Mr. Whiskey

Healing & Recovery
Suicide prevention, addiction recovery, trauma, anxiety, depression, mental health, domestic violence awareness, sexual violence awareness, and human trafficking awareness.

Military, Leadership, & Service
Veteran transition, military life and culture, leadership, communication, discipline, identity, community, responsibility, and rebuilding after service.

Faith, Purpose, & Identity
Scripture, relationships, calling, broken dreams, restoration, biblical encouragement, church-hurt, digital ministry, sermons, international evangelism, and life purpose.

Comedy, Media, & Connection
Podcasting, storytelling, social media, personal branding, comedy, audience connection, addressing difficult subjects, and building conversations that reach people.


My work spans multiple fields, but it all serves one mission: 

Helping people confront what breaks them, rebuild what was damaged, and use their story to serve others. 

I speak across multiple subjects because people are multi-dimensional. Mental health, addiction, trauma, military transition, leadership, relationships, faith, family, comedy, and communication are not separate worlds — they are connected parts of how people survive, rebuild, and serve.

Warriors Of Hope Book Launch

It was an honor to host and speak at this event, where we were focused on domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking awareness, along with general trauma recovery and putting forward hope.

We donated money to the She Thrives Foundation. Created by Paulina Flores, who was one of the contributing authors, it helps get money to women in domestic violence or other situations, so that they can get what they need to leave, such as education or other opportunities.

In addition to introducing the event, other authors, and facilitating the different segments, I spoke about the necessity of male sexual assault awareness, why men need to be involved with these kinds of spaces where most men feel shunned, the power of vulnerability, and the importance of hope.
