In this journal entry, I take you inside my real-time processing as I work through launching The Mental Rewire. I wrestle with the tension between forcing something forward versus allowing it to unfold through deep internal work. I open up about my fears, doubts, and excitement around niching down into work that feels deeply aligned with who I am — helping people get unstuck through mental rewiring and jumpstarting their spark. If you're someone who's ever wrestled with launching something that feels personal, or struggled with whether you're ready enough, I think you'll relate to this one.

In this deeply personal hike with my brother Devin, we explore the paradoxes of progress, acceptance, and pace. We talk about letting go of external pressures, allowing yourself and others to move at your own rhythm, and finding peace in both the striving and the stillness. From faith to food, from caffeine to connection — this is a conversation about learning to feel it, not force it. One step at a time.

In this raw and wandering journal entry, I process the tension between where I am and where I feel called to go. As I hike through the Wellsville mountains, I wrestle with the fear of choosing a path that feels like a step backwards financially, while knowing deep down that my soul is pulling me toward something different. I talk about fragile belief, the temptation to force things too early, and my desire to help people create meaningful change — not for scale or status, but for real transformation. This is me working through my own faith to stay aligned with my unique path.
