I’m Davey, and I’m a lot of things. I’m a musician and a writer – primarily of songs, but I’ve branched out from there into a few things including this blog. I write, record, & perform with a rock & roll band called The Confusionaires. I’m also a father, a divorcee, a boyfriend, an addict, a student, vintage auto enthusiast, and more recently – an athlete (which also makes me a late bloomer).
At one point in my late 20’s I crested 340 lbs. I struggled through trying a laundry list of ways to improve my health, but if I’m being honest I really wasn’t trying very hard until November of 2018 when I found and formulated a plan that facilitated a slow & steady plan that got me down to 174 lbs. – roughly half of the weight I once was, a decade later.
This transformation not only allowed me to get in touch with a younger and more vital version of myself with bigger dreams and a better drive, it also allowed me to foster stronger relationships with my friends and family, and my environment. Now, as I push myself to grow and evolve and take on new challenges, I hope to encourage those around me to up their game as well.
Blog posts go up Saturday mornings with consistency, and videos get posted to my YouTube channel on occasion.

The holiday hours at my gym are less than ideal and at the risk of sounding like a total grinch, the notion that Christmas…
holidays
I try to be transparent in these posts – I really do – though I’m cognisant of the fact that; although I think or feel a certain way when I’m sitting at my computer with a coffee and a peaceful house around me, sometimes the follow-through of my namaste demeanor out in the real world…
the end of the year
It’s coming up quick… resolution time. If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, then you know I couldn’t care less about resolutions, particularly around the new year. I’m a firm believer that the new year starts when you make a change in your life, not the other way around. I became vegan on…
