One of the most difficult things to do in all of life is being vulnerable, but vulnerability is the soil that cultivates real love and acceptance. While I often share glimpses of my life and story here and there, I have never really taken a dive into alot of the things that I have shaped me into the person I am today. Some of my closest friends know, but many if not most do not. From a poor (financially) upbringing, going off to college to work as a police officer and trainer. Through divorce, wanting to commit suicide, to leaving a job I loved to moving all the way across country to ultimately become a strength and conditioning coach, all of the little detours ultimately led me to my destiny of sharing Strength with others in all of its wonderful facets. The challenges and struggles have culminated in a philosophy I call the Ethos of Strength. It is about expressing and developing strength in a way that honors the entire person. "The body (person) is one piece" - Coach Dan John (emphasis added mine). I hope that this podcast and my story encourage you in the building of your "bounce" - resiliency and how through powerful conversation and the sharing of your story, we can help one another be the best of ourselves.
