Mess To Messgage

I turned what I thought was my “mess” into my message today with a higher purpose than myself.

My WHY has transformed from self, fueled by spite and anger to prove others wrong, to purpose.

A purpose to serve and support others so they can empower themselves to become the healthiest, happiest, and most successful versions of themselves.

I do this because I don’t want people to suffer and fall short of their potential in life as I was in my past.

I believe I had to go through what I went though to learn and make changes because I was stubborn but also because I was able to overcome the adversity and share my successes as a form of teaching.

All I’ve learned up until this point as a 30 year old has been distilled into these 3 principles I love sharing:

1) perspective is essential and gratitude is the key to abundance.

2) health is internal, not numbers on the scale or what’s on the outside.

3) our reality is a manifestation of our choices.

Audit your choices and if they’re serving you or not.

You’re Not Your Past

Our identity isn’t defined by our past. Our identity is defined by who we choose to be in the moment and the choices we make in the now.

If we feel as tho our identity is dependent on the outcome, then there is no way we can perform at our best.

When I stopped focusing on the outcome, rather I set goals and focused on the actions in the moment, I found a lot less resistance in my life with more success.

Don’t get wrapped up in outcomes or suggestions from external sources.

Design a life you envision, put in the work, build the belief, and don’t ever give up!

Simplicity & Consistency

Keep it simple and consistent. That’s how you create sustainable success.

Doesn’t matter if it’s Keto, sports, career, relationships, etc.

We as human beings love over analyzing things because we’ve been conditioned to think it’s gotta be complicated in order to achieve our goals.

Fact of the matter is, and this is from my personal experience in all areas mentioned above, it’s really damn simple.

Set a goal, put the work in, foster the believe YOU CAN do it, don’t give up, be patient, learn what’s working or not working, become self-aware of what you’re good at, find your tribe of support, and stay focused on your WHY!

That’s it. If you have that equation, you’ll succeed.

When I began my nutrition and holistic health journey, even before Keto was as a passion or on my radar for that matter, I got too wrapped up in the complexity of it all.

As anyone who’s looking into health if any kind knows, it’s complex!

As time has gone on and I’ve experimented and coached others as I continue to educate myself, I’ve connected with some of the best Keto experts in the world. They all have an immense depth of knowledge for Keto, nutritional science, and health, and all same the same thing.

Kermit simple!

Simple can taste delicious, be efficient for your time, and nourish your body at the same time letting you crush your goals while feeling and looking the best ever.

Power of Sharing

I believe the power of sharing your WHY, or your beliefs, can lead you to meeting and connecting with extraordinary people like Michael Bustin 💯

The fact that we can share to an unlimited amount of people via social media and the resistance people show towards that fact is mind boggling.

It wasn’t as clear to me in on the beginning in regards to how much value sharing, story telling, and combining the two via the internet could have for others and myself.

I learned the power of sharing in 2010 as I shared for the first time that I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Fast forward & years, sharing in an effort to bring others as much value as possible has led me to meeting incredible people like Michael as well as many more and experiences and opportunities.

What is your perspective on story telling, connecting, and bringing others value?

Love Over Fear

Fear is just a thought and thoughts can be changed with perspective. Which perspective you choose is YOUR ChOICE.

“You will only ever have two choices: love or fear. Choose love and don’t ever let fear turn you against your playful heart” – Jim Carrey 💚❤️

Far too often do I hear people give me all kinds of excuses as to why they are unhappy, suffering, and/or didn’t/don’t follow their dreams or passions in life.🙈

Bottom line, it’s your perceptive.🧐

It’s because of fear. Fear of failure or failure again, fear of the unknown, fear of what others may say or think, fear of even succeeding and what that’ll do to our life, and so on. I’ve been there, many times. Any successful person has.

The difference?

Gratitude, love, and a choice to not let fear dictate your life.🌀

Whether it’s a health and fitness goal, a business/career goal, personal and family, sports, etc. related goal, prescribe is everything!💯

I encourage you all to figure out what it is you love to do most, WHY that is so, and how to make that a regular habit in your life while ditching the excuses. Life’s way more pleasant that way. 🙏🏼

Fuel Your Soul

I believe we all MUST find something to do in our lives that fuels our soul.

That’s what BMX has been for me for more than half my life. Just typing that is crazy!

17 years now I’ve been on a BMX bike & it’s crazy how much the decision to pursue BMX as a career has taught me, the places around the world it’s brought me to, the people & experiences it’s led me to, & the ability it has to clear my mind & bring a smile to my face.

More importantly, it’s saved my life in more ways than one & is what’s helped me find the ketogenic diet & lifestyle that I believe can be a massively beneficial tool or a new way of living for most of us today as it has been for me & my clients.

