This episode is a first! And a last! My special guest today is my son, Alejandro Villacis, and it’s his first appearance on the King’s Code Podcast. In the past, he has been my guest on my other podcasts, and I’ve been a guest on his podcasts, but this is the first time he’s been a guest on this feed. It’s also his last appearance before going to college.

I have had the privilege of being there to guide him for 18 years, and in that time he’s been my greatest teacher. I’ve watched him grow, and I’ve watched him shrink his waistline. This episode is our way of saying goodbye in the best way we can.

On this episode of the King’s Code Podcast, both Alejandro and I share the biggest lessons we’ve learned from each other, and he shares some of his hopes for the coming years.
