Dr. Ryan Lowery

Over a year ago I sent a DM to @ryanplowery with little to no expectation to get a response.

Less than 24 hours later I received a video message response full of love and positivity.

Fast forward a year and now we’re homies traveling the world speaking together and collaborating to share the keto conversation.

Ryan, just as all of my friends, feel as if we’re family that didn’t know it.

I consider Ryan a brother of mine and am honored to be in each other’s life and excited for all the change we bring to the world along with all the adventure and fun we have along the way.

Also, stay tuned for more content regarding our SPECT imaging with @doc_amen and @justpruvit exogenous ketones, among with content from @theaspi and all the fitness testing were gonna run me through.

Lance Armstrong

True or true?

Still have an email saved from 2010 post brian surgery that I wrote to @lancearmstrong and will share what that email container in person one day. I just know it!

Until then, I’ll just continue to share my gratitude and perspective I’ve gained from Lance over the years.

When I was originally diagnosed with the first brain tumor in 2010, I was on top of the world living out my dream as a pro BMX athlete beyond what I ever fathomed being possible.

When the diagnosis hit, I was a fresh 21 year old sitting in the doctors office ALONE waiting to get a report from a concussion I had received a few days prior. Never did I imagine I would be diagnosed with a massive brain tumor on accident.

I’m thankful it all happened and has worked out the way it has and Lance is one of many I have to thank for the mindset that was instilled in me on top of what my family, BMX, and my own journey instilled in me at a young age.

After a 6-hr surgery, 75 staples, and 16 stitches later, I was back riding in 5 weeks!

The fact that I’m still alive and able to love my life better than before is why I work so hard and share all I share.

It’s called GRATITUDE and PERSPECTIVE.

My Role In The Keto Conversation

Honored to play my role in the keto conversation.

The keto conversation is amazing and allows for anyone who’s passionate about a well formulated ketogenic diet AND exogenous ketones by @justpruvit which happen to be the FIRST and ONLY therapeutic ketones out.

What I have found helpful to others in regards to my efforts is walking and talking my truth and sharing my perspectives.

If you’re on purpose and just sharing your truth, you’ll inspire many and attract the right people, experiences, and energy into your life.

Honored to be apart of such a loving, persistent, and welcoming tribe of brain health warriors.

Coaching Jaka Remec

So proud of my Slovenia bro JAKA REMEC for taking 1st place at Fise Worlds and Pannonian Challenge back to back weekends recently!

We’ve been working together over a year now and to see the level of progression from Jaka on and off the bike is incredible.

He’s only 14 but rides and talks much older and is a pleasure to coach and hang out with.

His father is an example of how to support your children with their dreams just as my parents did for me.

For me to be able to mentor Jaka and share my experiences, perspectives, and knowledge with Jaka and his family is beyond a dream come true.

There’s no blueprint for BMX and the schools don’t yet credit or support BMX athletes. To be able to fill that void with my career experience and mindset/nutritional education means the world to me to be able to pass down to Jaka.

Can’t wait to see Jaka soon and train together again! Looking forward to what the futures holds for this talented athlete.

What You Didn’t Know About Me

Something only few truly know about me.

https://www.instagram.com/p/By0sgsZnWpO/?igshid=yobjxyxrbp3p

The last few years have been challenging to me mentally and physically as I took a another life altering risk to create the life I desire.

I decided to leave my “first love”, as @jciake refers to it (BMX) as, behind in all aspects as I chased a new dream to serve and support through my journey, education, and perspectives.

I didn’t have a plan, just a vision I have dedicated my life too.

A ton of adversity presented itself as soon as I made the choice to design a new path in my life.

Some say I’m “lucky” to live the life I do but I don’t believe in luck, just choices.

I come from no money, no upper hand, a ton of adversity against me, and no handouts. I have contributed to make the same choice, challenge the status quo and being told “no”. I’ve just implemented dedication, grit, perspective, mental and physical strength, and a perspective to never see “failure” as failure but opportunities to learn and grow.

Some may have said “no” to me, mocked me, or straight up doubted me in any fashion.

I thank all of you for your love and support, your hate, your faith, you doubt, and anything in between.

The feeling I get from going on stage, others sharing their gratitude for my sharing, and others opening themselves to me (a complete stranger) after I open myself up free of judgement and only love.

