I Turn Failure Into Fuel.

For nearly two decades, I’ve lived through the hard stuff. Dropping out of college. Business ventures that didn’t pan out. Job losses. A broken marriage. Even a stretch of homelessness. But through it all, I discovered something powerful. Failure isn’t the end. It’s the beginning.

Every setback became a spark. Every fall, a stepping stone. I even wrote a book about it!

Today, I help others see what I’ve come to believe with every fiber of my being: failure can fuel your next breakthrough. I’m on a mission to help people and organizations fail forward.

Are you ready to turn your setbacks into comebacks?

Family comes first.

I may be an international speaker, coach C-level executives, and motivate thousands of humans everyday, but I have always held family at the core of my values.

I reside in Metro Detroit, MI with my wife, Kimberly and our four children, Cayden, Connor, Noah and August.

Whether I'm attending a ballet, rooting at baseball and basketball games, or traveling on a family vacation, I always prioritize making precious memories with those closest to me.
