My story

The stairs told me the truth.

My journey, in my own words. Nothing added.

My story Tap for sound

Life with it

"In 2015, I was 240 lbs, living with Type 2 diabetes, severe sleep apnea, and the constant fear of where I was heading."

"I was taking daily medication, and watching my health decline."

Me, ten years ago

The stairs

"Years ago, I couldn't walk up one flight of stairs without losing my breath. I wasn't old. I wasn't injured. My body had just stopped keeping up with me. And the worst part? I had accepted it as normal. That was my life with Type 2 diabetes. Tired. Heavy. Always one step behind."

Then I decided enough was enough.

"I started three days a week. Simple movements. Light resistance. Nothing extreme."

The work

"Everything changed when I stopped chasing weight loss and started focusing on building habits, strength, and health."

From 240 lbs to 170 lbs, and from surviving to thriving.

"I reversed my diabetes, lost 70 lbs, and ditched the meds."

Why it became bigger than me

"Type 2 Diabetes ran in my family. I was next. But I refused to let it ruin my kids."

"Your kids may carry the same genes. They don't have to carry the same story."

Today

"Today I train four days a week. Not because I have to. Because I know what it feels like when I don't."

Type 2 diabetes didn't end my story. It became the reason I rewrote it.

Now I coach people through the same rewrite, in Toronto and online worldwide.
