Mark's Why
I went through my young adulthood like a pinball. As a youth, I always had coaches on the field guiding me. But when I entered college and adulthood, I lost focus and luckily I found a mentor and coach before losing my very life.
There comes a point in every adult's life where they need encouragement and direction from sources beyond their friends and family, who often see them in a certain way. This external support is essential for solidifying identity and ensuring you're on the right career path. If I didn't find mine, I would not be alive today.
Looking back, when I ended up in bad spots with addictions or mental health issues, it was because I had lost direction and purpose and this can happen at any phase of life. In high school and middle school, coaches and athletic endeavors helped me stay to focused. Therefore, after finding my redemption I decided to create a program to help others get unstuck from whatever challenge they have in front of them.
So why do I do this? Because I'm fortunate to have survived my young adulthood, and I want all of God's children to be safe, healthy, and free to worship and spread His word with healthy minds and bodies.
