ABOUT - BACKGROUND, INSPIRATION & MISSION

Born in Los Angeles, James was raised by a single mom.

Without two parents at home, making ends meet was difficult and resulted in 18 changes in residence by the time he was 15.

Being the "new kid" in different schools led to bullying and a decline in his confidence.

James' mother was loving and dedicated herself to educating him, the best way that she could.

Often, James' mother would work 2-3 jobs to help fund his schooling.

She tried her best to keep James out of trouble and away from bad influences.

The pressure of raising a son alone, led to her venting her frustrations onto James.

James learned about the emotional nature of women.

Without a positive and structured masculine role model at home, James was unbalanced.

Being hit by his mother regularly, James learned (by example) that dealing with sadness and hurt, meant resorting to physical violence.

After realizing that his father wasn't going to be a part of his life, James often felt unloved by his mother and abandoned by his father.

His mother would vent her frustrations about James' father onto him. She would demonize his father, while absolving herself from the responsibility of her choices.

Shortsightedly, James' mother decided that she would raise him alone.

James struggled to fit in. He began paying attention to people's behaviors and motives to help safeguard himself from further physical and emotional pain.

He learned to exhibit "people-pleasing" behaviors in hopes that someone would show him the love that he was craving.

Making others laugh felt better than to be excluded by them.

Making his mother laugh, he distracted her from emasculating him and venting her anger towards him.

James was officially a beta male.

In 1992, James lost his apartment and possessions, as they were burned down in the Los Angeles Riots.

This was an enlightening experience for him, as he further learned about human nature and the power of the news media, as it influences societal behaviors.

As James entered his teenage years, his desire to "fit in" amplified.

He saw other teens with better clothes and "cooler" gadgets.

Too young to get a work permit through his high school, James wrongfully justified shoplifting to acquire his desires. 

He started stealing chewing gum packs from a supermarket.

Getting away with these thefts, James set his sights on something pricier.

At the time, James wanted a Sony Walkman AM/FM Cassette Player.

On a shopping trip to his local Kmart, he left his mother's side and told her that he'd be in the electronics section of the store.

Foolishly, James disregarded the security cameras and made several attempts to open the plastic packaging holding the portable stereo.

After removing the cassette player from its packaging, James tried to hide it in his pocket.

James went to go find his mother.  Since she was still shopping, he let her know that he'd be outside, waiting for her to finish.

As soon as James walked outside of the store, a security guard approached him and told him to take the stolen property out of his pocket.

The police department was called and James was released after a report was filed.

James' mother was embarrassed, angry and thoroughly frustrated.. her son was out of control.

Although a consistently good student, James needed structure.

His mother called her brother (James' Godfather/Uncle) for help.

James' Godparents took him into their home, for the remainder of his Freshman school year.

His Godfather was strict and fair, while his Godmother maintained a peaceful and loving home; this was the balance that James lacked.

While there, James learned to listen to and respect his caregivers instead of arguing.

James' grades improved and he became more sociable in school.

Shortly after moving back with his mother, they received a letter stating that James' father had passed away.

James began seeking out positive outlets bfor his energy and creativity and joined his high school wrestling team, as a Sophomore.

Although James lost many of his matches, he humbled himself, practiced hard and never gave up.

One day, during wrestling practice, one of his wrestling teammates walked in with a very unique t-shirt.

James asked him where he had bought it. To his surprise, his teammate had designed and printed the shirt in the school's Graphics class.

The following school year, as a Junior, James found his groove.

James qualified for his high school's honor roll, improved his wrestling skills, printed his own designs onto t-shirts, applied for a work permit (when he turned 15 ½), worked ~20 hours weekly and was able to help his mother financially, so that they would no longer get evicted from the apartments that they had been living in.

Graduating high school at age 16, James began working full-time hours, but still lacked purpose in his life.

As James continued to work, he began courting one of his co-workers.

A year later, they eloped to Las Vegas and were married in a small chapel on The Strip.

3 months after getting married, his wife was carrying their first child.

They were blessed with a loving, intelligent and beautiful daughter in 2003.

Not long after, in 2005, James and his wife were blessed again with a loving, intelligent and handsome son.

Needing to provide food, clothing and a roof over his family's head, James switched jobs and began delivering packages at an express company.

While there, he routinely worked 50+ hours, weekly, while his wife took care of their children and their home.

He would leave home for work, early in the day, while it was still dark outside and arrive back home in the evenings.

The joy of his children running into his arms after he arrived from work, kept him going.

In 2007, James' mother battled breast cancer for the 2nd time in her life.

She passed away at the young age of 57.

With the passing of his mother, James had no surviving parents or grandparents.

James fell into a deep depression as the closest person to him, the woman that had experienced so many ups and downs with him, was permanently gone.

After work, James began to frequent the bars, which robbed time, money and energy from his family.

James was spiraling and felt helpless.

Although James had been raised as a Catholic in his youth, his early adult years were spent as an Agnostic and as an Atheist.

After years of growing resentful over working long, physically demanding hours, with little to no advance in his salary (2008's recession was used as an excuse not to give salary raises) and recognizing the negative impact he was causing on his children with his alcoholism and abusive behavior towards his wife, James selfishly asked for a break from their 13 year marriage.

James had officially replicated what had caused him the most pain as a child; he caused his own children to live without a father.

James' primary inspiration for making a change in his life for the better, are his children.

He wants to help prevent children from experiencing the struggles his children have faced as a result of his shortsighted decisions.

James knows that children coming from a stable, traditional family structure, do better in life.

James recognized that when he neglected God's rules, life became very difficult.

Realizing how selfish James had been acting, he set out to find himself and his purpose in life.

James flew out from his home in Los Angeles to Washington D.C. and began a journey, on foot, back home, while carrying a wooden cross.

As people from across the country stopped to speak with James, they asked him what his purpose was. He spoke with them about his background and what his plan is going forward.

The solution is simple; UNITY is the answer.

Collectively, we must "Love Thy Neighbor As Thyself".

We must learn from history and from our historical teachers.

Many have tried to wake others up and the system has eliminated them.

James knows that the TIME TO UNITE IS NOW.

Regardless of age, sex, race, religion, political views, sports affiliations or any other topics that the media uses to "divide and conquer" us.. WE ARE ON THE SAME TEAM.

There is a better way.

We must upgrade our collective mindset.

Society must respect human life, from conception, onwards.

We must end war.

We must properly educate our youth, to properly function within their family and society as a whole.

We must break free from our current materialistic enslavement and focus our energies into our families.

We must respect our bodies as our temples, by fueling ourselves with nutritious foods and start eliminating known toxins.

We must keep our bodies in shape, by exercising regularly, so that we have a strong vessel with which to navigate life.

We must encourage and hold each other accountable.

We must take pride and have a vested interest in the betterment of others.

We must think before we speak and think before we act.

Life is simple; Trust God, be healthy, take care of your family and look out for your neighbors.

UNITY - WE ARE ONE

Book your mentoring session now.

Society is at its best when men take on their individual role as an alpha male, along with the responsibility that comes with it.

A man must harness his energy and creativity, to be a productive and peaceful member of society.

No one will give you the power to become an alpha, for it's already within you. Therefore, men must give themselves the permission to follow their dreams and accomplish their goals. #PurposeInLife

A man must make a conscious decision to do better.

Men must learn from history and its teachers.
