  • Mindset Matters

In 2010, I stepped off a bus with nothing but gray sweats and a question: Why Not? Five years in prison had stripped me to my core, but that question rebuilt me—brick by brick, mile by mile. Today, I’m hauling freight across the country with my wife, living a dream I once thought impossible. That’s the power of having the right Mindset—it Matters. It’s not just about surviving; it’s about choosing to thrive, no matter the odds.  "Mindset Matters" is my story—Join me, as I share some of my Life Experiences through my journey from Incarceration to Transformation, raw and unfiltered, with lessons I learned along the way.  This is for anyone who’s ever wondered, “Can I start over?” My answer: Why Not? Join me on this journey—grab the book, share your own “Why Not?” moment, and let’s inspire each other.
