In our latest adventure my lil Bebe & Baddie Bestie @bigrachenergy and I went to Mexico, the Yucatán/Riviera Maya to be slightly more specific. We spent about a week exploring our little slice of Paradise. The experiences, cultura and cities were all of such a fine quality 🤌🏾that it was, at the END of the day, a challenge saying which was a favorite or best. Which I like to do. The whole region felt familiar, ancient, beautiful & hospitable. Rach discovered a pyramid in the middle of the Yucatán! In other news beyond all the places and activities the best part was building a deeper connection with my Queen, establishing new memories, new private jokes and a renewed appreciation for our love & everything we have built. I love you @bigrachenergy! This trip was just what the doctor ordered, and I cant wait for our next adventure! Where should we go next?? taken in Riviera Maya, Mexico by @skurge

OUT NOW: “Great Ol Days” 🌅

Some memories fade.

The ones that shape you don’t.

“Great Ol Days” is more than a song about nostalgia. It’s about looking back without getting stuck there. It’s about honoring the roads that made us—the trenches, the mistakes, the brotherhood, the laughter, the losses—and recognizing that every chapter prepared us for this one.

I came a long way from survival mode to purpose. From serving time to building dreams. From waiting on opportunity to creating it.

“Those days was the good old days…
But these days are the Great Ol Days.”

That’s the message.

Don’t spend your whole life wishin’ you could go back. One day you’ll look at this season the same way. Build something worth remembering. Help yourself. Take the shot. Pass the lessons forward. Treat the young ones like kings. Stay present.

This record is Chapter 5: Shapes of Grief from The Daemon in the Box, continuing the story one song at a time.

Produced by The Young Mentals. @theyoungmentals

Run it up. Watch the visual. Share it with someone you’ve made memories with, and tell them you appreciate them while they’re still here.

The Great Ol Days are happening right now. 🖤🌅

Part 5.

Most men spend years trying to survive.

Pay the bills.

Get through another week.

Make it to Friday.

Repeat.

But survival was never supposed to become your identity.

Your children don’t need a man who’s merely surviving.

They need a man who’s building something worth inheriting.

A regulated nervous system changes how you think.

How you lead.

How you love.

How you respond under pressure.

How you build your legacy.

That’s the shift.

You stop reacting to life and start creating it.

If you’re tired of living in survival mode, this is your invitation to become the man your future family will thank you for.

Comment “LEGACY” if you’re done surviving and ready to start building.

Take the FREE Nervous System Audit and discover what’s really keeping you stuck.

Then join RE//CODE Foundations and learn the practical tools to regulate your nervous system and break old survival patterns.

When you’re ready for complete transformation, apply for the M.A.S.T.E.R.Y. Cohort.

Inside, you’ll build emotional regulation, self-mastery, embodied leadership, purpose, resilience, brotherhood, and the systems to become the calm, grounded man your family, business, and community can depend on.

This isn’t motivation.

It’s transformation.

This isn’t therapy.

It’s training.

This isn’t about becoming someone else.

It’s about becoming the man you were always capable of being.

Before there was the music industry
Before there was a Grammy
Before there was Americas got talent or American idol
There was... is.. and will always be music
Music wasn’t something people participated in together
Singing together
Drumming together
Using it as prayer and worship together
To whatever person that is waiting for the Simon Cowell clap of approval
.. the golden “here’s your ticket to Hollywood”
Remember that music is never and will never be just about views, numbers, metrics .. or whatever
Music is something that is ALIVE
It is something inside of me
It is something inside of you
It is something inside of everything that has life
Everybody has a phone.. turn the camera and share what’s inside you
and even if it’s not for a camera, allow what’s inside to come out and be expressed
Because now...
More than ever.. ALIVE music is needed

Part 4.

At some point, the excuses have to die.

Not because your pain wasn’t real.

Not because your trauma didn’t happen.

But because nobody can heal your life for you.

The moment you stop asking,
“Why did this happen to me?”

…and start asking,

“What does this situation require of me?”

Everything changes.

Victimhood waits.

Leadership moves.

You don’t become the man your family needs by feeling ready.

You become him by choosing responsibility before you feel like it.

The version of you that keeps making excuses has had enough time.

It’s time to build someone stronger.

Comment “MASTERY” if you’re done negotiating with your weakest self.

Part 3.

Now let’s talk about the real reason.

Most men don’t wake up and choose a victim mindset.

It usually starts as survival.

Years of disappointment.

Unresolved trauma.

Constant stress.

A nervous system that’s been stuck in protection mode for so long that excuses start feeling like reality.

Understanding why you’re here is important.

Living here isn’t.

You are not your past.

You are not your trauma.

You are not your excuses.

You are responsible for who you become next.

Have you ever caught yourself making excuses when what you really needed was healing?

Comment “REBUILD” if you’re choosing growth over victimhood.

Part 2.

If Part 1 made you uncomfortable…

Good.

Growth usually starts there.

This isn’t about insulting men.

It’s about confronting the version of ourselves that hides behind excuses, self-pity, and victimhood.

I’ve been that man.that boy, really.

That’s why I refuse to stay that man.

The strongest thing a man can do isn’t deny his pain… it’s refuse to let his pain become his identity.

Agree or disagree? Let me know in the comments.

PART 1:
Before you get offended… watch the whole video.

I’m not calling you a little b****.

I’m talking about the version of ourselves that lives in excuses, self-pity, and victimhood.

I’ve been that man.

That’s why I can call it out.

Suffering isn’t weakness. Staying identified with suffering is what steals a man’s leadership.

If you’re ready to stop negotiating with your weakest self, this message is for you.

👇 Comment “LEAD” if you’re choosing accountability over excuses.

You don’t always need more discipline brodie.

Sometimes your body is still expecting danger. Sometimes we still feel like we’re in the trenches, the trap, the turf, the yard, the concrete jungle, the abusive household, even when we escape.

That’s why you snap…
Shut down…
Procrastinate…
Or stay stuck in the same cycles—even when you know better.

Your nervous system isn’t your enemy.

It’s trying to protect you with old survival patterns.

The good news?

It can learn a new way.

The journey from survival to self-mastery starts with regulation.

👇 What’s one area of your life where survival mode keeps showing up?
