My Story...

As someone who has experienced pain on all levels (mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually), I know what it is like to lose hope and feel stuck. 

After surviving a failed abduction attempt when I was 8 years old, I was full of worry and anxiety, never feeling safe. This is why I joined Jiu Jitsu and actively trained in MMA (mixed martial arts), fighting in tournaments and prepping cage fighters for about 6 years. I over-trained and pushed my body to it's limit to the point it started breaking down on me. I accumulated many injuries and never allowed my body to fully heal because I didn't want to appear "weak." I would go back to training no matter how hurt I was because I needed to prove to myself that I could fight. I abused my body to the point where I had to be pulled from the sport with multiple concussions, a dislocated spine and a torn meniscus.

My doctor told me that I wouldn't be able to actively train in martial arts again and that if I got hit in the head one more time in the right place, I could end up as a vegetable for the rest of my life.

I was devastated. I tied my identity to that sport and it was taken from me in an instant. The pain from my injuries became chronic and were a constant reminder of what I could no longer do or be. I completely lost who I was and I fell into a spiraling depression. My chronic pain became unbearable... 

It didn’t matter how much I did to address the physical pain. I went to multiple doctors, went through dozens of medical tests with no clear answers or diagnosis. I went to physical therapy, chiropractic appointments, massage therapy and focused on my nutrition with little to no relief for nearly 6 years. I was popping pain pills left and right that didn't make me feel like myself. Emotionally I was defeated and mentally I was over critical. 

I was told my pain was all in my head. It didn’t matter how much I tried to think positively. I still felt stuck and constantly reminded of my pain keeping me stuck. 

It didn’t matter how much I tried to push away those “negative” emotions. I still didn’t feel great physically and mentally I felt like I was going to explode at any second.

I learned the messy and hard way to get out of pain.

 I realized that there were missing pieces and neuroscience cracked the code. Once I understood how the human brain and nervous system work TOGETHER when it came to pain... THAT was when things started to make sense.

I discovered that the health care system is flawed with a lot of cracks in its foundation when it comes to only addressing the physical aspects of pain and treating the body separately from the mind.

This is why I left the medical field... I wanted to help people as a WHOLE and actually teach people how to work with their brain and nervous system to get out of pain and stay out of pain.
