So unbelievably grateful to be launching a new series (mini-series) on my podcast over the next five weeks that talks about self-sabotage. What is self-sabotage? That's you making a poor decision which ultimately jeopardizes you from achieving success. We make decisions all the time that are detrimental to all parties that are involved, so I wanted...

A phone call a year later had me left shaking my head: "ummm, why now? Why call me a year later after I had already spurned you the first time?" I was pretty confused, but at a time that money was absolutely essential, I said "fuck it. Let me shove the things that happened aside... Continue Reading →
Three of my students had gone in to take an interview at the United States Embassy in Bangkok. Two of them passed and one of them failed. How did she fail? Well, the common excuse is "he spoke to fast." However, that's exactly what happened. She wasn't able to pick up the -wh question'; therefore, it lead... Continue Reading →
Welcome back to another episode, everyone! You know, teaching British English, as an American teacher, is unbelievably confusing. Blocks of flats would mean "projects" in America. Cottages are regular homes but they come from fairy tales (the ones we see in the books). It's a lot of weird things, so here are some pictures and... Continue Reading →

Six weeks prior to this, my physique was apparently obese, although I look relatively thin. My metabolism before... Continue Reading →
First time I met this man, I was in awe. The size of him was unlike anything I had ever seen in my life. If I can compare him to Evander Holyfield, one of America's famous boxers, he's a bit close. Nonetheless, after chatting it up with him and hearing/seeing his charisma + his story,... Continue Reading →
Hello, everyone! This is a special project I've been working on with another mentor and coach from Shroud, England by the name of Luke Burrows. The focus of this is since we're both mentors and coaches, we encourage people to send questions in throughout the week for them to be featured on our show. On... Continue Reading →
Wow. What a journey. I can't be grateful enough for everything that has happened in my life. Honestly, going back to where I was 10 years ago?! In a dying relationship, moving into a new apartment, but three months later, a girl by the name of Satomi Nakagawa came into my life -- urging me... Continue Reading →
While I was sitting on my couch, stuffing my face with pepperoni pizza (yes, I cheat sometimes, but blame my trainer that put me through a 1-hour gauntlet), I realized at that given moment what could've been. Back in Las Vegas, my colleagues and I from the College of Southern Nevada's Dental Faculty Practice would... Continue Reading →
