It’s Election Day, and I’ve got an unpopular opinion: it doesn’t matter who you vote for, because the president doesn’t truly run the US, let alone this world.

Satan does, and it’s not hard to see—just look around at the wars, the greed, the toxic food we consume, and the poisons we sell. Ephesians 2:2 reminds us: “In which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.”

The prince of air is Satan, the disobedient is anyone who doesn’t follow God. Those who don’t follow God place their faith in human leaders who continuously let us down with broken promises, which is why Psalm 146:3-5 says:

“Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save. When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing. Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord their God.”

Today, let’s stay grounded, engaged, and prayerful. Human plans will rise and fall, but our trust and hope should remain in the One who reigns forever.

Ever felt like you’re meant for more but can’t quite figure out what that "more" even is?

That was me for years—feeling like I had something important to offer but constantly questioning whether anyone would even care.

Since 2018, I’ve felt called to coach, but I kept holding myself back. Behind the scenes, I spent the last several years reading tons of personal development and spirituality books, going through transformative experiences with plant medicines like ayahuasca, and diving deep into the Bible for the past year. Recently, I got certified as a life coach.

But honestly? It's been my own life struggles that have taught me the most. From being bullied at a young age, not having a girlfriend until I was 23, becoming a top salesman and making good money, to filing for bankruptcy and losing my mom.

I know what it’s like to be hopelessly depressed and anxious, feeling like there’s no way out. I’ve had to dig myself out of some pretty serious holes, and now, I’m finally ready to help others do the same.

What I’ve realized through all of this is that the one thing I struggled with the most, and I think a lot of people do too, is purpose. When you don’t know your purpose, everything else in life feels harder.

But when you find it? Everything changes—your motivation, confidence, relationships, even your health.

That’s why I’ve put together a Free 5-Day Challenge to help you unlock your divine purpose.

It’s all based on the 5 C’s I’ve discovered over the years:

- Clarity: Getting clear on your values and building a roadmap so that even when life feels scattered, you have something to ground you.

- Creativity: Reigniting your imagination and joy by removing the blocks that hold us back.

- Confidence: Trusting yourself and aligning with your purpose, which makes you more magnetic to others.

- Connection: Building genuine relationships—whether personal, romantic, or within your community—by connecting to your higher self and others.

- Consistency: Staying disciplined even when life throws challenges at you, so you don’t lose momentum.

We kick off on October 7th at 6 PM EST, and I’d love to have you join me.

Simply fill out the form below to reserve your spot:

I look forward to seeing your transformation!

Much love,

In today’s world, there’s a growing fascination with New Age practices and the allure of hidden or “secret” knowledge.

We see people drawn to the idea that there’s an esoteric truth, only accessible to a select few, through occult rituals or mystical practices.

But let’s pause and reflect on what Isaiah 48:16 tells us.

God has never hidden His truth. From the very beginning, He has spoken openly, offering His guidance and wisdom to all who are willing to listen.

There are no secret doors, no hidden rituals, no exclusive knowledge required to understand God’s will.

When the time comes for His plans to unfold, He is present, making Himself known to all, not just a chosen few.

The idea that true knowledge must be hidden is a deception. It’s a tactic of the enemy, designed to pull us away from the simplicity and clarity of God’s message. The evil one thrives in secrecy, in twisting the truth, and in creating confusion.

But our God is a God of light, transparency, and accessibility.

If someone claims to possess secret knowledge or a hidden truth that contradicts God’s Word, be wary.

God’s love and truth are available to everyone, and His Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path (Psalm 119:105).

Notice anything odd about this picture?

I don’t know about you, but I think it would have been a nicer pic if I wasn’t holding my phone. However, it makes a great cover for this post.

This morning, I woke up feeling a little anxious, and almost immediately, I got a message: I need to spend less time on my phone. It was then that I remembered I had slept with my phone in my bed.

Normally, I don’t sleep with any phone or laptop in my room because I read somewhere that even if they are off, they can still emit electromagnetic fields (EMFs). EMFs can potentially disrupt sleep patterns and overall sleep quality.

I’ve noticed the difference. When I don’t sleep with my phone in the room, I can remember my dreams and haven’t woken up anxious in a while.

Phone addiction is real and extremely toxic. Instead of connecting with ourselves, we’re constantly having others’ values and beliefs pressed upon us.

Our thoughts and beliefs shape our reality, and the way these sophisticated algorithms are set up, they’ll keep feeding you the reality that you engage with most.

For any question we have, our phone is the first thing we turn to. However, the answers to the most important questions lie within and come in silence.

Phones are distractions. Yes, you have endless information and entertainment at your fingertips, but there’s a cost to everything.

Right now, we’re living in a new economy—the creator economy, where attention is the number one currency. In this economy, there are two types of people: creators and consumers.

The ones who create more than they consume will thrive. The ones who consume more than they create will pay for the lifestyle of those who create.

For the longest time, I was a consumer, but now it’s time to change that.

Who will join me?

Sure! Here are some viral hashtags to go with your post:

A Chinese bamboo tree takes five years to grow.

