My Journey, My Truth, My Life

Every person has a story. As a person I have learnt that each person is an individual has their own book. Its a simple as respecting the person for what they are and have gone through. Listen and learn, which I continue to do each day.
Its hard to write a story of my life.
I can go on about my achievements but you can read those in the "Experience and Achievements' Section. Where I am in my life, right now I can say that I am coming into my journey and what purpose I world. I am very proud of each of these and it has been a lot of work, but in saying that we all have it in us to do what I have done
At different stages of my life I have been attracted to particular music, cultures, teachings, sports, characters, people and food. Each has played a part in shaping me into the person I have become this day.
I have found I have a love for the Native American culture and the beautiful customs and teachings they can give. In some ways.
I have been in the Health and Fitness industry for 25 years and have been involved in different roles such as Swim Teacher, Lifeguard, Fitness Centre Management, Personal Trainer, Massage Therapist, Lecturer and Workshop Presenter. These all have helped me learn about people, life and about my strengths.
We grow and take things that become so significant to us, we don't realize its just one skill or teaching that will shape you into the person you have always wanted to be. In 1996, I was very privileged to run my own Natural Healing business "Positive Health Massage ' which is now "White Warrior Health', worked for various professional sporting clubs including Bulleen Inter Kings and Cronulla Sharks and I lectured at various Natural Therapy colleges and TAFES around Victoria. This was only the start of my journey I am just finding out
In the last 10 years, I was a former Australian Heavyweight Champion Professional Wrestler, which I had to retire due to a major back injury, I went back to University and I was a single dad to my young child. This to me has been the biggest life lesson. I had to be more and I had to get my life back on track and at that time was to get a Degree as a teacher and settle into a school and life will go on. This was an important foundation decision to make and the right one i will say, but i had more to learn and give to myself and the world
I started DDPYoga, a fitness system started by former 3 time World Champion Professional wrestler Diamond Dallas Page (www.ddpy.com) because my body had broken down and through hard work for 8 years i have become the first DDPY qualified instructor in Australasia. I had the privilege of assisting DDP in his first Melbourne DDPY seminar in 2015. This has also eventuated into presenting at various festivals like the Mind Body Spirit Festival, where i have completed my own live DDPY performances and promoting the natural healing side of WWHealth

I completed my degree in Physical Education with level 2 honors, and one the greatest gift I received was the amount of work i did with under privileged children and children with a disability. The amount of skills I learnt just working with the wonderful teachers and how to actually see people for what they are and what I could do to enhance their lives in some little way. I also had so many great mentors that gave me the real knowledge that i needed and gave me the opportunity to become the teacher i wanted to be, thus I have presented for the Australia Physical Education Council of Victoria (2016-2019) writing AcePE: Glitz n Glam games book, due for release. In thank them for this.

The next stage of my life was interesting. I met a number of magnificent individuals that changed my life and made me into the person i always wanted. Again they opened me up to special gifts and some damaged goods that were inside me. I now know it was the battle of the past and the path to my Oz. I always say the yellow brick road is where we all wish to be and have super powers to make our lives better. I know now it was in me, I just needed to be safe to believe in what gifts I have to offer the world and grow as a human being.
Red Horse of Native American Productions cam into my life to help me through a tough time and introduced me to some of the basic principles of living a for filling life. I love the culture, music and teachings of the Native Americans and Red Horse and his beautiful wife helped me become more engaged in their culture and become aware of personal values that I hold for my own growth.
I started my career as a school teacher and I am still proudly teaching at a school today with a co ordinator's role and as district leader of sport. this has been the foundation and security that i needed. I have kept massaging and being involved in an CPE/ Education advisory role with the Massage Association of Australia, but this is where I have had my greatest life lessons.
I went through a rough time in the years of 2019-2020. I suffered with some emotional stress that were revealed to be "Past Traumas'. It was hard, not being able to get up sometimes, fighting the good vs bad in your head, acting each day and not feeling worthy. The invisible boy, not heard, not seen and even to me i know that for decades I was hiding true pain and ashamed to be me. I suffered through major anxiety and stress related medical problems culminating in being transported to hospital as I laid on the side of the road. I thank the beautiful people who helped me that day.
I had medical tests and to my horror they were treating me as a possible "Stroke" victim. My heart sunk and I was just scarred, plain and simple. In the months leading up to that moment I didn't realize the hurt I was going through and how I tried to stop the pain. You as person really don't know until you look back at the past and just shake your head and think..."What was I doing", knowing you were just trying to get through life and the hard times.
The hardest thing was looking at myself and seeing a person who has battled through life and had to make changes to become better. In every sense in my life, i had to look at how and why i was the way I was. I had to be true to myself and my feelings, but also love me. That I found was lacking and non existent in that way and i couldn't truly believe in myself because I didn't know how to, due to past hurt and programming. When you see the world through different eyes, the horizon looks so much different, through the eyes of your soul and protecting your spirit first.
I had knowledge of personal development, believing in yourself and all that comes with it. It was great knowledge but when you are scared to be you, there is nothing that can help you until you can help yourself. I had definitely done a lot in my life and I was proud but the biggest battle was coming. I sought professional help which was the first step to opening up and again, I am grateful to my counselor that assisted me in this stage of my life.
I found the gift of writing and I have written my thoughts in poetry many times. In the times of hurt I found peace in the pen and paper. I also found my love for music, keeping as fit as possible, indulging back into my hobbies and the creativity that comes with playing piano and bass.

I could see what I was missing out on but it was only till I met Greg Riley and Michael McNair who graciously invited me into the Shadow Warrior course. This would show me one thing. I am important and I have a lot more to give to the world with the super powers I have been given to help others. This course gave me the safety release and be me with absolutely no judgement, something i feared and had brought into my life for decades. Healing and having the chance to feel safe to speak, grow and know that I am worthy, even in the darkest times. To cut a long story short, I learned about my own values that I held, I understand the power of acceptance of others and where I have been on my journey, forgiveness and to understand that to become more you have to face your fears and walk strong and proud. It wasn't as simple as what I wrote, i had my times but I am proud to say that I am on the train to happiness.
Today I am gaining the peace, and i will say we are on this journey and i have my days believe me. I am gaining an understanding so I can become the person have always wanted to be. I love writing and will continue to do so. I am looking within me for reading and gaining knowledge on a various topics within the personal development field, a lot that I have read before but with the this new inner strength of character i can see it for more than what it is.
From my journey i believe in have these what i call my "Belt of Powers" that have been gifted to me to help myself and others

Thank you for reading my story
Thank you for reading my story
Emotions are part of lifeEmotions are the real life experience that make the difference between an artist, a master to their craft and just another puppet
....Taking that first step.....
Remembering a moment, or a person or maybe a situation is a wonderful thing as its a time in your life when you decided to step forward without fear and judgment and take control of your destiny.
|
....A thought of the day.....The small things in life are the best. If you have to impress someone by material gifting they aren't looking into your heart, into your soul and spirit. Looking at the real person that can offer than much more and help create the start of a wonderful journey......
....Strength of the soul and your spirit.....
Having true strength is not only standing up for yourself but walking through the fog to see the sunlight of you life you desire.
