I was only 21 years old…I was a pro BMX biker and I felt like I had everything. But, after a nasty crash, my life was threatened. I had hit my head and went to a local urgent care to make sure something more serious wasn’t happening. I had no damage from the crash, but there was a brain tumor taking up the left half of my brain. Immediate surgical removal was necessary. I came out okay and defied all odds by getting back on my bike only five weeks later. That was in 2010. Now, almost a decade later my life has shifted in some wonderful and very unexpected ways. After two more brain tumor diagnosis, I started researching health and nutrition… and now I coach others to help them reach their optimal health.

Sentenced to 65 years in a Texas prison, Damon West once had it all. He came from a great family, in a home full of God, love, support, and opportunities to reach any dream. A natural born leader, with good looks and charm, and a three-year starting quarterback, he appeared to be the all-American kid living out his dream. Underneath this facade, however, was an addict in the early stages of his disease. After suffering childhood sexual abuse by a babysitter at the age of nine, he began putting chemicals into his body to alter the way he felt, starting with drinking and smoking. By the age of 12, he would escalate to marijuana use. In his mind, he was not hurting anyone by smoking pot; in reality, he was feeding the monster that is addiction.
