I’m Jorden—a writer, fitness model, and real estate investor—on a mission to break down what actually works. Through fitness, philosophy, and fiction, I help people cut through the noise and build a life that’s strong, meaningful, and fully their own.

Let’s get to work.

Im based in Denver, CO. You can find me around town either at a cafe or a gym :).

After starting my career in analytics, I spent several years living abroad, studying german and immersing myself in philosophy. I came back to the US to do real estate, and after achieving financial freedom, I’m turning my focus outward — I want to help people learn how to turn freedom into flourishing.

Flourishing isn’t just about having options—it’s about knowing which ones matter. I demonstrate how discipline, virtue, and thoughtful decision-making transform optionality into a meaningful life. Subscribe to my newsletter or reach out directly if you’d like to learn more.

“Optimism is, in the first instance, a way of explaining failure, not prophesying success. It says that there is no fundamental barrier, no law of nature or supernatural decree, preventing progress. Whenever.” - David Deutsch
