As a young adult Brian had a run in with the law.  That experience and seeing his so called “friends” go to prison for armed robbery, quickly encouraged him that a life of crime was not for him.

Unfortunately, Brian went on to a marriage which ended because he was unfaithful, and his life was plagued with mental health issues including, depression, anxiety, and a suicide attempt in 2020 before he turned it around.

Today Brian is a life reclamation coach and is helping others conquer their Everest in their own lives.
