From One Entrepreneur To Another
If I thought you’d sit there and read through a near novel about how compassionate, insightful, well-read, understanding, giving, knowledgeable, and capable this man is, I’d write it. In a world where we are all juggling and doing our best to not just get through, but hopefully moreso enjoy each day we have, I’ll instead do my best to utilize brevity.
To that end, working with Rick was, for me, the breakthrough catalyst I was missing in order to effect real, lasting, positive change in life. Like most can attest to, life can get pretty hard. Let’s be honest, it can downright feel like it’s got it in for us. In seeking relief, transformation, anything to feel “better”, we each go about trying several avenues for help. No one really wants to stagnate - fear is a fucker.
A little background you may relate to: I’ve worked with a couple different therapists over the years, each for different things; therein making some progress but feeling like it took too long to get so-so results. My last big detour got me GOOD. My heart & soul shut down due to circumstances that I won’t get into, just know that it landed me in a place of constant fear, anxiety, self-doubt, self-loathing, addiction, laziness, and hiding from the world. When in that state, no one wants to be seen. Getting out of bed is tough enough. Finding any joy in life seems like a distant memory. Emotions run the show, and the brain follows suit; quite adept at constantly ruminating and reminding, at least for me, that life sucked and so too did I. This is not to say that I’ve been completely helpless on my own behalf. In fact, I’m big on self-learning and have studied some of the greats pretty extensively… Wayne Dyer, Eckart Tolle, Joe Dispenza, Abraham Hicks, Byron Katie, Louise Hay, etc. Each taught me different (and often overlapping) lessons that were hugely impactful to my growth and spirit side development over the years.
But when life got me again. I shut down. HARD.
When I was ready, Rick was there to take my hand and lead me out of my self-built emotional trenches. He has this unique ability to battle the mind that I’ve never experienced in another human before. I question A LOT, and during our work he was, IS always able to keep up with my inquires, excuses, confusion… and offer real, relatable expertise wrapped in loving kindness along with actionable steps for improvement. Rick has taken his vast knowledge and personal battles and transmuted them into this radiant, strong, sincere confidant. It’s almost funny - you want to just hang out with him after you bear your soul and he helps you cry, yell, curse and eventually release that which you’d have previously swore was too dark to let anyone see. He spent real time with me, getting in there and evicting fear. I had to be ready and willing to change, which I was. No one can force revival and transformation on another. If you’re struggling with yourself it’s likely you’ve already experienced that firsthand… it just doesn’t stick.
That said, in our work together Rick figuratively held my hand, led the way and reconnected me with my wounded inner child such that I was able to begin real healing and growth. It was a breakthrough experience. Vastly impactful, and that which I am forever grateful to him for. Now, I choose to wake up stupid early because I love seeing the sun come up and am looking forward to exploring what each day brings. Important side note: completely unexpected was a renewed connection and clearer understanding of what spirituality is and how profoundly it can enrich one’s life.

Thoughts of a Strongman during a time of failure.
How do you respond to failing? Do you hang your head in defeat? Throw your hands up in the air and walk away in frustration, never to try again? Do you automatically let the fear of not being good enough creep in? Even worse, do you allow one failure to become part of your identity? Are you now a failure because you failed?
Tonight during my training I failed a lift that I have failed multiple times as of late. After my second attempt, and ultimately my second failure of the night, all of the thoughts above went through my mind. I honestly was hit with a barrage of negative thoughts. Because of these negative thoughts, I was instantly filled with fear and anxiety. Fear of losing when it counts. Fear of not being good enough or embarrassing myself. Then the anxiety set in. I began to dread the lift. I wanted to run out of the gym. I couldn’t think of one positive thing to say about myself or my abilities. Honestly it was a window into the past. A view of the thoughts that I had every day all day about myself. I realized these are the thoughts of a man that no longer exists. The man that thought those thoughts, now knows fear isn’t real, anxiety has no role in my life, and neither fear nor anxiety offer me anything. That man has leveled up and evolved into who I am now. Who am I now? Now I’m a man that takes that failure and understands that it’s part of the journey. I now understand that the failures only stand to make the successes that much more valuable and worthy of celebration. If I never failed, then success wouldn’t be special. It would be meaningless to succeed without failure preceding the success. I know that I am not a failure, and in knowing that I’m not a failure, I know that one day as long as I don’t quit I will succeed. As long as I put in the work, success will come in time and when that day comes, it will be a special moment. A blimp of happiness to be remembered. Why? because I failed, I overcame, I believed in myself, and I succeeded. So am I a failure because I failed? Absolutely not. I’m a warrior powering forward until my day comes that I succeed. I’m a champion. I’m a winner and failure does not define me. That’s who I am now.
