Where It All Began

Growing up, I had the ideal childhood. A stable family, wealthy town, ability to play many different sports, great friends and a top notch school system.

However, there was one thing that I always struggled with as a kid.

All the way back in kindergarten, I learned that I have a processing disorder. This essentially meant I had a difficult time saying what was on my mind in a clear way or how I wanted it to sound. I would know the answer in my head but when I had to say it out loud, I wouldn’t be able to—or it would take forever.

This caused me to be more introverted and quiet. When I would try to say what I was thinking, other kids would lose patience and eventually start talking again before I could say what I wanted.

As I grew older, I was able to manage this disorder much better, to the point where it has no effect on my today.

While this processing disorder made it more difficult to speak freely, I became an excellent listener and observer, noticing and hearing things that others didn’t.

The Turning Point

After graduating high school, I went off to college to get my degree in Statistics at Miami University (Miami of Ohio). While I had overcome a lot with my processing disorder, it still had an effect on me socially.

Then in my junior year, right as I was hitting my stride, Covid hit. I went home the next week, away from all my friends I was supposed to spend the rest of the semester with.

The social isolation had a major effect on me—along with losing my internship due to Covid, having to resort to working the night shift at an Amazon warehouse, and my parents getting divorced during that summer.

What I thought would be the most fun year of my life ended up being the most miserable and worst year of my life.

With all of this going on, I made the decision that I never wanted to be in this situation or feel like this ever again. My senior year of college was the year I started my personal development journey, which laid the foundations for where I am today.

Post-Grad, The Start of my Awakening

After school, I lived at home and was able to get an internship until December of 2021.

Then in July of 2022, I landed an analyst position at SpiderRock Advisors, a financial derivatives company that trades options.

The job was fast-paced, high-intensity, in-office 5 days a week, intellectually challenging and non-stop work from 7–5 Monday through Friday. While the job was difficult and strenuous, many of my co-workers were in their twenties or early thirties. They were great people to be around, very sociable and like-minded.

Eventually, I got very comfortable with interacting with my coworkers—to the point where it felt as though the social part of me truly started to shine.

However, even with things going great at work, I felt as though this was not my path and that I was meant for more than an office job.

In August of 2022, only a couple months after I started my job, I learned something about the world that made me deeply concerned for the future of human civilization.

At that moment in time, I made the decision to dedicate the rest of my life to helping out with this cause.

Finding the Bigger Mission

I continued to work at my job in the meantime and learned as much as I could about how I might help ensure that humanity's future moved in the right direction — rather than continuing down the path we were on.

With all the knowledge I accumulated, I knew I had to share what I learned publicly, and felt as though my true passion and purpose was creating content.

Since creating content can take a while to start making money and wanted to quit my job, I needed another way to make money while creating content so that I could support myself.

Eventually, I came across life coaching and knew this was the perfect thing for me to do while I built up my following.

I also realized that with my financial background and experience with options, I could also use day trading as an additional way to make income.

Once I had this plan in place, I knew it was time for me to quit and officially had my last day in the office at the end of August 2024.

While most people would play it safe—building up a client base for coaching, growing a following on social media, continuing to save money—I knew that I had to fully commit in order for all of this to work.

What I’m Doing Now

Since then, I have been pursuing my dream of helping others become healthy, wealthy and awakened through coaching and content creation. I’m now a certified coach, created my first YouTube video and have helped many of my clients become better versions of themselves.

On top of all of this, I meditate, workout, cook a meal at night and stay updated with current events just about every day. I continue to learn more about cryptocurrencies, astrology, lucid dreaming, trading strategies, gardening and even a new song on the piano when I have the time.

When I’m not doing something productive, I enjoy hanging out with friends, watching sports, specifically, MMA, football, golf and hockey, doing Brazilian jiu jitsu (BJJ), golfing, playing tennis, biking, watching YouTube videos, and occasionally trying something new.
