I'm betting that YOU CAN TOO!

From Fat and Miserable to Fit and Traveling the World
I'm ready to help you CRUSH IT in 2017 and beyond!

It doesn't seem too long ago that I was broke, miserable and overweight. I went through one of the toughest times in my life...getting divorced, becoming almost dependent on alcohol, and fat!

That was my story before I started my fitness journey in 2010, and I haven't looked back. It's been a crazy ride, but looking back....I wouldn't change anything. I am much happier, more healthy and fit, and have even become an Entrepreneur in the process, now I'M BETTING THAT YOU CAN DO THIS TOO!

Are you ready to start a healthy lifestyle that can bring you more success and happiness? I know you are! =)

I will be hosting an exclusive, GOAL-DRIVEN ONLINE health and fitness accountability group starting JANUARY 9th, 2017.

Goal-setting with my daughter is a ritual

My Smoky Mountain Family Getaway Vacation before the WILDFIRES!!!

Smoky Mountain Getaway - Cades Cove

My family and I just recently got back from Gatlinburg, TN. We were there from November 21 - 25th, 2016, and just missed the wildfires that devastated the city of Gatlinburg and parts of Pigeon Forge. It was pretty sad to know that the places that we visited on the video were damaged, and some completely destroyed. I pray for Gatlinburg...


My family and I were happy that we were able to experience this beautiful place before it was destroyed. If you would like to see how beautiful the Smoky Mountains are and parts of Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge is, take a gander at our family video, and let's pray for a quick recovery.

TOP 5 Reasons Why People Do Not LIKE or COMMENT on Your Facebook Posts

Top 5 Reasons Why People Do Not Like or Comment on Your Facebook Posts, Get more Facebook Likes, Beachbody Coach Motivation, Beachbody Coach Tips, Facebook Business Tips, Beachbody Coach Facebook Success
Having a beer in London, not caring if people LIKE my posts =)

Well, it's nothing new that Facebook is constantly changing their algorithms, so in return, your friends and followers are seeing much less of your content. Yeah, it's true...and one of the only ways to get the exposure that you had before is by placing ads and boosting posts =(. Hey, Facebook is a business, they need to make money just like you do! =)

As a business person, this kinda sucks, but as a non-business person (someone who doesn't rely or use Facebook for business) then I guess it shouldn't really matter unless you just like the attention =).

So here's the deal, I run a small internet company where I have a team of leaders who also their run own businesses. Some people call this franchising, and some call it direct-selling or network marketing. But who cares.....the point is that people in my line of work (and the general FB population) continue to complain about not getting enough LIKES and COMMENTS on their Facebook posts, so I just wanted to make a quick blog about "Why People Do Not LIKE or COMMENT on Facebook Posts".

Now just for the record, I'm no Social Media Expert, but I've learned a couple things, and this is what I've found to be pretty true.

TOP 5 Reasons Why People Do Not LIKE or COMMENT on Your Facebook Posts:

1.  THEY DIDN'T SEE YOUR POST - Yup, you know....facebook algorithms =)

2.  THEY ARE DISTRACTED WITH OTHER POSTS THAT INTEREST THEM - Look at that shiny object over there!! =)

3.  THEY ARE FRIENDS OF YOURS, OR FOLLOW YOU, BUT ARE ALSO SOMEWHAT JEALOUS OF YOU - These people just need to unfollow, unfriend, or just block you. They don't really like you, but for some odd reason, they still secretly want to stalk you =)

4.  THEY ARE WINDOW WATCHERS - You know, like channel surfing or going into your fridge every 5 minutes to see if there is anything new! #nope, just the same old stuff...oh wait, look..someone just bought a new house, I'm jelly!!! =)

5.  THEY DIDN'T LIKE YOUR POST - Do you post every little thing about your life? Are you trying to get attention? There are some posts that just need to be kept private, agree?? =) Oh, and people don't like to be sold, so try not to post things about products, or learn creative ways to share it with people!

Have you ever said something face to face to someone, and they said "no comment", well there you go....it happens on Facebook too =) Don't sweat it. You can't make everyone happy, and you shouldn't even bother.

My take on this whole thing:

Don't worry about people LIKING or COMMENTING on your posts. If you are worried about this issue, then you may have another issue that you might need to work on, just saying =) Yes, we as humans are all "reward-oriented" and we love to be recognized, but seriously guys....let's get back to our lives and just live a little. Try putting your phone or mobile device down for about 30 minutes a day. I'm sure that you will start appreciating life a lot more, and you'll LIKE not worrying about facebook =).

I'm expanding my Coach Team!

Watch Race Recap Video Below

That MUD tho!!! I filmed this 10+ mile lengthy and "tar-muddy" course which was held in Saraland, Alabama a few weeks ago, and I have to be honest, I am not a fan of mud, but that is one of the reasons why I love Spartan Race, they are all about getting you uncomfortable.

(How I film races around the world to benefit charity - How you can support this project)

Although I only filmed this event and did not race (like I have for almost 3 years now), I do run the course along with everyone else, this helps me focus on what the athletes are really going through and what they have to deal with (as well as still getting in a great workout). I feel that this is the only way to capture an event on video. Please enjoy my race recap video, and I hope to see you at the next one!

Chicken & Cauliflower Fried Rice - VIDEO

Chicken & Cauliflower Fried Rice - Video Recipe Below

I've always wanted to make this dish, so I finally made it happen, and it was DELICIOUS! Now don't get me wrong, I am not PALEO, I love my carbs, and I need it too for what I do...at least I find that I perform much better, but I do enjoy paleo meals.


I'm not going to write out the full recipe, it's pretty simple to follow from the video, and you do not need a lot of ingredients. You may have to go to a specialty health market to find things like Coconut Aminos. Anyways, enjoy it and feel free to contact me or comment below how you liked the recipe =)
Chicken and Cauliflower Fried Rice

I am trying to upload at least one cooking video per week, but sometimes stuff happens, so I may miss a week or so =), but I promise to stay as consistent. Looking forward to sharing some of my simple and healthy food art with you!

Battle Races New Orleans - 2016

Watch Video Below

So while most of the obstacle course racing world was doing as many laps as they could at the World's Toughest Mudder in Las Vegas, I was in New Orleans supporting a local event called Battle Races. Not that I didn't want to be at WTM, it was because I've been traveling for several months and filming a race every weekend, I just wanted to take a little break, and stick to a event that was nearby.


I've heard of Battle Races since last year and always wanted to check them out, and I'm so glad that I did. The race founders, a husband and wife team, really made the event what it is. I've filmed and participated in a lot of OCR and endurance events since 2011, and so it's pretty hard to impress me, but Battle Races was definitely a top notch event. Good people, high-quality obstacles, and a great venue.

Without further ado, check out the video that I created for them, I had a blast, and I look forward to seeing this race series grow in the following years!
