What an amazing first quarter of 2026! As always, thank you for the amazing support at all the events so far, and I love your comments on social media! This issue of The Momentum Marker recaps my amazing personal and family wins that have taken place so far this year, as well as some fun upcoming shows and launches. There is so much to share and much more to come in the months ahead.
Let’s get after it!
This issue of Momentum highlights
Personal Momentum and Wins
One of my personal discipline mantras: If you aren’t measuring, you’re managing chaos. If you want to increase momentum, you must track and report it.
- Marriage/Family: This is a huge year for Chantel and me. We will both be turning 55, and it’s also our 25th anniversary. BOOM! I couldn’t be more thankful. That said, we have booked a couple of epic trips to Europe for some amazing adventures, and I cannot wait to share them with you. The cool part is that, as we travel, I have integrated a couple of speaking and hosting events to serve business owners in the UK. Chantel and I’s favorite place is the UK, and I cannot wait to share what’s in store.
- Parenting: From January to February each year, we are in Orlando with Disney doing the Festival of the Arts. Last year, we planned that right after we finished the six weeks, we would travel back to Orlando to celebrate Lil’Noah’s 21st birthday in “Epic” fashion (pun intended) by doing a private VIP tour throughout the whole theme park. We were blown away by the hospitality, food, and hosting we received for him. Our dear friends joined us in making the day special. We wrapped up the trip with two days at the Four Seasons in Orlando, featuring lazy river conversations with the kids, incredible food, and downtime to reboot after an intense 6 weeks. I have had some great days with Griffin as we go out to eat, walk on the beach, and travel together for work. I couldn’t be more grateful to have her integrated into the family business. She has been crushing it in terms of our marketing and brand strategy. One of her social posts went viral, capturing the attention of major companies and leading to an awesome collaboration opportunity.
- Investing in Learning: I prefer to read a few books well and deeply rather than a volume of thin books. This year has been The Cure by John Lynch, which has really brought great clarity and confirmation to my approach to how I see God and myself as his son. Since I was a kid, I’ve been a big-time performance-driven achiever who wanted to grow my brand and my family. Except I later realized how much of a self-centered consumer I was of the blessing. The Cure reveals a refreshing confirmation of what it means to believe and trust while letting your “doing” be an act of worship instead of a means to an end. This book is the antidote to the performance drug that high-achieving business owners take.
- Wins in Training: I am so pumped. Literally. Lil’ Noah and I have been training at our gym in Newport Beach. It’s a special place for me as it’s been there for 50 years. It is truly remarkable to be with your son, training and helping him to develop into who God has designed him to be. Griff has been doing great with Peloton, and Chantel is crushing it with pilates and pickleball. We love getting out together and playing.
- Men’s Fellowship: What an incredible few months of fellowship. I have been hosting these events for nearly six years, and it’s so incredible to see these men doing life together at the deepest level in life, marriage, family, and career.
- Mentor Momentum: I am grateful for the men that God has placed in my life. These men have journeyed with me for the last 30 years of my life. They are great sounding boards and exemplify what it means to lead well by serving.
- Generosity Portfolio: We are delighted to share the impact of our collective efforts on the children we rescue and support through Acres of Love. We continue to expand our support for entrepreneurs going abroad to spread the hope of Christ, using their businesses as a mission.
Podcast Momentum
- Creating a Life by Design Podcast: I sat down with my lifelong buddy David Monnig from Coast Airbrush in Anaheim, California, to discuss the launch of our coaching community for custom painters around the globe. Check out this episode of “Beyond the Brush” to sit with Dave and me as we unpack how all this came about and the “why” behind it all. Click here to watch the full episode.
YouTube Momentum
- Noah’s Origin Story: My team compiled my entire life story and turned it into a 6-part biography series you can watch to learn how I went from starting on a bike and selling art door to door at 16 to now running numerous companies and initiatives. You will discover how to use your business as a mission to help spread hope. This is one of my most meaningful projects to date, and we put a great deal into this. You can watch here.
Noah Fine Art Momentum
- Festival of the Arts 2026 Recap — Noah/Scooter: Each year, as we come to a close, I say to myself that it can’t get better than this. And each year it does! This was one of our most successful FOTA events! We kicked it off with a special release to celebrate 10 years of the Festival of the Arts with my newest piece, “Out on Our Date Night in Walt Disney World!” It was non-stop fun from the moment the art booth tents flew open! Scooter and I also created a little mini series called “Scooter and Noah Taste the Festival of the Arts!” It was a blast! You can check out all three episodes on my Instagram channel HERE! We came. We ate. We signed. And we can’t wait to return to do it again.
- Coast Creative Community Coaching Launch: Over 30 years ago, I met Dave Monnig. He owns Coast Airbrush in Anaheim, California. Our friendship grew into a lifelong partnership, equipping custom painters through workshops, education, and hands-on instruction. We launched The Coast Creative Community Coaching to a global audience this last year, and it has been so amazing to see these creatives collaborating and helping the global community thrive. Each month, we host online coaching calls to help each member with their business and family life. I hosted Dave on my podcast to discuss the launch. Click here to watch the full episode.
My Fast and Furious Car is Now a LEGO!
- My 2 Fast 2 Furious LEGO car from the Fast and the Furious movie hits the shelves! 20 years ago, I hand-painted the pink Suki Car for the Fast and Furious movie “2 Fast 2 Furious.” It continues to gain publicity in the car culture across the globe. Recently, LEGO released a version of the car, and it was also released at Walmart. Crazy. Crazy.

- Life and Business Vital Signs Audit: I recently had so many requests from business owners and creatives to sit down for a strategy session that I created a new product called the Vital Signs Audit. In this 90-minute online audit, I walk individuals through a personal and professional life audit to help them maximize their time, craft, career, and money. Each of these sessions produces massive clarity and confirmation for those who attend. Participants say it’s one of the greatest investments of their lives to clarify and establish their True North and purpose.
- Discovery Session Day: A few years back, I started testing a framework with my clients. This framework produced incredible results, helping organizations, ministries, and teams architect their brand and business model to drive impact and income for years to come. The session is held in person or virtually and is one of the most powerful investments a team or individual can make throughout their career. I personally guide you and/or your team through the process. Learn More
