An update on IMA 🙏🏼

The fall air drifted across my patio as I sat overlooking the Atlantic Ocean from my Jacksonville Beach home, just days before celebrating one year of sobriety. I was reflecting on the incredible journey of the past few months—how my message about early cancer detection and recovery had somehow reached over 100,000 people, how speaking requests were flooding in, how IronMind Advisors was becoming something I never imagined.

Then my phone buzzed.

The message was from someone I deeply respect—the same person who, exactly one year ago, had looked me in the eye and insisted I get help. Back then, I was drinking too much. My friends and family were genuinely concerned for my well-being. This person cared enough to push when I wasn’t ready to hear it.

But now, his words hit differently: “Keep doing what you are doing, you are great at this. You are going to have such a positive impact on so many people.”

I sat there, humbled and proud all at once. The same voice that once urged me toward recovery was now telling me to keep going with my mission.

A year ago, I made the hardest decision of my life: I asked for help. Four simple words that required everything I had. I went to rehab and sat in the front row of every session because I was that committed to my recovery. I fixed my situation because I finally understood that asking for help isn’t weakness—it’s strength.

Now, as I build IronMind Advisors and share my story, I want you to know something crucial: there are options. Whatever struggle you’re facing—addiction, grief, burnout, or feeling lost in your success—you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I’m here to pass on the life lessons that saved me, to walk alongside those who are struggling to get back on track. Because sometimes the person who once needed help becomes exactly who someone else needs to hear from.

Recovery isn’t just about getting your life back. It’s about discovering you have something powerful to give.

If you’re ready to explore your options, I’m here. Let’s talk.
