Welcome to episode 284 of the Grow Your Law Firm podcast, hosted by Ken Hardison. In this episode, Ken sits down with Ilona Anderson, founder of Carpe Diem Law Firm, a legal practice that helps businesses, employers, and employees navigate trademark protection, employment law compliance, and workplace disputes. Ilona is a trademark and employment law attorney. She helps entrepreneurs protect their brands and build compliant, high-integrity teams. With a decade of experience co-leading one of Florida's fastest-growing employment law practices, Ilona brings a unique dual perspective—having represented both employees and business owners. Known for her mindful and practical legal approach, Ilona empowers business owners to avoid costly lawsuits and protect what they've built. What you'll learn about in this episode: 1. Importance of Trademarking: - Trademarking your name, slogan, or business elements is crucial for business protection and growth. - Getting a trademark is relatively affordable, typically costing around one to two thousand dollars. 2. Hiring Offshore Workers: - Hiring offshore workers through agencies can simplify compliance with employment and tax laws. - Offshore workers can be managed by agencies, reducing direct employer responsibilities. 3. Distinction Between Independent Contractors and Employees: - Simply labeling a worker as an independent contractor is not sufficient for legal compliance. - The Department of Labor and IRS use economic realities tests to evaluate worker classifications. 4. Factors for Determining Worker Status: - Control over work schedules, tools, and independence are key factors in determining worker classification. - The totality of circumstances, not individual factors, is considered by courts in determining employee versus independent contractor status. 5. Resource for Determining Worker Classification: - Access to a guide for determining employee or independent contractor status based on the latest Department of Labor guidance. - Listeners can request the guide from Ilona Anderson or through Ken for additional assistance.

“All his days are full of sorrow, and his work is a vexation. Even in the night his heart does not rest. This also is vanity.” — Ecclesiastes 2:23That verse from Ecclesiastes reveals a painful truth: even a productive life can feel empty when the wrong purpose drives our work. Wealth on its own doesn't bring peace—often, it brings more pressure. But Scripture offers a better way.What's Driving All That Effort?It's easy to admire someone who plans wisely, saves consistently, and builds steadily over time. Our culture praises that kind of discipline as responsible and virtuous—and often, it is. But Ecclesiastes challenges us to ask: What's driving all that effort?In Ecclesiastes 2:18, the Preacher writes, “I hated all my toil... seeing that I must leave it to the man who will come after me.” He isn't condemning hard work—he's grieving that all he's built will one day be handed off, possibly to someone who won't value or steward it well.That's where sorrow begins—not in failure, but in success without peace. “All his days are full of sorrow, and his work is a vexation. Even in the night his heart does not rest” (Ecclesiastes 2:23). The more we accumulate, the more we fear losing it. What promised security only multiplies anxiety.What a striking image—someone lying awake at night, not from failure, but from success. The more he possesses, the more he worries. This is the irony of accumulation: it convinces us that security is just one more achievement away, while quietly making us more anxious the more we gain.Jesus' Warning About Bigger BarnsJesus echoes this same warning in Luke 12. He tells the parable of a rich man who reaped such a bountiful harvest that he decided to build bigger barns to store it all. His conclusion? “Take life easy—eat, drink, and be merry.” To the world, that sounds like winning. But Jesus calls him a fool. Why? Because that very night, his life would be demanded of him. Then comes the haunting question: “The things you have prepared, whose will they be?”What's even more interesting is the context of that parable. Jesus tells it in response to a man asking Him to settle an inheritance dispute. This wasn't someone who earned the wealth—he simply wanted his share, and maybe more. Jesus' warning is clear: a greedy heart isn't the only danger. An entitled heart is just as spiritually destructive. And that's exactly what the Preacher feared in Ecclesiastes—wealth falling into the hands of someone who didn't labor for it and may not know how to handle it wisely.We see this all the time in real life. Many financial advisors and estate planners will tell you that inherited wealth, especially when passed down without spiritual or emotional maturity, can do more harm than good. It can fracture families, distort priorities, and erode purpose. The problem isn't money itself, it's the absence of wisdom alongside it.A Better Definition of SuccessThat's why this lesson matters. You can save well, build wealth, and still feel anxious and unsatisfied—not because you failed, but because you expected your efforts to give you what only God can: peace, joy, and purpose.But here's the good news—Ecclesiastes doesn't leave us in despair. In verse 26, we read, “To the one who pleases Him, God has given wisdom and knowledge and joy.” The solution isn't to stop working or saving. The solution is to stop worshiping our work. Stop defining success by the size of your bank account and start defining it by your faithfulness to the One who owns it all.When we live as stewards instead of owners, the pressure lifts. We begin to see wealth not as a prize to secure our future, but as a tool to serve God's Kingdom. Accumulation loses its grip, and generosity takes root. That's when real joy begins.So, ask yourself today: Am I building bigger barns, or am I faithfully stewarding what God has already entrusted to me? Am I chasing peace through my possessions, or receiving it from the Prince of Peace Himself?Because in the end, peace doesn't come from what we've earned. It comes from who we trust.A Resource to Go Deeper: Wisdom Over WealthNow, if you're wrestling with these questions, we'd love to help. That's why we're excited to offer our brand-new Bible study based on Ecclesiastes called Wisdom Over Wealth.

Interview with Blaine Monaghan, President & CEO of Pacific Ridge Exploration Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/pacific-ridge-exploration-tsxvpex-tapping-into-bcs-copper-gold-amid-global-demand-surge-5754Recording date: 11th June 2025Pacific Ridge Exploration Limited (TSXV:PEX) has undergone a significant strategic transformation, joining the prestigious Fiore Group while pivoting from planned US expansion back to its core British Columbia copper-gold portfolio. Under CEO Blaine Monaghan's leadership, the company now controls 100% of five promising projects in BC's emerging critical minerals landscape.The partnership with the Fiore Group represents a major validation of Pacific Ridge's asset quality, bringing strategic advisors Rob McLeod and Ryan Waymark alongside crucial capital access and M&A expertise. "I think I found most gratifying over this past year where it's been really really hard to access capital in the market and you begin to question and wonder if your projects are as good as you think you are and that was really validation," Monaghan explained.The company's flagship Kliyul project has attracted significant investment, with over $14 million spent and 19,000 meters of drilling completed since 2021. Management targets an inaugural resource estimate of minimum 250 million tons, with recent geophysical surveys suggesting the majority of the system remains untested. Highlight intercepts exceed 300 meters of 0.8% copper equivalent, with mineralization extending to 600 meters depth.Pacific Ridge's RDP project presents exceptional high-grade potential, building on Antofagasta Minerals' discovery of 110 meters grading 1.4% copper equivalent - one of BC's best intervals in 2022. The upcoming $1.5 million drill program will test expansion potential from this discovery, with geological interpretation indicating a steeply dipping pipe system leading to deeper mineralization.The company's tight capital structure of only 19 million shares outstanding provides significant leverage to drilling success, particularly given the high-grade nature of targets in the increasingly active Stikine terrain. With regional momentum building around discoveries like Amarc's nearby Joy project and government support for critical minerals development, Pacific Ridge is positioned to capitalize on both local and global copper market dynamics.View Pacific Ridge Exploration's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/pacific-ridge-explorationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
