July was a full month with lots of traveling and lots of wrestling!
Join me as I share my recent experiences taking athletes to some of the best events in the nation. First was the Rutgers Team Camp in Newark, NJ. Next was the U.S. Marine Corps Junior Nationals held in Fargo, ND. Then finishing off the month with the Backyard Brawl in Atlanta, GA.
Today's topic is Reflection. At an event called Creative Mornings, I heard a friend, William Mcneely, speak wisdom into a crowd around the word reflection. This made me reflect on my life and passions. After about 11 months, I return to the mic and bring another episode.
In this episode, I start by talking about my Gym O Tribe as we had numerous fighters travel to Monterry, Mexico to compete in the Pan American Championships.
I also talk about a new app I am working with called Linxy. Linxy is a social experience app that aims to help individuals make meaningful and intentional connections in different spaces and events. To learn more, visit Linxy.Live.

In today's society, mindfulness and mental health have become popular topics of discussion. Since losing my athlete identity in 2017, I have had to face and overcome my own mental health challenges. Although it wasn't easy, it was for sure worth it.
With 3+ years of meditation experience, journals full of reflections, and the apparent increase in the importance of mental health, I would like to create a space where I can share my experiences, have a conversation, answer questions, and support my community with their mental health struggles.
Be on the lookout for more conversations and podcasts around Mental Health and Mindfulness. I look forward to covering this topic and connecting on a deeper level with my community.
Feel Free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to support!

Last week, I decided to give it a cut and donate my luscious locks to Wigs4Kids, a local grassroots non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that provides wigs and support services at no charge to children and young adults experiencing hair loss due to cancer, alopecia, trichotillomania, burns, and other disorders. .

In this episode, I share the amazing experience I had with a fundraiser that our wrestling club, C2X Wrestling Academy, had this weekend. On November 7-8 from noon to noon, we had over 30 individuals participate in 24 hours of fitness. This was a different workout, every hour on the hour. We did this to raise money to grow the sport of wrestling in the Carolinas and support families that have children with life-altering diseases.
Listen to some of the challenges we hit, the things we learned, the special guests that stopped in, and the fun we had. It was an amazing time that we got to spend together for a cause that is greater than us.