It’s not a magic pill as most of us look for these days. I’m not 100% pro-Keto or 100% against other healthy approaches that do work for others.

My priority of adopting such a lifestyle is for the health, protection, & healing of my brain thanks to those fat burning by-products called KETONES. It’s a 100% personal choice.

My story and journey with Keto isn’t a weight loss story, although my body composition has never been better as well as easier to maintain. My journey with Keto represents my belief of health being internal.

Along the way, I’ve become passionate for sharing what’s helped me with others & I continue to do so because I want all of you to become the healthiest, happiest, & most successful versions of yourself.

We All Have This Choice

I believe we all have the same choice in life when things go poorly or well.

It’s a choice that no one can take from us.🙏🏼

It’s a choice in perspective. To choose to see life as glass half full or glass half empty.

To choose to become a survivor rather than a victim.💪🏽

Two quotes I love are:

1- life doesn’t happen to you, it happens for you.

2- life is 10% what happens to us and 90% now we react.

That said, if you’re unhappy for any reason then I’d check your perspective. 🧐

Are you a survivor or a victim?

Keto Doesn’t Require Tons Of Fat.

There’s a misconception that Keto requires a ton of fat at every meal.

When you’re first beginning your ketogenic diet & lifestyle journey, you’ll be adding WAY MORE fat than most are used to consuming, which brings mindset obstacles, such as conditioning to believe fat makes us fat, to the surface.

That’s entirely false, while in the right context. When starches, sugars, & high-levels of carbohydrates are absent, fat allows our brains & bodies to thrive.

Again, while starting out on a ketogenic diet there will be an adjustment period that requires you to fuel your body with fat to satiety, thus meaning you’ll most likely be eating a fair amount of fat. But, once fat-adapted, you start to notice shifts in hunger, energy levels, mental clarity, weight removing, & improved sleep & digestion & no longer require a ton of fat at every meal.

The adaptation process takes time & is different for each individual.

The other piece of context is “what is your goal”? If you’re trying to maintain weight, or bulk, once fat-adapted, then you’re probably going to need a lot more fat at each meal (or in total for the day) then someone who’s trying to remove weight & body fat.

This meal represents effort to cut some body fat % as I’m fat adapted= not so much fat🔥

It’s all in context to the individuals goals & needs. There’s no one size fits all here.

Thermometer or Thermostat

I believe we all have a choice.

A choice to become a survivor or a victim. React to life or be proactive in life.

I love how Jim Kwik puts it as comparing a thermostat to a thermometer. A thermostat controls the environment and a thermometer reacts to an environment.

I know we can’t control our lives but we can control our choices, which will manifest a reality one way or another. Or choices in food, thoughts, and physical activity.

We can choose to be proactive and prevent unwanted realities, or we can live our lives in auto-pilot and react to events as they come. I choose to follow a ketogenic diet & lifestyle for my 🧠, choose to educate myself on a daily basis, choose to serve others and help support them, and choose to hold myself accountable for my reality.

I was living my life as a thermometer and just reacting to my environment until I was 21 and told I was going to die from a massive brain tumor taking residence on the left half of my brain. It took that life or death situation to audit my choices, foster self-awareness, and make the choice to become empowered over my reality.

I share not to brag, but to inspire you all to take action as a thermostat for your life rather than reacting to your life environment/reality as a thermometer.

I don’t want others to suffer as I did and be forced to react to a situation. I want your choices to come from move rather than fear.

BMX to Inspiration

It was a dream to become a pro BMX athlete one day and do this trick I grew up seeing Dave Mirra do.

A version of this trick (performed on the ramp to the left of this photo) actually saved my life when I fell and hit my head and needed an MRI. Backstory leading up to that point, I’d been in and out of the doctors office complaining of headaches, vision loss, and vomiting while also requesting a scan but denied and prescribed pain pills told “you’re young, in shape, and just have headaches”.

Fast forward to that crash I mentioned and the MRI that followed, who knew. I was diagnosed at the younger age of 21 with a massive brain tumor taking over half my brain and residing on my optic nerve and wrapped around an artery in my brian.

I’ve been able to transcend my dreams and inspire action in others around the world with nutrition, fitness, and mindset shifts from my experiences like what I just shared above, and I’m extremely honored and grateful for that fact.

Had I not set out to create my own path in life, who knows how many regrets I’d live with today and how many lives I may have not changed for the better.

Today, I live with 4 brain tumors (2 more brain tumor diagnosis since the original surgery) and have used Elekta Gamma Knife to shrink 2 and ketogenic diet and lifestyle to stabilize the other 2. I don’t compete anymore (personal choice) but I still ride at the same level (seen here), coach others, and am a motivational speaker.
