There’s a reason was unanimously selected to the National Athletic Advisory Council in 2023 and will be play collegiate softball at USC Aiken!

The last 3 years we’ve seen her develop an UNSTOPPABLE mental game and push harder when others would’ve given up! Her strong commitment to Athletics, Academics and Personal Character put her in an Elite group many only dream about!

While they were still sleeping this morning, I was honored to train with her at in Conway, SC. If you’ve ever spent more an a few seconds with Benton you know what a joy she is to be around…
and if you’ve trained with her, you’ve seen her work ethic!
Unmatched!

Benton I am so proud of you and honored to have a front row seat to your journey!! BeUNSTOPPABLE! See you tomorrow ;)

“Stop worrying about what it looks like and get real about what it IS like!”

Living by a code that’s REAL, RAW & RELEVANT demands we stop lying about where we are and get down to the business of brutal honesty with ourselves. The numbers. In the bank, in the gym, on the scales, GPA, 401K, on social media…….

So often I see these plastic families, moms, dads, teens, athletes, all trying to present a facade of perfection. It can draw people in like a spell of delusion. But when the mask drops and betrayal ensues, the abandonment felt by those once captivated can be devastating.

Athletes (people) long for a place to get brutally honest. Most places, people, friend groups, churches, country clubs, private schools, PTAs, Boosters, Leadership orgs cannot handle the level of honesty that would be helpful.

I’m careful with who I trust. It took many conversations and a LOT of prayer-walks on the beach to share something with a pastor recently. I told him up until that point I hadn’t shared anything I wouldn’t mind seeing on a billboard. I was also interviewed on a Podcast recently and the level of vulnerability and honest left me with a bit of a hangover.
I’m trusting the process with that.

At the end of the day, not everyone has EARNED the right to hear your story. But when someone does, be all-in.
Stop worrying about what it looks like
and get real about what it IS like!

That, is the only way to grow.

Wasn’t planning on diving into the ocean when I woke up this morning, but said, “YES!” and went for it!

Polar Plunge in the Atlantic with 100 of my favorite strangers & was just what the week needed!

Looking forward to the next one!

Keep your yes on the table and there’s no telling what amazing experiences you’ll have in 2026! Be the one with the stories, not regrets!

Whether it’s a coach, teammate, parent, or your
own Athlete… what you accept, you encourage!

You teach people how to treat you. If they learn they can run all over you, expect to feel like you’ve been hit by a truck.

If you don’t follow through,
don’t expect them to take your boundaries seriously.

If you have standards that apply for only some athletes on your team, you don’t have standards, (or a backbone) you have a bias.

2026 is a great year to start fresh and demand excellence.

Parents - Athletes - Coaches - Leaders & Entrepreneurs in HIGH Performing Positions, we’ve got you! Book a consultation today.

WOW! What a year it’s been!
A social post could never do justice to how unexpected and powerful this year, especially the last 9 months, have been.

Fun, challenging, exhausting, envigorating, confusing, painful, healing and nothing like I’d planned. But like I said on our cards below, and told some dear ladies a couple weeks ago at a gathering, I would’ve never written this (any of it, but specifically being back in Conway and at Langston), into our story and I am grateful God was holding the pen.

I tried to capture highlights but there were just too many. Suffice it to say, E giving his life fully to Jesus and the discipleship & mentorship he’s received/receiving was the absolute best part!

you ARE a vessel and God started this with you. 🙏🏼 Grateful for your friendship, leadership, love, boldness and authority in both our lives!

So honored for all the men who’ve walked with Ethan this year, the friends we’ve made, those we’ve re-established and looking forward to what’s next for him in 2026. 🙏🏼

Awesome surprise from an incredible client this morning!
World Series Champs
Grateful to get to do what I do, helping Athletes and their families on and off the field. Sometimes the deep dives are hard, but the payout is always worth it!

Loading plates for back squats when a sliver of plate broke off into my thumb. You could almost hear the “frrrrst” sound and OUCH!!
Finished training but knew I had to get it out or it would get infected.

Gym manager let me borrow the first aid tweezers to try and dig it out, unfortunately it’s too many layers deep & I couldn’t get all of it.

She was watching and said, and I quote,
“Dang, you have more balls than I do.” Oh my. Well. No. But I know what will happen later if I don’t get it out now.

Distractions can creep into our life like that too. We may not even feel the initial stab, but sooner or later our lives will grow around the thing thats not supposed to be there, we get comfortable and infection will run rampant.

Then, the thing, that would’ve caused temporary pain to purge, stares back at us often with devastating vengeance!

Dig the splinter out now while it’s just a splinter!

At first I was mortified when my son was screaming for me to participate in the women’s arm wrestling competition lol (the winner’s section got to be dismissed next for the food trucks at an INCREDIBLE Thanksgiving service/evening/turkey bowl - games were a brilliant way to ease waiting in line and we were a break for the men’s finals!)

I told E, I want to FIND a man, not act like one lol.
That said, I work HARD in the gym to make my body strong.
Strong and feminine are not mutually exclusive!

I’ve never arm wrestled before in my life lol. I didn’t even know what I was supposed to do with the pegs lol. But I’m happy to say | CRUSHED the competition!! Haha AND I was at least twice their age!!

Though kinda nervous when the first Lady came in super aggressive and out for blood, it actually felt good to see and feel strength.

If you only knew what my body had survived and overcome in the last 2 decades, you’d understand better 1) just how much it took for me to walk up there to begin with ha - (ask lol) and 2) what a miracle it is to have that strength!

Me doing that was FUN and E sure is proud!!
But it’s SO much bigger and evidence of how far I’ve come.
Thanks Brandon Blair & Langston Baptist Church staff for an AMAZING night and leading well!!
Things are just different here. You always remind us, “It’s Jesus!” We’ve never had so much fun while being loved and challenged to grow. Grateful!

Your identity MUST be in something you can’t lose and that can’t be taken away from you. No sport fits that bill. Once you learn who you are OUTSIDE of sport performance, you free yourself up to play and perform at your maximum potential. When it’s no longer who you are, but something you do, THAT is when you become UNSTOPPABLE!!

“A Saturday race is a Friday decision.“

I adapted this quote from something I heard senior pastor Brandon Blair say a while back,
“Sunday church is a Saturday decision.“

In talking with an athlete recently, we discussed how when things get hard — we don’t “feel” like pushing, aren’t getting the outcome we hoped or trained for, something more shiny and fun comes along — and we let our feelings dictate our actions we never achieve our highest potential.

But when we are disciplined, and decide ahead of time what we’re going to do, we keep our word to ourselves and feelings become irrelevant. We are then able to push through and continue to show up curious about what our process and potential can be.

What you decide to do today will determine what results you are capable of tomorrow.
