Shaped by my life experiences of pursuing a professional career in football while anchoring my faith in Jesus Christ, which I used as my foundation to find my purpose off the playing field. It was easy to preach a biblical philosophy to others when everything seemed to be working in my favor personally. However I found it much harder to practice what I preached and to apply those same principles to myself when I came across my own hardships. What I quickly realized was that my circumstances weren’t all that unique. And that many others would likely go through or have already gone through the same process of emotions that I did in their own respective journey. So I found it imperative to share how my faith in God kept me grounded and focused so I had a chance to fight through my hurdles rather than be victimized by my circumstances. 

IVeverGrateful is not just a brand or even a business, it’s a lifestyle and a soul posture to take on anchoring your mind, body and spirit. We live in a world where societal pressures and cultural expectations tend to be such heavy burdens that individuals try to carry them completely on their own. Rather, I encourage people to find that community they can trust and lean on, further promoting the notion that we don’t have to endure these life battles in isolation. You never know who is looking up to you or how something you went through may be beneficial to someone else. They say if you want to go somewhere fast, go alone… but if you want to go somewhere far, go together. We’re in this together, one collectively shared life experience of helping one another elevate and progress as a community rather than as individuals.
