| Introduction | When I was younger, I was very shy with an overwhelming desire to help others. I have since discovered that I have an amazing gift of being able to help people break through their greatest fears, to go beyond what they thought was possible and I am grateful to have helped over 100,000 people so far. My mission is to let people know they can make a difference, even if it’s just a simple smile! Most people have been led to believe they can‘t do anything, that they’re just one person, that they don‘t have the skills or mindset to do make a significant impact. I‘ve learned in my travels around the world is that anyone can affect change that will make their life better, a person can be happy with absolutely nothing and saving lives is great gift! If you’re breathing, you can do it and even that is a criteria because what you do now can and will have an affect on others long after you’re gone. It’s my mission in life to connect those people and encourage others to step forward through six degrees of kindness, through what is known as paying it forward! |
| Interests | To give back! Last summer, I chose to let my two homes go back to the bank and I set out to walk 900 miles. I was able to complete 697 miles, though, due to challenges in getting donations, I will be back to finish that distance with future donations. Carrying a 12 foot banner to bring awareness about the dangers of Breast Cancer and that this disease takes a life every 68 seconds as one in 4 women will be affected, it was an honor to walk among such committed men and women. What drove me to press on was the promise to my 3 year old daughter, Isis-Angellica, that I would protect her in any way I could since I couldn’t wave a magic wand to clear her Godmother’s cancer. She lost her Great Grandmother to cancer and I would do anything as a Dad to never have to face that question from her later in life! My amazing wife, Candace and I agreed we could make a difference by letting people know that 98% of diagnoses can be cured with early detection to save lives. Since then, her Great Aunt was able to stop this disease and took the necessary steps to fight back. |
| Favorite books | I helped school teachers, with absolutely nothing, empowering children to believe in themselves, to work together as a community, to support one another, respect each other’s space and belongings even though they had none of their own. I headed into the Cuban mountains where the locals and the gorillas live in harmony, two Jamaicans paddled out to greet me on an old, broken down surfboard to offer what they had with nothing expected in return. They live by their motto to enjoy life to the fullest. I had the opportunity to see people coming together in the Cape Verde Islands in a old abandoned warehouse sharing their skills and learning from each other in order to get by. |
If there's no I in team, why is there meat?
left on a 7 year journey. I sailed across the Atlantic ocean twice without a motor. Imagine three weeks without sight of land, going through three tropical storms, one hurricane, three attempts by others to board my boat and I was shipwrecked at one point. Sailed 200 miles up the Gambia River, the original slave trade route, saw people still living in grass huts who were happy to share everything
