Ever felt like your life's stuck on repeat? That's where I was, between the ages of 20-30 years old cruising on life's highway with no exits in sight. It felt like I was trapped in a never-ending loop of partying, drinking, and pleasing people. But one day, the question hit me like a ton of bricks, "wtf are we doing here!?" It was like I'd woken up from a ten-year pause, much like the characters in the movie "10 Years" where Channing Tatum and his crew start revealing their true selves as they meet up at their 10 year reunion and reminisce about their high school days. Was high school the highlight of your life? “I wanna go back to my high school weight” “back in high school was when….[fill in the blank].

This realization led me to a junction in life, where I had to decide to take the steering wheel of my life back or continue to let life lead me to conformity. It was time to “stop-drop-and rollll..'' like those dumb tik tok dances. I literally started my coaching business based on my life, Mogressive Coaching, became the canvas where I painted my journey of relearning, rewiring, and retraining my brain. It’s all about breaking free from the shackles of societal norms and rediscovering oneself.

And hey, guess what? Our brain is not some rigid lump of unchangeable blob but a dynamic powerhouse that's constantly morphing itself-adapting. This cool phenomenon is known as neuroplasticity. It's like our brain's way of carving out new scenic routes in a dense forest, making the passage of thoughts and memories smoother. Now, throw that in the same room with neurogenesis, which is our noggin popping out new brain cells even as adults. Think of it like your brain's not a dusty old attic or closet but more of a lively house party, always buzzing with fresh ideas and new vibes.

I often compare the brain's “elasticity” to a rubber band. Imagine pulling a rubber band; it stretches right? That's your brain on neuroplasticity. Now, envision slicing a juicy rib-eye steak into thin strips, each representing a specific memory or skill. If the slice (or rubber band) is too rigid, it snaps easily leading to issues like short-term memory loss. But with some TLC (Tender Loving Care), like the exercises I talk about on my blogs, you can make these 'rubber bands' elastic AF, enhancing your memory, focus, and overall brain health.

The purpose of Mogressive Coaching is not just a memoir but a toolkit, a guide for young adults to understand that they can seize the reins of their life anytime. It's about debunking the myth of the 'ten-year pause' between 20 to 30, where many feel lost in the chaos of adulthood. You don’t have to keep guessing which next move in life will make you or break you. As a life coach, I've tailored my coaching to resonate with the young guns, showing that learning and relearning is a lifelong affair, and it's never too late to change the game. So, if you're up for breaking the mold and not just being a part of the rat race, hop on to the Mogressive wagon, and let's explore the limitless realms of our minds together.

My big picture goal here isn’t just about shaking things up, but really about sparking that belief in you that with the right tools and a killer mindset, you can totally rock your own world. So here’s your invite to jump into the cool, insightful world of Mogressive, where we dig into the awesome stuff like neuroplasticity and neurogenesis, but in a way that’s fun and makes sense. Every story, tool, and nugget of wisdom is a stepping stone for you to get back the reins of your self-identity, and start paving your own path for the kind of future you get excited to wake up to. Own your life... or someone else will.

I never pictured myself as a life coach a few years back, but seeing my friends and family almost tossing their lives into the ‘same old, same old’, I couldn’t just sit back and watch the show.

Post-military, I had two clear roads ahead: one, slide back into the old routine pre-army, becoming just another face in the crowd; or two, pick the rougher path, figure out all the ‘whys’ about me and the big world around, and inspire others that hey, you don’t have to follow the herd. It’s easy to just do as we’re told, but tossing out those autopilot instructions and asking yourself some real-deal questions like, “why have I been on this follow-the-leader game my whole life?” “Who was I, who am I now, and who do I wanna be?” can be game-changing.

I’m here to share, coach, and cheer you on as you break free from the fear of what others might think, say, or do. Let’s trash those fears and embrace courage to do what excites us, even if it gives us the jitters. That’s where the real growth kicks in. If you’re vibing with this and are ready to take your life from mundane to mind-blowing, I’ve got some next level coaching programs lined up just for you, not “just from a book” but a mix of real world trial and error to yeah the academia side, like understand your brain through neuroplasticity & neurogenesis.

Let’s team up and start doing the stuff that scares us, because that’s where our unrealized potential is chilling, waiting for us to step up. Hop on board, and let’s kick some serious butt together!
