Every journey has a starting point. For me, it began in a place I never thought I’d be—rock bottom. This first episode is my story, told in full. The early losses, the bad decisions, the years I almost didn’t make it through… and the small, steady shifts that brought me back.

I’m sharing the experiences that shaped The Microshift Project—why perseverance matters more than quick wins, and how micro changes can create a life you’re proud of.

You’ll hear:

  • Growing up with loss and instability
  • The downward spiral into addiction and homelessness
  • The moment everything changed at 21
  • How recovery became a foundation for growth
  • Building a career, a business, and a family from the ground up
  • Why I believe one small shift can start massive momentum

This isn’t just a highlight reel—it’s the full picture. The hard parts. The turning points. The lessons I carry into every conversation on this podcast.

What you’ll get from this episode:

  • An unfiltered look at my personal journey
  • The meaning and mission behind The Microshift Project
  • Why I focus on perseverance over performative “courage”
  • The mindset shifts that have carried me through the last 20 years

Why start here?
Because I believe you can’t trust someone’s advice until you know where they’ve been. This is my ground zero—and my proof that change is possible, no matter where you start.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, doubted your ability to turn things around, or wondered whether the next step is even worth it—this episode is for you.
