So where did Apex Unleashed come from? How did this idea get created and how has it been brought into life the way it has nearly 12 months to the day since it was thought of. So, this little scar here, you might see, is that, so I had a surgery and the doctors found a growth in my neck and my partner at the time is 31 weeks pregnant and I got told that there was a very serious issue that we had to deal with and had to get it cut out to find the severity of it.
I was scared. I didn't know what to do and I hadn't felt like I got a lot out of my life from my potential compared to where I was to where I wanted to be. And it's pretty sad, I felt and I had a lot of contempt for myself to think about what, why did it take something like this for me to take some massive action and be a little bit better? And I never took my responsibilities on board as seriously as I should.
I probably just did just enough to get by to sort of, I suppose, be nice enough to myself to say it was okay. And yeah, that surgery changed everything for me because I'm sitting in a hospital bed going that that could have been it. And then what a waste that was. And that's how Apex Unleashed started.
