I miss Envision. I miss Costa Rica. Here is a little letter to all those who feel the same. I have a ticket for next year as well, and I expect that will continue.

Time Capsule
I wrote myself a letter, ten and a half years ago. This photo is about from that time too. Funny how things come together. Big love to all our journeys. May they be fruitful.
In Pursuit of Excellence
A repost of an old piece, but it resonates with me now. I am trying my best at the individual things, putting together the pieces of my life, and trying to not only achieve but excel. It is a challenge, every minute of every day. But I feel worthwhile of the effort.
The seasons change, and with it comes a difficult time. I least I can write about it. This and one more post for 2021 to wrap up the year
Science, God, and Conspiracy
I discuss why stories have always been the foundation of human belief, why that continues, what the modern stories we tell ourselves are, and why true agnostics are the on the correct path. In my opinion. Read along for current discussions of sad-but-real-life!
2020 in Review
Another year, another open letter to myself. 2020 has been. unique. There are many blessing to be accounted for, and space to grow from lessons learned. Please read if you would like!

Dear Bourdain 5: Running
Even in Japan, demons can follow you. And those bags don’t pay the extra fees on flights. Just a little bit on my mindset in Sapporo, plus a whole butt load of photos and videos! Shout out Lincoln, who’s working on the things himself
Apply my New Years Resolution hasn’t been easy, but it’s been rewarding. I’ve grown to love committing to excellent behaviors and how that’s let me learn from excellent experiences and people. It’s a habit I’m continuing to build and hone to reach new heights.
We become the things we tell ourselves, and that’s fascinating. It’s a wondrous and awesome responsibility to tell ourselves good, if not the best of stories to reach our highest potentials. To take risks. To try things that challenge us and make us grow. I’m seeking bigger adventures, a journey I’m excited to depart.
A experimental long form poem, short vignette. Something about This dirty city and it’s fertile soil, against the highs and lows of it’s turmoil.
I hope you like it!
A highlight year for sure. Extremely grateful for everyone around me, I love you all lots. Here’s to a outstanding 2019, filled with love, support, growth, expression, and more exploration.
A summary of my recent financial obstacles. Half rant, half habit vocalization.
VolIII. August 25th. Humbled by any support on the Indiegogo!
This is quite the raw one, and it’s a little longer for it. I talk about my emotional baggage, how it came to a bit of a head before my birthday, and how I still fight those demons successfully most days, and try to love them and me when I lose.
Dear Bourdain.
I worked to put my thoughts on paper after hearing about Anthony Bourdain’s suicide. First notification on my phone that morning. Really tough. I tried to explain who a total stranger was to me and why that matters and what next. Featured Reading at Another Open Mic, June 28, 2018
Just some writing, a quick opinion on how I’m using my time now to cultivate the best version of myself. Lots of things in the works, keep an eye out! Races, Farmhands, Open Mics, Trips, Events, Creation. Let me know what you think! What’s driving you?
If you're having a bad day [or days], a little tea can always help. I've had some struggles the last few months [early Nov- late Jan ish] and I wrote a bit about what steps I took to feel better. I hope it's helpful advice, if you feel like everything's been a little overwhelming.
My experiences introducing myself are part of a myriad of growth areas I've applied myself to over the last few years. It's gotten much better, but it also hasn't changed much at all. I provide some helpful guidelines I've used, and reflect on what the process has meant to me.
Just a smaller piece about my personal relationship with failure and what I'm trying to cultivate in my own life, outside of how I was raised.
A quick check in with what I'm learning from this entire process and what I would like to focus on more, namely marketing and discipline.