I’m grateful for the choices I’ve made and the life I live.

I do all I do to share the possibilities that we all live with and can take advantage of as soon as we decide to allow ourselves to live the life we desire and believe we deserve.

If I can, we all can and I won’t stop sharing that perspective.

Choose the belief in yourself and the life you desire.

Keto Claims

Keto is becoming a hot word, and for good reason.

The problem with this is brands are utilizing the complexity of the ketogenic diet, ketosis, etc. to their advantage to make sells. That said, just because they slap a sticker saying “keto” on their packaging doesn’t mean it truly is keto and is doing what we expect the product to do/support us with.

Thanks to @ketogeniccom, a proper certification program has launched going off not just the macronutrient breakdown, but the ingredients and biological impact on blood sugar, the brain, and the body at their lab.

If you’re curious of the keto benefits, shoot me a DM.

Thanks @ryanplowery for the info graphic.

Sad But True

This is pretty ridiculous but sadly spot on to the direction our society is heading.

What’s even sadder is the fact that many people don’t even have control over it because their brain is being hijacked by the biological affects of the foodlikeproducts our nation consumes on a regular basis, making up for over 75% of diets and is full of sugar.

I was once there but luckily for me, and my genetic predisposition, I stayed “in-shape” and was “healthy”. At least I thought I was healthy.

The inflamed state of my body from such a processed diet, along with mutated genes and specific negative genes activated, led me to being diagnosed with a non cancerous meningioma brain tumor.

Since then, I have made some serious changes to my lifestyle and diet and I share this with all of you to inspire each and every one of you to make just one small change to your lifestyle and diet that could have such a profound impact you’ll never fathom until experienced.

You don’t need to be perfect or do it all at once. Just adopt one small change here and there, and stick to it, and share what you experience with others.

@nutritionschool refers to this as the ripple affect and I have seen it take place on a regular basis in my life.

Love your body and treat it right. You won’t be disappointed.

Risk For Purpose

Crazy ride @david_goodall and I have been on the last 3 years as we both took a massive risk leaving our comfort zone and source of income to fulfill a new dream fueled by purpose to serve others.

The potential I find we were missing out on based on limiting beliefs is crazy to reflect on as we now manifest new dreams, and some, now that we have focused on our purpose, the life WE want and believe WE deserve, and continue to take non stop action even when times get tough.

It’s only a dream until it’s accomplished and if anyone that looks like you did anything you want, you have a blueprint. Take action, don’t give up, and be very very clear on what you want to accept in your life.

Homework

I always have fear.

The difference is, I do the work (mentally & physically) to choose how fear contributes to my life.

Fear doesn’t own me, it’s just a thought. I use fear to guide me towards the things I must do in order to fulfill my purpose. I choose the thoughts by doing the mental work EVERY single day.

It starts with my “morning manifesto” and continues with the choices in who I surround myself with and the content I choose to consume.

I’m scared shitless every time I get on a stage, no matter the size.

But, I know it’s my calling and it’s necessary to succeed at fulfilling my purpose that I’ve devoted my life to.

Preparation is a form of being proactive and in this lists context, it’s being proactive of the fear of public speaking.

Few reasons as to why the fear is there, which is my ego trying to protect me from the unknown, is the fear of rejection & unworthiness.

I know it’s not true and even tho I may be shaking and my heart racing, I repeat my mantras to myself and focus on the vision. Just the same way I would when competition or doing a new trick for the first time.

I Flew To Australia To Tell My Mentor I Took His Advice

2 years ago, as I walked out of a Santa Monica hotel wrapping up one of the first “Unstoppable” podcast episodes with Kerwin, he told me to somehow and in someway manifest a full-time videographer to document my life and share valuable content with all of you.

https://www.instagram.com/tv/Byh34SFhSbP/?igshid=y6wvt4dog4ek

This video was the moment I got to share with Kerwin that I made that happen and am going to continue investing into my purpose and business.

It’s an incredible feeling making money by doing what I love, even after BMX, and to be able to take care of my friends and family at the same time.

The only thing stopping us from reaching out full potential in life and any goal we may have is what’s inside our mind.

I am living proof that we can acquire the things we desire in life when that desire is strong, consistent, and we believe in that desire while working our asses off.
