👋🏾I want to know what exactly I am voting for and how my vote impacts my household and my actual life!

But the only thing available is "They Not Like Us" .....No Kendrick..... and unfortunately not being the other person is only good enough if you just vote party lines.

But what about the rest of us? The rest of us that try to take an honest realistic view at all candidates and would prefer to make our selections based on the Agendas and Policies they support and how it impacts the life of my family.

This is why I reached out to former Clark County Commissioner Lawrence Weekly and NAACP Branch #1111 - Las Vegas President Quentin Savwoir to help me put together a nonpartisan voter education workshop to 'EDUCATE' us on 'Policies NOT Politics'

If you are a dad and you are unsure about voting in this climate then I invite you out to learn a little bit about the impact of your vote in your own family.

🗳️ Tired of the endless political bickering that distracts from what really matters? I hear you. As a dad, I’m not concerned with who’s the loudest or the flashiest—I care about how my vote will shape my family’s future, financial stability, and well-being.

👋🏾 Hey Fellow Dads,

Have you ever thought you were doing everything right as a dad, only to find out later that you missed something BIG? That was me with my daughter. I thought I was listening to her, but what I was really doing was brushing off her feelings and jumping straight to solutions. It wasn’t until years later that I realized just how much that affected her—and our relationship.

In my latest blog, I’m sharing a story about a time my daughter told me, “Dad, you never listened to me.” 😔 It was a hard pill to swallow, but it completely changed how I approach being a dad. The lesson learned? Active Listening—it’s a game-changer.

This isn’t just about hearing words; it’s about connecting with our kids on a deeper level, understanding their feelings, and being there for them when it counts. Trust me, when you master this skill, you can avoid years of emotional distance with your kids.

Want to learn how to start listening better today? Check out my latest blog where I break it all down and give you practical tips to become the dad your kids can truly open up to. 💬👇🏾

🍻 Cheers to connecting deeper with our kids!

🚨 Netflix Recommendation: The Lost Daughter 🚨

My wife and I recently watched The Lost Daughter on Netflix, and let me tell you—it’s WILD. Without giving too much away, it's a powerful story about Kathy, a young mother who gave her daughter up for adoption. Years later, she embarks on a crazy journey to uncover what really happened to her daughter, who has been missing since she was 14.

It’s a gut-wrenching ride filled with twists and emotional complexities. What stood out to me the most, though, was the intense dynamic between Kathy and the adoptive family. It raises deep questions about the nature of parenthood: Is a child still "yours" if you didn't raise them? How connected are we to children we didn't biologically create?

As a father in a blended family myself, these questions hit home. I’ve been raising my stepson since he was 2, and though he’s not biologically mine, he's my son. It’s an interesting, emotional, and sometimes complicated dynamic that many of us in blended families face.

This documentary really makes you reflect on the bonds we share with our kids—whether biological or not—and the responsibilities we take on as parents, step-parents, or guardians.

If you’re in a blended family or navigating co-parenting, this documentary will have you thinking long after it’s over. I highly recommend you check it out when you have the time. It’s not just a story—it’s a conversation starter.

💥 Are Financial Disagreements Stressing Your Relationship? 💥

Did you know that up to 40% of divorces are due to financial issues? 😳

Money matters are one of the leading causes of tension in relationships, but it doesn’t have to be that way.

But here’s the good news: Financial disagreements don’t have to drive a wedge between you and your partner. In fact, they can actually bring you closer together—if handled the right way. 👫

In my latest blog, I share a personal story about how my wife and I navigated a major money disagreement, and the lessons we learned that helped us turn conflict into compromise. 💬

🎯 The key? Open communication, compromise, and a budget that meets both of your needs. 🎯

What if I told you that keeping just one credit card instead of canceling them all could actually bring more peace than sticking to a rigid plan? It’s all about finding what works for both of you.

👉 Ready to strengthen your relationship and find financial harmony? Check out the full blog for actionable tips on handling financial disagreements without damaging your relationship.

🛎️In a different life, I was an instructor for the Professional Fitness Institute. I taught all of their capstone education—the in-person, hands-on stuff that truly defines fitness.

One of my favorite guest instructors was Tommy Boyer-Kendrick. He used to always say that his job wasn't just about making athletes faster, stronger, or able to jump higher; it was about making them injury-proof. In other words, the more proper and deliberate work athletes put in, the better they could withstand the rigors of their sport.

In other words: Resilience‼️

This concept has stuck with me, and I've found it to be just as true in other areas of life. As a father and husband, we each need to put in our own proper and deliberate individual work to withstand the rigors of fatherhood and marriage.

Life, much like sports, is full of adversity. Some challenges are small, requiring just a simple tweak or adjustment to overcome. Others are life-altering, demanding a much deeper level of resilience and recovery. But in both cases, just like with any injury, you must properly rehabilitate and find your way back to full strength.

Here’s what I mean:

Small Setbacks: These are the daily challenges—missed opportunities, minor disagreements, or unexpected obstacles. Like a minor sprain, they might slow us down temporarily, but with the right mindset and a small adjustment, we can quickly get back in the game.

Major Challenges: Then there are the major adversities—losses, significant life changes, or deep emotional wounds. These are the equivalent of a major injury in sports. They require time, patience, and a thorough rehab process. You can’t rush through it, but with dedication and the right support, you can come back stronger.

Rehabilitation and Recovery: Whether the challenge is big or small, the key is to engage in proper rehabilitation—physically, emotionally, and mentally. Just as an athlete would follow a recovery plan, we too must take deliberate steps to heal, grow, and regain our strength after facing adversity.

Returning to the Game: The goal, always, is to get back in the game. Life’s adversities are not meant to sideline us permanently. With the right approach, we can return to our roles—whether as parents, partners, or professionals—better equipped to handle whatever comes our way.

Just like in sports, the work we put in to overcome adversity ensures that we can continue to perform at our best. Whether it’s a minor tweak or a major comeback, each step in the recovery process builds the resilience we need to thrive in the long run.
