📣 Life Sucks. Gosh, I Love It.

Life is a lot like my doughnut shop.

Some mornings, everything runs smooth—the dough is rising, the team is clicking, the vibe is right.
Other days? The fryer breaks, the order’s wrong, or someone calls in.

It’s wild.
It’s messy.
It’s unpredictable.

And yeah—sometimes? It sucks.

But even in the chaos—it’s worth it.
You just keep showing up.
You adjust.
And you keep building.

That’s life.
That’s where I’ve been.
Working. Wrestling. Listening.
Healing.

For a long time, I was always “on.”
I talked a lot—platforms, posts, podcasts.

But if I’m honest?

I got so sick of my own fake sh*t.
Sick of performing.
Sick of pretending I was okay.
Sick of saying the right things but never slowing down long enough to feel any of it.

I had influence.
I had platforms… but it was all surface.
Loud, but not deep. Seen, but not known.

Most of what I said came from pain and protection—not peace.

So then I chose BUSY.

Busy doesn’t mean healed.
Sometimes “busy” is just another way to avoid the healing we desperately need.
I thought if I kept moving, I’d eventually feel whole.

But I didn’t realize how important the direction was.
Not all movement is progress.
Not all hustle leads to healing.

Because healing isn’t found in the hustle.
It’s found in the quiet work.
The deep rest.
The hidden prep.
The back-of-house grind when no one’s watching.

So I stepped back.
Got quiet.
Did the deep work behind the scenes—the kind that doesn’t get likes or applause.

Now, I’m coming back.
But hear me clearly:

I’m not back for anyone but myself.

Not to prove anything.
Not to chase anything.
But to be something—fully present, fully honest, fully alive.

This isn’t just a comeback.

This is a movement.
A movement against the mundane.
Against the noise.
Against the pressure to always have it all together.

A movement toward life.
Toward health.
Toward purpose.

Maybe you feel like I did—burned out, worn down, sick of your own sh*t.
Tired of being tired.
Stuck in the past.

Good news though—if you’re reading this, that means you’re still alive.
Still here.
Still breathing.
Still able to choose something different.

Are you ready to move—toward something unknown but deeply real?

This is what Old Chapel is all about.
A different rhythm.
A deeper perspective.
A new way forward.

I’m bringing that energy—encouraging, building, calling things out, and speaking truth.
If you’re with me, let’s go.

Let’s LIVE THE MISSION.
