MyOFP BEGINNING
SEARCHING FOR ACCOMPLISHMENT
It all started with a young laidback surfer boy from Charleston, SC searching high and low for his purpose in life.
Throughout my childhood, I had accomplished so much. I earned 7 gold and 3 Silver medals in the Junior Olympics for Martial Arts, was a State Swimmer, Wrestler, and Soccer Champion, and a BSA Mile Swimmer.
I had positions as an Emergency Responder Instructor, Lifeguard Instructor, Rescue Diver, and established the first High School Marine Ecology SCUBA Diving Club in South Carolina.
In addition, I also did work as a Film Actor, Print Model, earned my Eagle Scout and received awards ranging from School Participation to Presidential Citations by my 18th birthday.
DIVERSE CAREERS
My adult life was no different. I Honorably Served in OIF, OEF, and other austere environments throughout the world as a United States Marine. I received multiple Meritorious Promotions, Commendations and Awards.
As a civilian, I contracted throughout Middle East and Africa for the US Military and other government agencies.
State side I worked as a Firefighter, Medic, Rescue Squad member, SCUBA Dive Master, Protective Security OIC, a Weapons Tactics & Survival Training Director for Civilian / Military / Law Enforcement / Fire / EMS / EOD / Bomb Squads, and other entities.
FINDING PURPOSE
In my spare time I volunteered at shelters, participated in road and beach cleanups, did every extreme sport I could, traveled to 6 continents (learning their cultures and languages), completed 123.7 miles in 24 hours for a Fallen State Trooper Memorial run/walk benefit, was a Boy Scout Leader, started an Apparel company and various other “Cool Guy” things.
However, through all of the accomplishments, accolades, and experiences, I still never felt fulfilled. I always lived on everyone else’s terms.
This was because I did not exercise My Purpose in concurrence.
Fortunately for me, part of my Purpose was born in 2014. Through the birth of my Son (my Stud), I was able to begin my journey of heeling and self discovery.
Since then I have been able to dig through the layers of trauma, disappointment, Ego, failures, habits and obstacles I buried my True Self under.
This has brought me the Freedom to uncover My Own Found Purpose.
LIFE OF SERVICE
Now is my time to get back to a life of service. Starting MyOFP will allow me to serve you, my community, and our world with the love and gratitude I have always strived to give. However, this time it will be done with my Purpose in mind as well.
The MyOFP Team and I are here to help you unlock your Purpose, encourage you to share it with the world and provide you with the best gear for your journey.
We are just Dudes and Chicks, who have been blessed with incredible opportunities. We are no better than you. We are just better than who we were yesterday.
Live The Legacy You Want To Leave
Your Purpose Your Way
This Is MyOFP
Cheers,
Tommy
