This is what we can do when we come together.

A moment of gratitude for this magical experience. For the people we’ve lost. For those who are hurting right now. For the simple gift of being alive.

I dreamt about this moment for over a decade. It was written in a diary by a younger Evan, suffering alone in his room, hoping that one day he’d have the opportunity to create this moment.

We may be struggling as a collective right now, but moments like this fill me with hope.

Hope for the future of this beautiful species.

Hope for this beautiful planet. 🦋

The fear of death…

Something that has lived within me for as long as I can remember.

My journey has thankfully given me the opportunity to dissolve my fear of what comes after this life.

But there’s still some work to do.

The fear of a painful death.

Yet the older I get, the more I find myself asking a different question.

Is a brief period of pain not worth a lifetime filled with love, laughter, nature, music, adventure, and the countless beautiful moments that make life what it is?

For me,

I believe the trade-off is worth it.

Life is worth the pain. 🦋

Swing Thoughts

Adulthood isn’t quite what mini Evan had imagined.

More responsibility. More bills. More trauma.

But swings still work the same 🫡

If you needed to hear this today, it was made for you.

I’ve been there. Trust me, it can get better 🫶🏼

Working on my documentary skills with this one. It’s part of a longer episode of ‘A Survivors Guide To Survival’, releasing at 7pm tonight. The link is in the bio if you need a bit of motivation 🤍

8 years ago, I was learning how to walk again after brain surgery.

This week, I walked 80km for a little girl fighting her own battle.

Life has taken me through victories, failures, detours, heartbreak, addiction, healing, and more fresh starts than I can count. Looking back, every chapter had something to teach me.

If you’re in a difficult season right now, keep going. Your story isn’t finished yet. 🤍

My brain surgery was 8 years ago tomorrow. It’s hard to believe.

There was a time when my life was fading away. A time in which I asked the world for support and without a mass collective of beautiful souls, I wouldn’t be here today offering the same gift to this little angel.

Adversity builds character. It brings us closer to our hearts, to our people. To have to face a battle like this at 9 is unimaginable to me. From experience, I know that Eve has an opportunity to become a shining light on our species and I’d love to give her the best chance of doing just that!

Follow for updates. He’s a wonderful being with a pure heart. What he is doing for this little woman is incredible!

If this resonates, donate if you can and keep this beautiful little lady in your prayers, and in your hearts 🤍

Thank you all.

Sometimes the problem with recording outdoors is that it’s so blissfully distracting 🐿️🤣

The universe has slowed me down.

Developing my first YouTube video after a 9 day hiatus, my electricity went 🫠

So I’ve extended the hiatus one more day. Here is the intro for the episode though.

Maybe you need to hear this 🤣

The first follower interaction.

Instead of feeling proud, I felt shame.

This video is about imperfections, self judgement, honesty and the pressure we place on ourselves to have it all figured out.

In reality, it’s difficult to human and we’re all doing our very best within this miraculous, strange existence.

Truthfully, I’m still learning, still navigating and still human.

Music alters our perception.
It alters our mood.
It alters our state.

But so does everything else we consume.

Food.
Media.
Conversations.
Environments.

This video is a simple thought experiment exploring how deeply our nervous systems are influenced by what enters us, and what surrounds us.
