After nearly ten years of processing and analyzing insurance documents, Darren’s mental state had been ground down to a fine powder. Everyone around him saw the toll it was taking.
A leave of absence allowed Darren to pursue his passion of MMA journalism, though he never knew how to cash checks from covering cage fighting.
An article for one site led to interviewing fighters for another, which bolstered his name in the business like a snowball speeding downhill. Soon, without even realizing how it happened, he was in the thick of what he loved—and getting paid for it.
He never worked another day in his life.
