My Mission
MY MISSION: Provide a sanctuary for high-achieving men and elite golfers seeking inner freedom and inner peace.
​
At Inner Power Collective, I mentor men who appear successful on the outside but feel anxious, disconnected, or unfulfilled within.
​
Through Inner Power Mentoring and Presence Golf Mentoring, I walk beside men who are ready to break free from quiet suffering
and return to a life of freedom, courage, authenticity, and Presence.
​
Together, we:
• Heal emotional and energetic wounds
• Release pressure, perfectionism, and past pain
• Reclaim clarity, courage, and inner peace
• Cultivate Presence and inner Power through Qi Gong, breathwork, and deep conversation
​
This is a place where men come home to themselves.

MY STORY
From Quiet Desperation to Presence and Inner Power
For many years, I lived what Thoreau called a life of quiet desperation.
​
On the outside, I looked strong—disciplined, driven, successful.
But inside, I was unraveling.
I didn’t know who I was beyond performance, perfection, and survival.
​
I learned early that vulnerability wasn’t safe, so I built a life around strength, achievement, and control. I chased everything that promised fulfillment—sports, bodybuilding, women, alcohol, even religion. None of it touched the ache inside.
​
When My Identity Collapsed, So Did I
A knee injury ended my dream of playing professional football.
My identity as an athlete vanished overnight.
​
Later, my marriage ended.
My drinking spiraled.
My career felt empty.
I was alive—but not living.
​
Behind every mask I wore lived the same truth:
I was lost, disconnected, and afraid to admit it.
​
The Turning Point
One night, in the darkest place of my life, I fell to my knees and asked for help.
Not from the God of my childhood—distant and conditional—
but from something deeper, quieter, closer.
​
That moment began the slow unraveling of everything false.
​
I started searching—not through dogma, but through direct experience:
Taoism.
Christian mysticism.
Non-duality.
Stillness.
Presence.
Qi Gong.
Silence.
​
Slowly, I came home to the truth I had been running from:
What I was seeking had always been within.
​
The Kingdom Within
The realization that changed everything:
​
The Kingdom of Heaven is within.
The Presence I longed for was my own true Self.
​
I no longer had to perform, prove, or pretend.
I had to listen—to the still, small Voice that had been there all along.
Why I Serve
Today, I mentor high-achieving men and elite golfers who look strong on the outside but feel overwhelmed on the inside—just like I once did.
​
I’m not here to fix anyone.
I’m here to walk beside men who are suffering silently,
who are ready to let go of the masks,
and who are longing to live and play from their true Self.
​
My work is simple:
​
Presence.
Inner Power.
Transformation from within.
​
I hold a sacred, judgment-free space
for men and golfers to heal, awaken, and remember who they truly are.
​
My Mission
I created Inner Power Collective and Presence Golf
to guide truth-seeking men and elite golfers who are drowning in pressure, anxiety, or identity loss.
​
Not through self-improvement.
Not through performance.
But through Presence.
​
If I can help even one man reclaim his inner power,
everything I’ve lived through will have been worth it.
​
A Final Truth
You are not broken.
You are not alone.
You are not beyond healing.
​
The power you’re seeking has always lived within you.
​
When you return to that truth—
you become the light you were searching for.
​
To your inner power,
