STories of transformation
"Eventually, the skills I learned to survive became the tools I use to thrive. "
Over the last fifteen years I led myself out of abysmal depression, panic attacks, aggression, substance abuse, domestic abuse, food allergies, failure, and fear, using what I now know are functional, mind-body medicine tools and shadow integration.
A Narrative of THRIVING.
After over a decade of elite training as a competitive swimmer, I was injured before I was able to fully actualize my potential. I sought the help of conventional medicine without relief and what began as grief quickly sank into a disparaging ego death at the early age of seventeen. At that time I didn’t realize the role my training, mental focus, and pointed purpose had served- it was an antidote to trauma, and when it was gone my entire world fell in on itself as I was met with a much larger dose of reality. For the next 5 years, I would experience a cataclysm of mind, body, and soul in every arena of life- the pain redoubled on itself and led to more poor experiences; I ended up in some very unsafe, unhealthy, isolating circumstances.
​
I was broken, but on some level I knew that what I was experiencing was not pathological madness. On some level, I knew that if I could lead myself through those experiences, then I could handle anything. ​
Using my body as a vessel and my mind as a tool, I altered my state of being to serve my potential instead of sabotaging it. Eventually, the skills I learned to survive and recover, became the tools I use to thrive. Every day became a great game of optimizing toward my highest human potential. Without guidance, support, or understanding, I faltered many times but eventually developed a lifestyle and principles that I could rely on. Today, I know these evidence-based principles by name- functional medicine, mind-body medicine, shadow integration, positive psychology, quantum mechanics, radical self-honesty, etc- however, at the time, they came in the form of intuitive hits and old texts.
lost in a biological feedback loop...i needed a coach.
The keys to unlocking your power and actualizing
your personal human potential are what I wish to share with you.
​Eventually, the skills I used to survive and recover, became the tools I use to thrive. Every day became a great game of optimizing habits and calibrating toward my highest human potential.
After studying to become a Functional Medicine Health Coach the scientific explanation of why some things worked, and others didn't, was revealed. Looking back at my journey many of the keys I found have names.
Those insights on how to effect lifestyle change and incorporate behaviors that support the actualization of your personal human potential are what I wish to share with you.
