Stoked to have these people apart of my tribe.

Collaborating with @ryanplowery and @doc_amen to do some 🧠 research and how exogenous ketones impact our brains via some SPECT scans/images. We both will be sharing more via our blogs on our YouTube channels (link is in my bio) as well as our social media outlets and @ketogeniccom.

I’m collaborating with @isaacstegman @marywengh and @kaizenprocoaching to bring the world of keto to high performing executives and business owners so they can perform better in all area of life.

Isaac and I are getting ready to launch an app with his business course and I’m bringing my 12-week video course to his platform to be able to share with all of you that are interested in adopting a ketogenic lifestyle whether you’re looking to improve your brain’s health and/or performance, increase energy, drop some extra body fat, improve inflammatory issues, and so on.

I’m incredibly grateful for these people having my back and to be reciprocating value at the same time.

Look out for updates on @ryanplowery and my trip to do SPECT imaging our brains and the release of my keto course on the @kaizenprocoaching platform.

Another dream of mine come true. To take dad to a Celtics game at the TD garden in Boston after flying in unexpectedly. Even got to bring Brandon Christie as an early birthday present. 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Heading back home to NC for a few days before another incredible trip. This next trip coming up after being home for a few days is to be apart of some amazing research of the 🧠 then to speak at FitCon in SLC.

Often times, we all over complicate things in life that can be approached with a simple and clear perspective.

This is true for nutrition. Despite what most media, influencers, etc. say, keto isn’t hard, it’s sustainable, it’s enjoyable, and it’s not depriving when you have the right education, awareness, and support.

It’s all context and most for he time the reason say “keto doesn’t work” or “keto sucks” it due to a few things: lack of understanding fat adaptation timelines, lack of electrolytes, not enough fat, too many carbs/“net carbs”, too much stress, not enough sleep, and other areas of individualized context.

Here, we have eggs topped with a little parmesan, sautéed broccoli with grass fed butter, and chopped up bacon. All topped with some @redmondrealsalt and spices.

Keto is a tool or a lifestyle. It’s a CHOICE to consume certain foods. Some foods hurt us and some help us. At the end of the day, if keto helps with one thing beyond your health it has to be the consciousness to what certain foods do to our brains and overall health.

Be PROACTIVE rather than REACTIVE when it comes to your life. Keto is just one of the many passions I share that have helped me in my life tremendously.

No excuses.

What’s your excuse for why you can’t eat well or why keto “doesn’t work” for you and how can I help?

Be YOU and forget the hate that comes from others insecurities to be themselves.

Since I was a little kid, I’ve always loved dressing apart. This is a leftover photo from a shoot @jciake and I did for @hartter.manly.

We were going for a new approach to combine fashion, business and BMX now that I’m a business owner, speaker, and soon to be author.

I wanted to combine all aspects of my life and interests in one image capturing many stories in one.

Are you living the life you envision for yourself and being YOU?

2 years with this woman and they have all been amazing!

Starting out in very weird places in our lives, we met as athletic trainer (@jciake) and BMX athlete (me😜).

We were both in and out of relationships the first year we knew each other but bonded over months of Jackie helping me with my ACL rehab.

We became closer as time went on and we both left the relationships we were in and had overcome some pretty intense obstacles in our lives.

Ironically, we started dating after Jackie took a job in Florida after her position at the bike park was no longer able to be funded.

Monthly flights to and from NC or FL were implemented and the time spent together was always amazing. Less than a year of dating and we moved Jackie back up to NC and in with me.

Over a year of living together and we have shared some amazing up’s and down’s but have always shared an immense amount of respect and love for one another.

I’ve never had someone challenge me, support me, love me, have fun with me, travel with me, be creative with me, adventure with me, share with me, and appreciate me for being me as much as Jackie has and I am beyond grateful for my life choices leading her into my life.

Here’s to you being the best, the memories yet to create, and all the love and abundance we have to share as the days go on.

I’m beyond thankful for Jackie in my life and I wouldn’t be who I am today or where I am today without her.

“The internal journey is all about the death of our identity, and the rebirth of our essence.”

Standing next to these beautiful, talented, strong, courageous, and loving human beings is the manifestation of all of our choices along our very unique, individualized, yet similar paths in life.

We have all become the hero of our own journeys and made massive transformation leading us to health, happiness, and success in our lives.

What’s rad, and none of us set out solely to do, is that we’re all in a place of service to others fueled by love and passion.

We’ve taken our “mess” along the way and turned it into our messages, our missions, and our new purpose within our lives.

The power of all 3 of our stories is profound. The desire to share our stories in an effort to change perspective in others so they can take new action within their life is even greater.

I’m beyond grateful to have connected and formed meaningful relationships with these two and am excited about the future holds for all of us and YOU reading this.

Don’t ever stop doing what YOU love for anyone else and don’t ever love YOUR life for anyone either. We’ve all fallen into the safety net that is the “traditional route” brainwashed that it’s “safe” or our of fear of failure and/or judgement.

I’ve found that by staying true to my own desire, dreams, and beliefs for my life has led me to some wonderful people and places around the world and now I’m doing what I thought was the impossible and helping others along the way.

Stay true to YOU and take accountability for your life.

If you’re unhappy, make a CHANGE. The 3 of us sure have and continue to do so and so can YOU.

This is what I call “Healthy Keto”, aka, real food keto.

Variety of saturated and mono-unsaturated fats, quality proteins, and non-starchy high-fibrous veggies.

Oh, and, of course, @redmondrealsalt topping it all off.

A lot of common concerns my clients run into come from lack of fibrous veggies, not enough variety or volume of fat (depending on the part of the journey they’re at), and lack of electrolytes (salting food and water can help).

It’s all context and highly individualized but aiming for a ton of non-starchy and fibrous veggies at each meal along with varieties of fats and proteins can be an amazing place to begin and maintain once you go through the specific motions to see what works for YOU and how YOUR body responds depending on YOUR goals.

Just because “so and so” can eat “keto breads” doesn’t mean it’ll work for YOU or maybe not just yet.

Doing the WORK as focusing on the daily habits and changes that align with your goal is key. Once you reach your goal you can play with things but until then, you gotta get dialed in and consistent.

That combo always pays off and it bums me out so many people lol for “hacks” and shortcuts rather than doing the damn work.

I love sports because there is no shortcut. Just talent, hard work, persistence and patience, and it shows. Same for business, no hacks to success. Just passion, hustle, and patience.
