Summer 2020: It was the middle of the pandemic, I had left my current job for another job in another state which fell through and we were living in a room at my In-Laws house. I was playing video games every day for at least 8 hours for the first two weeks we lived there. I was belligerent when anyone would try to talk to me about it and I was in a depressive state without even realizing it because I was escaping reality while playing video games.

 

It all came to a head when on the third week my incredibly patient wife approached me and asked what my plan was, what was I going to do next? She implored me to get back in to some kind of routine and at least go outside and exercise to keep my heart healthy because it was getting to a point where she was getting concerned. My pride and my ego fired off but I had no words to defend myself with. I had no leg to stand on. She was right. What was my next move? What happened to me? How did it get this bad? The very next morning I called a friend of mine that is a coach to help me get in shape. He sent me a meal plan and a running plan and off I went. I had no idea I would end up here but, I know that it is infinitely better than where I was. I went through massive physical and mental changes during the next 6 months. I went from weighing 265 lbs to 200 just from eating a specific amount of food and coupling that with a running routine. What I did not expect was the mental growth and mindset shift that would occur. What I thought I could never be in my whole lifetime, I was able to achieve in 6 months.

 

I became more alive, I was able to conquer more fear, I was able to change my thoughts before I spiraled out of control into anxiety. I felt more nimble, I felt more connected in my relationships. I had a sense of self worth, and a humble pride that I was finally proud to go in public and be myself. I had a taste of joy and acceptance like I had never known. I thought I knew what happiness was but I really had no clue. Through learning and growing physically, mentally, and spiritually and experiencing the benefits of coaching, it inspired me. Those experiences inspired me to get certified as a life coach and help people that were like me, that want to be somewhere or have some direction but just aren’t sure where to look. To the individual that is at a loss and feels hopeless. To the wanderer that feels unfulfilled in their day job and to the dissatisfied person that just wants more out of life.
