible; everyone’s friendly, dedicated, and truly cares. I’ve learned so much about leadership, inventory, holiday setups, and helping customers find exactly what they need. It’s rewarding work that aligns with my values.

On the personal front, I’ve cherished time with my three amazing kids (now 8, 11, and 12). From Halloween trick-or-treating to Christmas decorating magic, their laughter and wonder remind me what matters most. Co-parenting continues smoothly, and I’m grateful for the support from my wonderful parents—they’re my rock.

This year also reignited my entrepreneurial fire. I’ve poured energy into America’s Holding Company—my vision for time-based equity and generational wealth. From refining the structure to launching sponsorship tiers and dreaming of Christmas bonuses in shares, it’s been a labor of love. The blog remains my daily anchor, documenting the journey for me, my kids, and anyone chasing big dreams.

I’ve embraced new routines (morning blogging!), downsized for financial clarity, and even paused dating to focus on stability—knowing the right connections come with time.

Through it all, gratitude has been my guide. Life’s unpredictability is its joy—embrace the ride!

Wishing you a Merry Christmas filled with love, light, and hope for 2026.

With heartfelt thanks,
Justin Stephens
