Ten Talents 02-15-25 with David Brickner

In this episode of Ten Talents, host Keith Koo sits down with Larry Hill, founder of Cal Pro Research and the Domos Project, for a deeply personal and reflective conversation about integrity, identity, and calling.

 

Larry shares his journey from a successful career in technology and business into a season of deep questioning—what he describes as a midlife reckoning that ultimately became a spiritual awakening. Out of that journey, the Domos Project was born.

 

Rather than chasing outward success, Larry explains how God redirected his focus inward—toward understanding identity in Christ and living with integrity as a whole person, especially in the marketplace.
