I'm currently on the road shooting some client documentary stuff (my day job) and unfortunately won't be able to upload a new video for a couple weeks...
In the interim, i'm sharing ideas via email. So if you wanna be pen pals, we'll be here! sunny-thinker-1914.kit.com/
Stoked at the response on the last few videos. A warm hello to all the new people finding this channel. π πΉ I love exploring ideas around the creative life. It can be such a bittersweet and unique journey we are on as artists lol. Hopefully some of the ideas explored on this channel help you feel less alone as a creative person finding their way. β΅οΈ
Wow. Humbled by the response to the new Jordan Peele video so far π
This channel has been an explorative side project outside of my typical work. I've been trying to carve out time to create here more consistently, but tbh getting less than 100 views per video makes putting crazy hours into these videos feel illogical.
Creating this JP video came at a time where I was feeling discouraged and most needed the advice that he speaks to:
Doubt is a part of the process, lighten up and make the process as fun as possible, keep improvising, stop worrying about external metrics and just make something that you wish existed.
Itβs beautiful to see you guys resonating with these reminders alongside me.
A big hello to all the new subscribers β stoked to be on this journey with y'all lets goo β΅π

Our passion projects are like a sacred bonfire
without attention, it will fizzle out.
I've been sitting with the question (as i navigate a ton of work/travel):
when life is at its busiest, how do I feed this fire?
Sharing ideas on this with my email community. Link here if you want to be pen pals in between YouTube uploads: sunny-thinker-1914.kit.com/
