"On 10/4/16 and again on 6/29/21 this became very personal for me. In a span of 5 years I went from standing on top of the mountain to lying on my back at the bottom of the “abyss.” Our oldest son, Seth died from fentanyl poisoning at the age of 23 and was soon followed by my wife of 21 years, Prudence succumbing to alcoholism at the age of 46. 2 deaths. So preventable yet predictable at the same time.
Battling my own alcoholism and compulsive gambling I decided to take a stand. On 12/24/17 it all changed. I decided to take a turn on the “better” road and say goodbye to the “bitter” road. I dove headfirst into mental health advocacy and have found ways to be at the best place emotionally, physically and spiritually I have ever been in my life. How I did this and my "why" is what I share each and every day.
Launched The Undeterred Podcast in 2020, which can be found at www.livingundeterred.com. In April 2020 I founded the non-profit Living Undeterred Project (formally The Choices Network, Ltd) to promote and encourage healthy lifestyle choices for teens and young adults.
In 9/2020 I released my first book, "This One's For You-An Inspirational Journey Through Addiction, Death and Meaning" found online at www.livingundeterred.com. On May 12th, 2022 I embarked on my largest project yet, The Living Undeterred US Tour, a 95 day odyssey throughout the US sharing stories and researching ways to actually make a difference."
