The Voice in Your Head. Taming the Inner Critic with MS.

Training Through a Flare. What I Do When MS Hits Hard.

Fueling the Fight. My No-BS Nutrition for Energy and Strength.
Eat like a warrior. Think like on. Move like one. Let’s be real—most nutrition advice out there is either wrapped in pseudoscience, selling a miracle cure, or so complicated it’s useless.

Most people run form pain. I’ve learned to walk straight into it. Because the truth is—pain isn’t just part of this life with MS…it is the life. And if you don’t learn to work with it, respect it, even sharpen yourself against it—it’ll break you. I’ve been there. Those nights where it feels like electricity Continue reading

Lessons from Failing. Why I’m Grateful for Every Loss.
I’ve failed more times than I can count. In the gym. In the ring. At work. As a father, a partner, a man. And yeah—I’ve failed with MS, too. I’ve pushed too hard. I’ve ignored the signs.
