Josh got his first BMX bike from his father when he was a kid and it almost immediately consumed his life. At 17 years, he became a Pro BMX Athlete and was riding Dew Tours, X-Games and competing internationally at the highest possible level. At that point, he was 21 years old and felt like he had everything. But, after a nasty crash, his life was threatened.

Josh hit his head and went to a local urgent care to make sure something more serious wasn’t happening. He had no damage from the crash, but there was a brain tumor taking up the left half of his brain. Immediate surgical removal was necessary.

After two more brain tumor diagnosis, he began researching health and nutrition. He was determined to prioritize his health and take the longevity of his life and the vitality of his brain into his own hands. As he progressed, he became passionate about helping others optimize their health and performance in all areas of life including career, Relationships, and physical health.

As the passion to support others grew, and after a third brain tumor diagnosis, Josh got really clear on his higher purpose in life and left BMX competition to start his business speaking around the world and Coaching entrepreneurs, athletes, executives, and organizations. Josh became certified through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition as a health coach, became certified through Ketogenic.com as a Keto Specialist, has become well versed in Neuro Linguistic Programming, read countless research articles, stacks of books and communicated with every expert he could.

Josh’s goal in life is to impact the world in the most positive way and leave it better, stronger and healthier than when he came into it. He says, “No matter how long you have to live, find meaning.”
