Leave a comment

Hey everyone! Check out my campaign on Teespring for my first ever #ypowr shirts!

⠀⠀ ⠀

As some of you may know, I’ve been working on ypowr for a little over 4 years now. Some of you might be wondering what ypowr is? Well, ypowr is the power of your purpose. ypowr as a brand is all about positivity, growth, motivation, support, good vibes, health + fitness + wellness, celebration, prayer, laughter, reflection, and all that good stuff.

⠀⠀ ⠀

ypowr is a reminder that you have a purpose and that the power of your purpose is strong enough to get you through anything and everything this life has to offer. So what is your purpose in this world? What is your why? Whatever it is, let this shirt be your daily reminder.

⠀⠀ ⠀

Supporting ypowr means recognizing, supporting and encouraging anything and everything that good in this world. 

⠀⠀ ⠀

Thanks in advance for your support!

(July 4, 2016) The comeback begins.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
I’m a runner. I’ve run three 50ks, four Full Marathons and a handful of Halfs, 10ks and 5ks. But in December of 2014, I hurt my back while attempting a 50mi trail run. The injury sidelined me for a few months and I decided step away from running for all of 2015 to fully heal. It worked!
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Also in 2015: I received my Master’s degree, I married my best friend AND we found out she was pregnant with out first child! Needless to say, there was a lot going on in 2015.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
As for the pregnancy, I wanted to experience the whole pregnancy with her…. cravings and all. With that said, I packed on a few extra pounds. Just to be clear, I would do it all over again and do it all the same way.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Fast forward to June 23, 2016: Jaelyn Rose was brought into this world! I promised myself that I would be a cool & fit dad for her. Today, with Beachbody/22 Hard Minute Hard Corps, I took a step in that direction.
⠀⠀⠀ ⠀
Through this IG account, follow my “transformation” and journey back to being the healthy & fit runner I once was, but this time, I’m gonna be doing it as a dad… a cool dad 😎!
