Who I am — and why I do this work.

This isn’t about credentials. It’s about scars. And how those scars shaped the work I do with men like you.

On the outside, I looked like I was winning.

For years, I played the game perfectly. Career climbing. Money flowing. The image was polished: strong, capable, unshakable.

But that’s all it was — an image. Behind it, I was drowning. The pressure never stopped. The bad habits I thought I controlled were controlling me. I smiled in photos, but inside I was hollow.

I told myself: “I can handle it. I’ll sort it out later.” But later never came. And the mask got heavier every day.

I went places most men don’t admit to.

There were nights I drank to forget. Mornings I hated myself before I even got out of bed. I lost things that mattered because I couldn’t face what was happening inside me.

I carried shame so heavy it nearly broke me. Addiction. Anger. Silence. I was living two lives — the one everyone saw, and the one I barely survived.

And for a while, I thought that was it. That this was who I was destined to be.

But breaking doesn’t mean it’s over. Sometimes it’s the beginning.

There came a moment I couldn’t keep running. No more hiding. No more pretending. I faced the truth I’d buried for years: I wasn’t in control anymore.

It was brutal. It was humbling. But it was also the first time I was honest with myself.

Piece by piece, I started rebuilding. Not with self-help clichés. Not with “just think positive.” With raw honesty, practical shifts, and people who didn’t let me hide anymore.

That’s where the real change began.

I rebuilt my life — not perfectly, but truthfully.

It wasn’t quick. It wasn’t pretty. But over time, I became someone I could respect again.

I learned how to break cycles instead of repeating them. How to lead without burning out. How to live without numbing myself every night.

And somewhere along that climb, I realised something: the very battles I thought would destroy me had given me the tools to help other men fight their own.

This isn’t theory. This is lived experience.

I don’t coach from textbooks. I don’t sit across from you with a clipboard. I sit with you as a man who’s been through the fire, and came out the other side.

I know what it’s like to hate the man in the mirror. I know what it’s like to feel trapped in cycles you can’t break. I know what it’s like to carry success in one hand and self-destruction in the other.

And I know — because I’ve lived it — that it doesn’t have to end there.

If you see yourself in my story, maybe it’s time to start yours.

I don’t offer quick fixes. I offer truth, tools, and a way forward. If you’re ready to drop the mask and rebuild, I’ll walk with you every step of the way.
