The BeatiDudes welcome back Jerry Sullivan, a legendary portfolio manager, quick-witted New Yorker, and devoted Catholic husband and father. After a compelling conversation on finance and excellence in his first episode, this follow-up dives into the heart of community, calling, and Christ.
Jerry shares what led his family to move from Boston to Dallas, how they found a deep-rooted Catholic community, and why he believes intentional living is worth the cost. Along the way, Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, Jeff Schiefelbein, and Jerry unpack neighborhood coincidences, regional accents, plane seat politics, and a few well-placed finance jokes.
When asked to offer one word of encouragement to men seeking holiness, Jerry’s answer is as simple as it is profound: Christ.
This episode is equal parts laughter and legacy, as Jerry reminds us that faith, family, and friendship are what carry us home.
Highlights:
• Jerry's relocation journey from Boston to Texas and the role of Catholic community in that decision
• The "divine coincidence" of his new neighbor’s Brooklyn roots
• Insights on parenting, men's groups, and professional excellence
• The power of speaking the name of Jesus as a prayer
• The value of humility, humor, and showing up for others
Questions to Reflect On:
• What does it look like to build a life intentionally rooted in Christ and community?
• How can we encourage others to pursue holiness at every age and stage of life?
• When’s the last time you simply spoke the name of Jesus in prayer?
