Inspiration and Hope - (Overcoming Adversity):
I had cancer 3x - hip bone cancer left me disabled, lung and then pancreas of which I only had a 5% chance to make it.  I knew I had to make a full overall of my entire life to just have a chance to beat pancreatic cancer.

I changed my diet, began exercising again, and the most and toughest work was on my mental outlook. I had to retrain my head to believe that I could beat cancer even though eight specialists told me I would be dead by May 2022.  I’m over four years cancer free. In 2023, I had 4 surgeries every few months over the year that was a 3-phase plan to implant the largest, most complex custom titanium hip implant ever attempted.  Then bone lengthen procedure of the femur to get the 4 inches back that hip cancer took.   Would love share some of the tools I learned and help someone in your community along the way.
I had the privilege to co-author a best seller that has been recently released called "Breaking the Silence: Voices of Survivors."  Amazon link below. 

Religion/Spirituality:
There were three encounters I had with pastors relating to healing and praying over me.   Looking back over the last five years, God has it all planned to lead me from New Zealand back to Arkansas.  
I have overcome cancer 3X, 2 pulmonary embolisms, 10 months in the hospital, 13 major surgeries, 10+ minor procedure and 3 hospital contracted infections.  I overcame pancreatic cancer with less than a 5% chance to survive and given a year to live, a two year chronic infection I was to would never be cured, and I am a few months from walking when I was told I would be on crutches or a wheelchair the rest of my life.  There are too many things for it to be coincidental.  I believe in miracles and healing.  God gave me a way out of all this to a message of inspiration and hope.   
 
Entrepreneurship:  I’m originally from the US, but I’ve travelled around the world many places and settled in New Zealand about 17 years ago.  I was an IT dude by trade, but I started a kettle corn business with a guy that I met in the boxing gym randomly. They did not have kettle corn in New Zealand.  I figured it would work, and boy was I right! 
We started out working at the markets on the weekends and progressed to 2 factories, 15 staff, and so many popcorn products I cannot even count!  We service all New Zealand supermarkets and international markets such as Singapore, Malaysia, South Pacific Islands etc.  We are the number #2 popcorn in New Zealand. I would love to share some of the trials and tribulations, pitfalls and wins we have gone through over the last 12 years to be one of the most successful snack companies in NZ.
 
 
I don’t have a podcast (YET), but I always try to put myself in the host’s shoes and think, “What kind of guest would I want?”  Someone that is knowledgeable about the subject, able to hold space, take queues from the questions and follow the lead how the host wants the podcast to go.  I am extremely engaging and charismatic, upbeat and positive.
