The Happy Hustle

The many hats

One life, many arenas.

01The origin

Surf town and a cowboy town

Son of two entrepreneurial parents — an automotive-mechanic father and a chiropractor mother — Cary split his childhood between surfing and skating in Sarasota, Florida and hunting, fishing and cowboying on his dad's ranch in Red Lodge, Montana. It wasn't peaches and cream: a divorced home, an extreme stutter, OCD, anger issues, and 24 different homes before the age of 18. Poor decisions caught up with him — and a brief stint in jail catalyzed the change. He failed forward, traded hustlin' for Happy Hustlin', and vowed to use his powers for good.
