Southbound Shenanigans: Expansion, Momentum & Full-Circle Moments in Florida
Life… it’s flowing and expanding and moving fast in a way that actually feels right.
This past week has been a whirlwind—in the best way.
I went to one of the most unique networking events I’ve experienced so far here in Florida. It was held on an organic farm—chef-prepared food straight from the land, a bonfire under the night sky, real conversations, real community. No fluff. Just people connecting, sharing ideas, and building something meaningful.
That’s where things start to click.
I met some incredible people and, of course, continued spreading the word about peptides—what they are, how they support longevity, recovery, fat loss, muscle building, and overall performance. These conversations are starting to build on each other. You can feel the momentum picking up, especially here in the growing wellness and biohacking space in Florida.
Back at the Range + On the Hunt Again
I finally made it to a gun range here in Florida.
It felt good to shoot again—but the setup wasn’t what I was hoping for. It was technically outdoors, but structured like you were inside. You’re locked into a lane, no movement, everything is timed, and you have to wait to go switch out your targets.
Standing still and shooting like that? Zero fun.
I’m used to more freedom, more movement—something that actually feels dynamic. So now I’m back on the hunt for a true outdoor range in Florida… something more raw and open, closer to what I’m used to.
Florida has plenty of options. I just need to find the right one.
A Full-Circle Moment at David Wolfe’s Conference
This weekend was spent at David Wolfe’s conference.
Years ago, I used to attend his events out in California—those were massive, thousands of people. Through being at those conferences and through mutual connections, David and I became friends, and over time it’s turned into a really cool friendship.
This time, he invited me to come out as part of the team—to help, to be part of the inner circle, the behind-the-scenes flow, the late-night conversations… all of it.
Being back now, in a completely different role, at a different stage in my life—it hit differently.
And then something wild happened.
I ran into Nadine Artemis—someone I met over a decade ago at one of those big California conferences.
Out of all the people, all those years ago… she remembered me.
That moment… you can’t plan that. It’s one of those confirmations that you’re exactly where you need to be.
Being in the Right Rooms (Wellness, Peptides & Biohacking in Florida)
There’s something powerful about being part of events like this.
Helping organize, setting up tables, answering questions, supporting the flow… while also watching people light up as they learn how to take control of their health through holistic nutrition, lifestyle changes, and advanced tools like peptides.
That’s the work.
And naturally, peptides kept coming up. By day two, people were coming directly to me, asking questions about fat loss peptides, muscle-building peptides, and longevity support.
Little by little… we’re building something real.
Big things are coming. We’re currently working on an app (more details soon), and it’s going to change how people access peptides, biohacking tools, and wellness education in a big way.
Florida Life: The Real, Unfiltered Version
Outside of work, I’m fully in Florida life.
Sun. Training. Growth.
Charlie is still in training mode—specifically learning that not every stray cat is a target. That’s a work in progress.
And speaking of Florida realities…
If you leave your trash outside—even for a night—you will wake up to chaos. Cats will tear it apart, and everything will be scattered across your yard.
Why not just leave it out?
Because if you don’t take your trash out nightly… the cockroaches will take over.
Same goes for dishes. Leave them overnight, and you might wake up to your sink crawling.
Not exactly the “Florida dream” people post about—but it’s real.
The other morning I walked into the kitchen and found a massive cockroach on the floor. Dead—but still… massive.
And that’s with everything clean.
Lesson learned.
Building Something Bigger in Orlando, Florida
Even with the chaos, the pace, the constant movement… I genuinely love what I’m building here in Florida.
There’s a sense of expansion that feels different than anything before.
And now… we’re looking at something big.
A potential castle in Lake Nona.
My friend Cate and I are exploring the idea of purchasing it. It’s currently being used for retreats, wellness events, and networking experiences, sitting right on the water.
The vision?
A space for community. Events. Healing. Connection. Growth.
A hub for wellness, peptides education, and transformation experiences in Orlando.
Possibly even flying people in and out.
It’s still early—but the vision is there. And it’s big.
What’s Next
I haven’t made it to the ocean as much as I’d like yet—but that will change. Once summer hits, it becomes non-negotiable.
For now, everything continues to unfold the way it’s supposed to.
Same mission. Bigger expansion. Stronger direction.
And we’re just getting started.
