129: Keeping It Simple: Small Habits That Build Strong Families with Jono Allen
Can you build wealth, grow your career, and still be fully present for your family?
Too many fathers feel like they have to choose between being successful at work and being intentional at home. In this episode of The Invested Fathers, Kenny sits down with Jono Allen to challenge that idea and explore what it looks like to align faith, finances, and fatherhood by embracing the power of keeping it simple.
Jono is the founder of Larnach Capital, where he helps investors build wealth that elevates people, strengthens families, and creates thriving communities. After spending the last decade in corporate banking and finance, Jono made the leap into full-time multifamily real estate investing and now actively invests in more than 1,400 apartment units while helping others gain confidence in building long-term wealth.
But this conversation goes far beyond real estate.
Jono shares his journey from studying theology and believing he was called to be a pastor, to discovering that faith and business don't have to live in separate worlds. Together, Kenny and Jono discuss taking risks, following God's leading, and how simple, consistent habits often have the greatest impact.
From creating a weekly rhythm like "Saturday mornings with Dad," to keeping family devotions approachable and manageable, this episode is a reminder that fathers don't need complicated systems to build a meaningful life. Sometimes the most powerful investments we can make are the simplest ones.
If you're a father, business owner, investor, or simply someone trying to balance work, faith, and family, this episode will encourage and challenge you.

Jono's Favorite Recent Books
The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas
A powerful reminder that pursuing vengeance to its fullest extent ultimately leaves you feeling empty and sickened by its consequences.
Philip and Alexander by Adrian Goldsworthy
An insightful account of Alexander the Great and his father, Philip II. One of Jono's biggest takeaways is that the way we build and run organizations hasn't changed much in over two millennia. Organizations centered entirely around the empire-building ambitions of one person are often unhealthy, fragile, and ultimately unsustainable.
