About Me

I’m Christopher Gorges, a proud father, an experienced educator, a sign language interpreter, and endurance athlete.

As a teenager, I survived a near-fatal car accident that taught me how fragile life is. Years later, a back injury nearly left me unable to walk. Both experiences reminded me of memento mori—that life is short and every moment counts.

What saved me were small, intentional habits. Step by step, I rebuilt my health, crossed the finish line of my first triathlon, and ran 5Ks with my family. The same approach has guided my work in education, where I’ve spent over a decade helping students overcome limiting beliefs and grow with confidence.

I believe unintentional habits let life happen to you, but intentional habits allow you to design a life of purpose, resilience, and joy. That’s the mission behind everything I write, teach, and create.
