Welcome to Check Engine Light

This isn’t a hype machine. It’s a place for people who want to think more clearly—and act more intentionally—about how they care for their bodies and minds.

I write about performance longevity, stress, recovery, attention, systems thinking, and the deeper patterns that shape our health—not the quick hacks or latest gadgets, but the stuff that actually sticks over time.

Whether you're an athlete, coach, tactical professional, or someone navigating life with intention, this publication is for you.


What to Expect

  • Clear, jargon-free writing rooted in real experience and research

  • Reflections on how to manage stress and recovery like a system, not a checklist

  • Tools, practices, and insights you can actually use—without needing a PhD or a breathwork certification
