I grew up as a child who was overweight my entire life. My mother was a single mom and we did not have much money so I took solace in food to comfort me. I was popular in school because of my friends and personality but I never had a girlfriend. As time went on, I gained more weight and spiraled into a deep depression and thought that there must be something wrong with me.

This took a major toll on my self-esteem and my life became meaningless. I was raised in a very religious home but the teachings of religion brought me more self hatred then freedom. I was told how I was a sinner and how bad of a person I was. I was told that I should love other people but I didn’t even love myself. I went to religion for guidance and it only brought me deeper into self hatred and depression. Jesus tells us in the bible to love our neighbor as we love ourselves but the key point there is if you do not love yourself how are you going to love another?

I decided to pursue my Psychology degree and began taking classes on relationships. It was in those bleak and desperate times that I began a journey that would change the course of my life and the lives of everyone around me. I began to immerse myself into the knowledge of social dynamics and new age psychology. Rather then finding myself, I began to create the person that I always knew was inside of me yearning to escape and shed the shackles of fear and depression. I created a new life based on principles that have been known for thousands of years and were tested and practical.

It was in this new creation of “me” that I began my career as a dating, relationship and self-help coach. What we now teach is the result of a journey that started in a deep dark place and transcended the darkness. This information has changed not only my life but the lives my students as well. The countless hours of teaching these principals proves their power as I have watched great transformation occur.

I have witness the principles we teach change the lives of people who were consumed by anger. I have watched these principles change the lives of the shy and those severely lacking self esteem. I continue to watch these principals change my life and the lives of the employees of my company. By applying the principles we teach you will open your life up to inner peace and happiness.

Although it was almost 30 years ago, I can still remember my first kiss. It was on Suicide Hill in the middle of winter. I was a middle school kid who was sort of pressured into it by all my friends and so was she. This first kiss didn’t even lead to a second, let alone a relationship. That wouldn’t happen until another year or so.

Once I finally got into a relationship I felt like I had accomplished something. I felt good about myself abd I finally felt like I fit in. At the time I was very happy, but in hindsight what I was putting too much weight and value into being in a relationship. This set the pace for many years to come where I defined my self worth on whether or not I was in a relationship. How good it was didn’t really matter that much to me because deep down I believed a bad relationship was better than none at all.

This misguided philosophy was something I carried from my junior high days into my thirties. Even though I spent so many years with a broken compass, I would not go back and reset my brain if the opportunity was placed in front of me. The journey has made me who I am today and along the way I became a father. I didn’t make mistakes nor did I fail. I simply was being myself.

Eventually I came to a point in my life where I stopped needing to be in a relationship simply to have a girlfriend, find a wife, or to have the perfect storybook family. It’s fine to want those things but to need them and let them define you as a success or failure, makes for an unhealthy self and an unhealthy love life. Now I approach relationships in a much different way. I believe there are multiple spheres in each relationship and there must be harmony and compatibility in each for a relationship to succeed long term.

Relationships are rarely easy but overall they have been very kind to me. The bruises and wisdom I have gained through them have given me an opportunity to help others. I am humbled by the greatness that has been revealed to me in the people who I have worked with. I truly believe everyone has something amazing inside them but for some reason, many don’t believe it. This ultimately means the world never gets to see it. I co-founded NSS because we have a chance to make a real difference in people’s lives with very simple and honest tools.
