Ten years ago last month, I embarked on my journey as an entrepreneur with my first brand, Goldfish Fitness. Today, I am excited to share with you the launch of my latest endeavor, RESET Barbell Strength Coaching

Reflecting on the past decade, I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to have collaborated with such incredible clients, mentors, colleagues, and friends. Each of you has played a significant role in shaping this new chapter of my life, and I am thankful for your support and inspiration.

You know who you are, and I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you.

Warm regards,

Dave Picc

forget who you think you are

this happens, of course, little by little

and only if truth is your highest priority

who you’ve been, was to protect you

so challenging it, will raise the alarm

and call the troops

so don’t be fooled

discovering who you truly are

who you were born to be

is the most dangerous game

your heart will suffer greatly

and your eyes will drain of tears

you’ll lose your comfort and “control”

And face your deepest fears

but in the end, you’ll be totally free

and finally understand

what it is to be fully “ME”

…Forgiveness carries with it an energy that implies what we or anybody else did something that was wrong. Whether it was our boss, our parents, or our best friend, who are we to make such judgements about others’ behaviors?

This is not to be confused with avoiding responsibility. If we have hurt somebody who we care about, we can, and should do our very best to try and work it out. To see each the other’s perspective, take responsibility for our part, and seek compromise. I’ve learned that doing this doesn’t have to be mutually exclusive of not judging ourselves. canEveryone is doing their best, with the tools and conditioning that they have at their disposal at that moment in time. This isn’t necessarily truth, but it is my truth.

But hurt people, hurt people, and I DEEPLY believe that if we truly want to change the world in whichever eco-niche we feel called to personally, be it social justice, regenerative farming, holistic medicine and health, conscious poetry, etc., that instead of soley focusing on changing that which is outside of us, we must also work on healing our deepest wounds as well. For we are not yet aware of the true healing power we harness within us. Until we do…

And for myself, one of the gifts of my journey is discovering what my true healing power is. Ironically, it is the thing that i’ve hidden from the most. The thing that conjures up the most ferocious dragons inside me, and has brought me face to face with the threat of complete annihilation numerous times. That which has triggered my deepest wounds, and which I’ve shoved down the furthest. The thing that has gone as far as motivating my life. Forcing me through fear to create identities for the sole purpose of not having to face it.

And that’s my expression. Whether it’s song, dance, spoken word, poetry, or storytelling. Courageously sharing my authentic truth is not only my greatest gift, but also my edge, the thing that stands between me and my most aligned, divine self.

Thanks for listening

This story represents so much for me, and if you took the time to read it, I thank you.

Even though it took form slowly over the course of this last year, it really is the manifestation of a decade of inner work. A decade of fear, confusion, and a lot of stumbling around in the dark. A never ceasing battle between psyche and spirit.

Most of my life, my experience has been that of constantly running from the ever present storm, looming on the horizon. I could never stop to catch my breath, for if I did, I would be swallowed whole by the hurricane of anxiety that I was tirelessly evading. When I wasn’t doing or achieving, I was searching; I would dig, ever deeper through the muck of past conditioning and old stories, for the answer to how to ease this struggle of existence.

My 20’s was an epic adventure. If you had asked me then, I would have told you that I was going to strive to succeed at any cost. Not knowing, until recently, that it was really a quest to search for the key to the locked box hidden deep within my chest. The box that I knew was there waiting, keeping joy, peace and unconditional love just out of reach - until I was ready. I understood, conceptually, what these states of being could offer. But to me, they only existed as ideals, hidden away in the books that I tirelessly scoured.

Looking back, I haven’t been perfect. There were times I didn’t show up as my best. Times that I put the least important things ahead of those that were the most important. I wasn’t the best friend, son, brother, or lover. At times, I was opportunistic, cold, and selfish. As the adage goes, “hurt people, hurt people”.

But one of the most important lessons that I’ve learned, is that unconditional love, and by extension - peace and joy, cannot exist without true acceptance. Acceptance of the fact that although I did some unsavory things, or acted in ways that weren’t becoming of the highest expression of my character, I can honestly say, 100% of the time, I was doing my best. Or at least - what I thought was right. Peter Crone discusses the importance of reframing the idea of “forgiveness” to “acceptance”, and I’m here for it…
