Start Strong 2026.
Before we rush into a new year, it’s worth looking back.
What worked. What didn’t. What grew… and what got ignored.
Real goal-setting isn’t just physical.
It’s emotional, mental, spiritual, physical, financial, work, relationships, and fun.
We all have strengths.
We all have gaps.
Growth starts with awareness—and usually with a conversation.
If you want help setting goals in any area of life for 2026, I’m opening up goal-setting sessions.
DM me and let’s start there.
One step. One plan. One strong year ahead. 💪

7 mile morning at Salem Lake.

Cold winter woods have a way of getting real quiet.
Quiet enough to listen.

Walking out here slows the noise and speeds up the good stuff—better circulation, improved stroke volume for the heart, and a gentle rhythm that lets the body do what it was designed to do. The uneven terrain wakes up the brain too—left and right hemispheres working together, balance, awareness, presence.

But honestly… this is also what I call a Higher Power walk.
When it’s this still, I can ask better questions—and sometimes I get answers. Or at least clarity. Or peace. And sometimes that’s enough.

If today feels heavy or loud, step outside. Bundle up. Take a walk.
One step at a time. Take care of yourself.

Much love. Be well.
You’ve got this.

Thinking of the Small Things as the Big Things

Grandiosity and shame are two sides of the same coin.
One inflates us.
One crushes us.
Both pull us out of the moment and into a story about who we “should” be.

In recovery, in fitness, in life — I’ve learned that when I set giant goals and don’t hit them instantly, I can turn on myself fast. That old perfectionism kicks up, and suddenly I’m living in the future or the past instead of right here, right now.

But just like in the gym, everything changes when you slow down…
and live one rep at a time.

When you treat each rep with intention, it compounds.
When you treat each small action like it matters, it adds up.
Progress becomes inevitable because you’re not waiting for some giant moment — you’re building it, piece by piece.

This is true everywhere:
Washing the dishes.
Checking in with your kid.
Saying no to something that drains you.
Taking the next micro-step toward a bigger dream.

When you think of the small things as the big things, you get to be fully present in your own life. You’re not waiting to “arrive”… you’re already living the path.

Be exactly where your feet are.
Do the next right rep.
That’s how we Ignite Our PurEnergy — one intentional moment at a time.

Friendships forged in iron stand the test of time.

I still remember our first workout together at ECU, when I was convinced I had found an actual minotaur to train with… the man was (and still is) a beast.

And I vividly remember the day you drove miles to stand by my side when I surrendered to drugs and alcohol — as well as being there at your wedding.

Time flies, and it’s been too long. Great having you in the gym today.

Love you, brother. As always, we keep growing together.

15 Years Clean and Sober Today.

Grateful.

So much has gone down in these 15. I know I have been present for growth personally, seeing my children develop into awesome young people, made mistakes… some big and some small, and had wonderful victories inside and out as well.

My recovery has definitely taken on many forms. I'm in more than one twelve-step fellowship… at about five years, life came out sideways, and I was introduced to parts of me that had to be addressed with more language and more tools. If you're in recovery and struggling in recovery, there are other resources and fellowships that can help. There is no shame in finding what works. I definitely needed the voice of recovery in other areas of my life that I could not get in just my first fellowship. That's just my story, and how it's worked out. I know to my core that if it was not for stepping away from drugs and alcohol — and staying away as a result of joining NA — none of that other work could be done.

I am humbled and grateful. I get it honest on both sides of my family tree. I know that ultimately, just for today, I am living proof it works, and there is moreto be do… 1 Day at a Time.

If you're struggling, don't hesitate to reach out.
You're loved,
No Matter What.

💜 Thanks to the MANY that have held me along the way.

Love ya.
