My sons are ever so much more courageous than I am.

Both of our sons have done something I never even considered - started their own businesses. They both have very professional websites.

Our older son is 31, and lives in Phoenix. He majored in psychology. He is a CSCS - Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist. Very passionate about fitness, nutrition, rehabilitation after injury, and the mind-body connection. After working in a couple different gyms, he is striking out on his own. He had been considering this move for a while and decided the time had come when his now-former boss exposed all the trainers to COVID by holding an in-person meeting with everyone without telling them he was positive. All of his current clients are going to stick with him.

ARE YOU READY TO PLAY YOUR FAVORITE SPORT AGAIN... WITHOUT BEING IN PAIN?
Hi, I’m Greg! Welcome to Never Past Your Prime. This is fitness for athletes who went pro in something other than sports. As a former collegiate athlete turned strength coach, I can help you achieve levels of pain-free physical performance you’ve never had…even when being an athlete was the most important thing in your life.

Younger son, 29, lives in Chicago, and majored in business, rather by default, as there was nothing else he was interested in. A year ago, he decided to try his hand at making a living with photography and videography. Self-taught. He has a very good eye, proficient with still photography as well as drones, and, according to his much older 1/2 brother, who does this too, is exceptionally good at matching music with videos.

He also has a very good sense of humor and has many funny short videos on his site. My favorite is The Last Donut.

One of the early comments also made me chuckle - "Wow - identical triplets!"

When I asked him if he had really eaten all 3 donuts, he said it ended up being 5 by the time he got all the shots he wanted.

Both websites are engaging and very professional. I too loved the last donut video!

My younger son and their older 1/2 brother from my husband’s first marriage both went to Phoenix to do the video portions of our older son’s website. Having the 3 brothers work on it together makes it all the more special.

He’s a very good writer, and was selected to be a Certified Writing Fellow at his college. Each year, the school, which is small (an enrollment of not-quite 3000), selects only 12-15 students, across all disciplines, to be writing fellows.
