From Chaos to Coach
☠️ MY NAME IS COLT CURTIS… BUT MOST PEOPLE JUST CALL ME .45.
Born and raised in Simi Valley, California. Made in the chaos. Forged through pain. Refined by purpose.
I grew up without a father — a wound that shaped how I saw myself and the world. My dad moved on to build a different family, and I was left to figure it out. Raised by a single mother, I carried the confusion, the rage, and the weight of having no male role model. That led me into the streets early — gangs, violence, survival. I chased pain because it felt familiar.
But I wasn’t made to stay there.
At 18, I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, and on September 11, 2001, I was in boot camp when the towers fell. That day changed everything. I was deployed during Operation Iraqi Freedom III. I saw war. I saw death. I saw what it meant to carry trauma that never quite leaves. When I came home, I didn’t come home whole.
I tried to fill the void with motorcycle clubs, business, and brute strength. I built companies. I hustled. I provided. But I also suffered in silence — until it all caught up. At 37, I had my first panic attack. Anxiety crushed me. The strong, composed Marine broke… and it was the best thing that ever happened to me.
That’s when God got a hold of me.
I stopped running and started rebuilding. I turned to faith, fitness, and fatherhood.
I realized I wasn’t broken — I was being rebuilt. And I wasn’t just a man with a past… I was a weapon with a purpose.
Now I’m a father to three daughters, a coach, and a mentor. I still live in Simi Valley, and I wake up every day with a mission: • 🔥 To help people reclaim their power • 🛡 To lead men and women out of their darkness • 💪 To build a life rooted in DISCIPLINE, FAITH, and PURPOSE
Through my coaching, my content, and my conversations — I don’t just show the highlight reel. I show it ALL — the wins, the losses, the demons, the discipline. Because real change doesn’t come from pretending. It comes from owning your story and rewriting the ending.
If you follow me, work with me, or cross paths with me… Just know: I’m bringing the truth — no filter, no fluff.
Because if I can rise from it… So. Can. You.
