Wounds revealed.
Truth told.
Healing begins.

This isn’t just a blog.
It’s my reckoning.

For over a decade, I worked in one of the toughest environments imaginable — ten years inside the walls of two different Washington prisons. I saw more pain, violence, and trauma to last me a lifetime. I carried it home with me. And for a long time, I carried it alone.

I also lost my dad unexpectedly.
I had unresolved trauma from childhood and my early adult years.
Alcohol became my crutch. My shield. My escape.
But it didn’t save me — it nearly destroyed me.

I drank to cope with the PTSD, the anxiety, the depression. I lost control. I made mistakes. I racked up legal troubles. And I almost lost everything that mattered — especially my role as a father. As the years passed and the bad decisions piled up, my self-hatred grew.

But rock bottom has a way of stripping the lies away and exposing things as they really are.
So, I went to treatment in Utah — a program designed for first responders. And I started facing everything I’d spent years running from. During those 35 days of treatment, I finally started peeling back some of the layers that I had ignored for so long.

The Flipt Script was born from that process — from the decision to stop hiding and start telling the truth.

This isn’t a curated version of recovery. The things I write about here will not always be easy to read.
This is raw. Unfiltered. Honest.
It’s about fatherhood, trauma, addiction, accountability, and growth. It’s for anyone who’s ever felt stuck in a life they didn’t recognize — and wanted out.

I’m not here to pretend I’ve got it all figured out. At just shy of a year sober, I have a long way to go. This personal work will not end until I take my final breath on this planet.
But I’m finally writing my own story — on my terms.
And maybe, if you’re here, you’re ready to start writing yours, too.
