“Let's talk about "embracing the suck" - life is tough, we're tougher! I'm a mental toughness expert and champion athlete with a message!”
I'm a world-record-holding non-binary competitive strongman athlete. If you're unfamiliar with strongman: It's the people pulling trucks and walking around with cement stones on ESPN!
Over the past year, I've written a book about my experience, delivered a TEDx talk, started two businesses, and won several strongman competitions.
I am a gritty, no-holds-barred, honest, open communicator who will happily talk about the pitfalls of addiction, my experiences with PTSD and domestic violence, what it's like to be queer, the ways in which I build community, and what it's like to be successful and mentally ill.
