Love & Go | 12 Truths for a Blessed Life with Frank Kelly

On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with Frank Kelly, CEO of Kelly Benefits and author of Love and Go: 12 Powerful Truths for a Blessed Life. Frank’s story is rooted in family legacy, faith, and a commitment to generosity, growing a business alongside his brothers from humble beginnings to a 500-employee company, all while keeping love as its cornerstone.

Frank shares the inspiration behind his new book, revealing how a spiritual awakening at Cornell University transformed his perspective from religion to relationship. He opens up about distilling four decades of “notes and quotes” into twelve life-changing truths, including the power of God’s word, the importance of praise, and the impact of giving generously. Through personal stories like helping a friend heal family relationships through forgiveness, and the blessings that flowed from choosing faith and praise, Frank models how simple truths can be hard to live out but radically transformational.

Whether you’re seeking deeper purpose or practical ways to align your life with faith and love, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that living a blessed life is about loving fully, going boldly, and investing in what truly matters. You’ll walk away inspired to seek truth, give generously, and experience the joy of sharing love with others.
