How Life Phyte came into being

Everyone thought I wasn't going to make it…

My friends thought I lost it…

Truth is… I had.

I was stuck in life, battling bipolar depression, taking six different medications

On the brink of ending it all

The truth was I had a void inside me that couldn’t be filled

I tried to numb the pain with anything the world could offer; drugs, alcohol, porn, gambling, toxic relationships, video games and food.

Feeling Good for a while, but left feeling that void in my soul.

My Parents spend thousands of dollars as a last ditch effort trying to get my life back

They bought hours and hours of Therapy, Medications, and Counseling

Overtime it got worse to the point where I was admitted to the a Mental Hospital

Eventually…

The THOUGHT hit ME, was I suppose to take medication and continue therapy for the rest of my life feeling slowed down, fat and barely being able to focused

I felt like a zombie…

Dragging myself through the motions

There had to be another way.

One fateful encounter…

One ordinary day, one fateful encounter changed everything.

Ready to end it all, I drove to the lake

One final act of Desperation, I cried out:

“God, if You’re real… make the voices in my head stop.”

The next words out of my mouth came: “Jesus… Jesus….”

In that very moment, my mind became silent

For the first time in 2 years…there was no noise, no clutter, no voices

Suddenly a Bible Verse Popped into my head, Jeremiah 29:14 which reads

“I will be found by you,” says the LORD. “I will end your captivity and restore your fortunes. I will gather you out of the nations where I sent you and will bring you home again to your own land.”

I sat there in awe, God was real and he was there to restore my life.

The Champion’s Journey

That day didn’t fix things overnight, but it changed the direction of my life.

God began to send mentors into my life

It started with a old friend from high school who brought me back into the gym

As my body grow stronger and fitter, my mind began to heal

I was able to stop taking medication completely

From there another mentor invited me into church and Bible Study

And from there, I started reading the Bible every single day.

Little by little, God began restoring my mind, body, and spirit.

The weight of depression began to lift

The fog started to clear

My grades began to improve

And I started to become who God created me to be:

a Champion in Christ.

I went on to graduate college in just three years.

THE TRUE TEST

After graduating College, there had to be something more…,

The habits of waking up early, reading the Bible, taking cold showers, reading books, working out was going to help people but...

I didn’t know how…

Then something happened again.

I had a FREAK accident and broke my shoulder blade and scapula from a 3 foot fall…

In the days following the surgery,

I laid on my couch, unable to do anything, I was truly stuck again

Night after night unable to sleep, mind constantly thinking of the past and future.

I lost my sense of purpose once again…

Reminded of what went through in college, the thought came to Surrender it all to Jesus

This is where Life is NOW

Accepting that I got knocked down

I had the CHOICE to trust God and Let him work in me once again

Life was out of my control, all I could do was trust that he had a path forward

Overtime, he lead me into physical therapy and into the world of stock trading.

Through trading, I learned about business, investing, and how to make money online

But…

Money without any purpose also felt empty

I needed something money than money; I needed a mission.

I was reminded of the Bible Verse God gave me back at the lake years ago,
“I will be found by you,” says the LORD. “I will end your captivity and restore your fortunes. I will gather you out of the nations where I sent you and will bring you home again to your own land.” Jeremiah 29:14

God didn’t just want to restore only me

He was calling me to help restore others.

I realized I was called to help people who were stuck where I once was.

People battling depression, addiction, and purposelessness.

People with passion but no path.

People who just needed someone to show them how to turn their trials into testimonies.

This was my life purpose.

This is how LIFE PHYTE was Born!
