As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER(TM) professional and founder of ClearMind Capital, he has spent years sitting across the table from families talking about goals, dreams, and the future. In those conversations, he noticed a common pattern. Many people quietly believe life will finally feel complete once they reach a certain milestone. Someday, things will slow down. Someday they will feel happy. Someday, they will feel at peace.At home, Nick's goldendoodle Ollie seemed to live by a different philosophy. Ollie had a way of enjoying the moment exactly as it was.Those two observations eventually became The Way of the Wag, a story about presence, authenticity, and the quiet realization that the peace people search for may already live inside them.Nick lives in Ohio with Ollie, who still spends most days wagging his tail and reminding Nick that the best moments in life are often the ones happening right now.","brand":"Clear Cove Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52160364871954,"sku":"9798295654541","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_7e0804a5-dbf6-44db-91b2-30cdc96f691f.jpg?v=1775055716","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/the-way-of-the-wag-press-paws-and-find-your-way-9798295654541","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
