The Clock is Running Out.
February 16, 2026 Are there any significant stressors in your life? This is probably one of my favorite questions to ask any patient during their journey with me at Hope Upper Cervical. Most people will laugh at that question and provide one of two answers. The most common: they brush it off as an annoyance, […]
How do you celebrate?
February 9, 2026 How you choose to celebrate matters. The actual act of celebration is instilled in us from our earliest memories. Birthday, Engagement, Wedding, Anniversary to name a few examples. But rarely is how we celebrate taken into consideration, especially when it is not something as grand and infrequent as a wedding. Take for […]
How often do you assess yourself?
February 2, 2026 Too often we are caught in the complacency trap of comfort. Like a wise man once said, the more you avoid discomfort, the more you make misery your master. Choosing to not assess yourself is a choice that will lead to a life of misery. Misery is the result of attempting to […]
How do I use hard times?
January 26, 2026 Every single one of us is going to have a season of life where we experience hard times. This is not something we can willfully choose to skip in the human experience. The difference, though, lies in how we choose to handle the burden of the cross when it is placed upon […]

The Value Equation
December 29th, 2025 I was approached with a question that was quite challenging this week. Does attention equal value? Let’s take it one step further: does the right attention actually equal value? Seems like a simple enough question but in the context of our highly “connected” society I was taken aback by this. If you […]
Identity crisis
December 22, 2025 When I first opened a business, one of the suggestions a mentor gave me was to join support groups for the various illnesses we would help people overcome. His suggestion was good hearted in that the focus was on gaining an understanding of the cross the patients carried in their journey as […]
The Principle of Time
December 15, 2025 Principle 6: There is no process that does not require Time I was once told that anything worth doing is going to take more time than you ever thought. Being young and dumb and raised in the nascent world of Amazon Prime, I am blessed to have a foot in two very […]
