“The Dragon”

From Messed Up To Blessed Up

I’ve been messed up. Flat-out wrecked. I’ve stood in places so dark I didn’t think there was a way back.

But somewhere inside that collapse, I stopped running from myself and started paying attention. That’s when things changed.

What I Do

I’ve spent the last two decades studying how humans think, feel, and respond — not just from textbooks, but from lived experience. That work led to the creation of the Interface Response System (IRS), a four-step framework that helps people stop reacting on autopilot and start responding with clarity, purpose, and intention.

A Few Things I’ve Built Along the Way

  • Founded Makes Sense Academy, a global community focused on conscious self-leadership

  • Created the Interface Response System (IRS)

  • Authored Makes Sense: Solving the Mystery of Why Shift Happens

  • Host of the Top-15 ranked podcast Makes Sense with Dr. JC

  • Led humanitarian and coaching initiatives worldwide

Life Sucks — and Then You Wake Up

My mission is simple: to hand you the same torch that helped me find my way back — so you can finally make sense of your own life.
