@tomruiz reflects on his children's success.

Most families have stories, but few are filled with the grit, love, and laughter of Bryan and John’s dad—an immigrant, public servant, and master fixer whose journey from Cuba to building communities in South Florida is nothing short of inspiring. In this heartfelt and humorous episode, Bryan and John sit down with their legendary father, Tom Ruiz, to peel back the layers of a life defined by determination, culture, and unconditional love. Tom’s story is a blueprint for resilience—leaving Cuba with just twenty-seven dollars, working tirelessly in construction and public service, and ultimately building infrastructure that transformed entire cities like Miami Gardens.

From fixing broken steamers and flying tiny helicopters with his kids to embracing their truths with open arms, Tom’s life exemplifies how grit …
