Stuck in Paradise
We are further than 50 miles away from “home” (the Texas Hill Country area) so my first instinct was “How can we get home asap?” We can’t drive this truck. We have our Airstream and everything we own here at the beach with us. What do we do?
Continuing Forward
How do you continue day to day life in the wake of tragedy?
We’ve all been faced with this confusing and difficult dilemma (probably many times) in our lives.

The One Habit That Saves Your Health
If you can master this, you’ll never struggle with your health and fitness again.

It’s been healing at what feels like a snail’s pace, and I was almost back to full function, until two days ago.
The gym we’ve been going to has a separate room with a “rig,” like you’d see in a CrossFit gym.
Why not jump up and see if I can still do the gymnastics move called a “bar muscle-up”?

Want to actually look like you workout?
Ever tried to get in shape or lose weight by “eating better” and “moving more”?

It doesn’t work — and here’s why:
$260k in Debt
It’s 5am as I’m writing this.
