How has it already been almost 3 months?

Here we are—almost three months into my move to Florida. I’m finally settling into a groove… and at the same time, realizing how much I still don’t know.

The exciting part? I can officially get from my house to the gym… and from my house to Sprouts… without GPS 😂
That’s it. Everywhere else? Still very much a “map required” situation.

Life has been full, fast, and honestly a little chaotic in the best way.

When I got back from Minnesota, I got wrecked—full-on taken out for about four days. “Down” for me still meant I made it to the gym, just at a much lower capacity… and then slept for like 15 hours after. Thank God for peptides, the sun, and Upgrade Labs (their energy bed and PEMF blanket are lifesavers). I bounced back pretty quickly, but those few days were rough.

Massive sinus pressure—like my head was in a vice grip. Sneezing nonstop, blowing my nose every five minutes, completely off balance. One day I was so out of it that I literally hit myself in the face with a barbell doing push presses. My brain just didn’t send the “move your face” signal fast enough… and the bar came right up under my chin 😅

It hurt—but honestly, everything already hurt, so it just blended into the chaos.

I cannot wait for summer.
Ocean time. Sun. Salt water. Long beach days.

Although… I still don’t know when I’m going to find time for that. It’s hard to spend a full day at the beach when Charlie is at home in a kennel. And speaking of Charlie…

He has officially started digging massive holes all over the backyard to lay in and keep cool—and it’s not even that hot yet. So… we’ll see how summer goes for him 😂

Work-wise, things are moving. I’m making friends at the gym, building connections, and working my butt off to spread the word about Trident Peptide Technologies. Playing the Google game has been… interesting—especially when you can’t even say the word “peptides” without getting flagged.

We’re growing slowly, but it’s all word of mouth and referrals—which honestly says everything. People love what we do, and that matters more than anything.

A friend of mine, Avo (David Wolfe), will be in Florida at the end of March for a three-day conference. He reached out and asked if I’d be there to help and hang with the crew. I spent some time with him in Canada back in November—he’s the best. Just a genuinely cool human. I’m really looking forward to that—meeting new people, making connections, and learning.

And… I drive. A lot.

I now fully understand Florida traffic. It is awful.
Within my little 12-minute bubble of gym, work, and MMS—it’s fine. But outside of that? Wild.

It takes me 1 hour and 50 minutes to get to martial arts… and sometimes up to 3 hours and 20 minutes to get home.

The other day I was driving back and legitimately added “buy a helicopter and hire a pilot” to my needs list 😂
At this point… it might be worth it. I could train four days a week instead of two.

From the end of March through October, life is about to go full speed:

• End of March: Avo’s conference

• April: 8K charity run with the MMS community for New Hope for Kids

• April: Back to Minnesota for clients

• May: Toronto

• June: Minnesota again (Ainsleigh’s graduation, K3, clients)

• End of June / July: Ainsleigh comes to Florida for two weeks ❤️

• August: Back to Toronto for martial arts training

• October: Minnesota for K4

Summer is going to fly.

And honestly… Florida?

I love it.

It’s warm—but not always hot. Today was 65 and sunny. For me, that’s cold… but also perfect. It’s the kind of day where you actually get things done instead of laying in the sun all day.

The people here are just… happier. It’s rare to have a negative interaction. The sun is out, and people feel it. It changes everything.

I was talking to a guy at the gym today—no idea what his name is (he’s from Brazil and his accent is so thick I couldn’t understand him when he told me 😅). He told me I’m like a “box of surprises.”

Apparently, the combination of lifting heavy, shooting, martial arts, and deep spiritual work isn’t something people here see often. I get a lot of:

“Who are you?”
“Where did you come from?”

And somehow, a simple “hi” always turns into a 20-minute deep, random, life conversation.

And I love that.

There’s so much to do here. So much nature. So many opportunities.

Yesterday, one of my peptide and nutrition clients from Minnesota was in Orlando and stopped by the salon to say hi. It was so good to see her in person, catch up, and actually connect face-to-face instead of through a screen.

Moments like that remind me why I do all of this.

Still building. Still adjusting. Still figuring it out.

But we’re moving.

And it feels right.