Every day, it must be watered and nurtured in the ground where it was planted.

For five years, nothing appears above ground. But once it breaks through, it grows 90 feet tall in just five weeks!

This isn’t just about a bamboo tree—it’s about you.

It's that time again...

The crypto bull run is rapidly approaching, so get ready to hear those almost mythical stories of people turning a few hundred dollars into millions. At the same time, many project founders will be left scratching their heads, wondering why a token named after (insert cute animal here) is soaring to a multi-billion dollar market cap, while their innovative, world-changing projects are left trailing in the dust.

While luck and market manipulation can play a role, there are some common mistakes many projects make, and it usually comes down to having one or more problems with what I call the '5 C's:

Copy: Simplicity Wins

Even the most revolutionary project will struggle if it can't be explained simply. If a 5-year-old can't grasp your concept in 30 seconds, it's too complex. People are interested in benefits, not just technology. Make your message clear and concise.

Content: Emotional Over Technical

Most content fails to engage because it focuses on features, not emotions. Take a layer1 blockchain, for example: it may be faster and cheaper, but simply listing these features won't captivate your audience. People care about how these benefits impact their lives. It's not just about the information you present, but how you present it. The fonts, colors, and lighting in your content all influence how people perceive and connect with your brand.

Community: Your Foundation

A project without a community is like a tree without roots. This is why projects aiming to end world hunger or stop climate change get frustrated when something like Napoleon Dynamite Token surges 300,000% in a day, while they struggle to reach a 1 million dollar market cap. Often, founders focus too much on the product, thinking it will sell itself, and they emphasize features that their audience doesn’t care about. People don’t care how much you know unless they know how much you care. Your audience needs to feel understood and provided with what they want. They seek to be entertained and informed about things that interest them; they don’t want to be constantly sold to.

Conversions: Ease and Accessibility

This is the most painful aspect because you have an audience, but you’re not converting them into users or investors. This can happen for several reasons, but one of the main ones is that your token or DApp isn't easy enough to buy or use. We all know crypto isn't the most user-friendly thing in the world, but you can do your part by educating your community, providing video tutorials, and offering support. Optimizing your website and social media platforms is a must.

Closing: The Art of Sales

The last reason I see projects fail is that they have no sales team. They have nobody reaching out for partnerships. Nobody talks to potential whales on platforms like LinkedIn. If someone is looking to invest, they’re talking to people on Telegram and Discord who don’t know anything other than the launch date, or market cap if your project is launched, is not going to meet the need. I can’t begin to tell you how many times I’ve seen projects fumble the ball with big-time investors because they just can’t get a hold of anyone competent enough to answer their questions.

If you're a blockchain or DeFi project looking to build the right way, I'm offering a free brand audit for a limited time. Just comment 'BUILD' or send me a PM.

The face you make when you realize you’re going to be executive producing your first documentary 😏

This past November, I went drinking around the world at Epcot. For those unfamiliar, Epcot, one of Disney World’s theme parks, hosts a Food and Wine Festival from July to November. During this event, you can try diverse dishes and drinks from various countries.

I’ve attended this festival several times at different stages of my life. While there, it reminded me of one of my first visits to Epcot during a 7th-grade field trip, where my mom was the chaperone. It was the first and only time she chaperoned, and I fondly recall the good feeling of having her there, with all the kids thinking she was cool.

Prior to that, I visited Epcot with my parents on a family trip, and afterward, I went as a single guy with my cousin, aiming to meet some ladies. I also visited with a group of friends and, most recently, with my girlfriend.

Walking through the park, nostalgia hit me, reflecting on how much I’ve evolved over the years. I couldn’t help but think that the next time I visit Epcot might be as a dad, reliving the experience through my children.

Life is a journey, and each step is special and necessary for the next. Being present is crucial, as you never know what special memories you’re creating 🍱 🍷 🎇

This picture was taken of me during one of my ayahuasca ceremonies, and it's one of my favorite pictures because it marked a significant moment in my life.

I had found this spot overlooking the pool, and I don't believe anyone had thought of meditating here before me.

What was going through my mind at that moment? Well, one of the things I was striving to teach myself during this retreat was stillness and discipline. I usually find it challenging to meditate and sit still. During this ceremony, I didn't allow myself to move despite the distractions, such as flies buzzing around me, noise, and leaves from the trees brushing against my face. Something extraordinary occurred.

While I was up there, an internal battle raged within me. My mind wanted to be distracted and wanted to move, but my spirit was resolute: "No, you're going to sit still." The result was that I began to shake violently and emit some unusual noises that everyone in the entire retreat could hear. Many began to laugh due to the unexpected sounds.

At times, I wanted to join in the laughter because it was so unexpected, but I made sure to discipline myself to endure the discomfort.

One of my intentions during this retreat was to develop leadership skills, and I remember telling myself not to laugh along with everyone else, even though I wanted to. A leader is disciplined and stands out from the crowd.

As a side note, after the ceremony, one of the facilitators told me that during his journey, I looked like Buddha floating, which I thought was pretty cool.
