Day 27 of the Grateful Challenge
What a year. What a journey. What a blessing.

As I look back on the past year, my heart is full of gratitude — for my wife Gwen, my daughter Lexie, her husband Dylan, and our pack of four-legged kids and grandkids who bring daily joy.

2025 became the year I chose change. By January’s end, I stepped into sobriety — and I’m grateful every day for the clarity and strength it has brought.
Shield of Faith Missions’ Be Resilient Clinic helped launch that transformation, and I’m forever thankful for their support.

I’m grateful for doctors who listened, cared, and guided me through health challenges.
For completing the Spartan Leadership Program with the Travis Manion Foundation — and for the incredible Cohort 7 family that came with it.

The ToosDay Crüe has kept the fire burning all year long, and The MisFitNation is closing in on 600 episodes because of YOU — the listeners, guests, and supporters who believe in our mission of grit, resilience, and storytelling.

Here’s to gratitude, growth, community, and purpose.
Stack Victories. Challenge Accepted. Do Hard Things. Don’t talk about it… be about it.
