Tonight’s live Q&A is a little different.

No cinematic edits. No mountain views. Just the real conversation behind the adventures.

How I actually sustain long-term travel.
How I plan routes and budgets.
What my life structure looks like behind the scenes.
What works, what fails, and what most people never see.

And here’s the deal…

🎸 If we hit 10 Super Chats in the first 45 minutes, I’ll pull out my guitar and play for you live.

Come hang out, ask anything, and be part of the chaos before I disappear into the next adventure.

Yes - I walked 16 km, and yes - it was Dia de los Muertos; but this sparkly story isn't about either of those really. Somewhere between the neighborhoods of Magisterio and the Malecón, I started thinking about my own past - what I needed to let go and what I needed to carry with me.

"This is it. I’ve officially hit rock bottom." 💔

That was me a month ago. Standing in an empty room, thinking my life was over.

But today, I’m sharing the story of how I found my way back. It’s not a "how-to" guide. It’s a reminder that sometimes things have to fall apart so they can fall together.

My new video is live! 🎥

I want to hear from you: What is one small step you’ve taken (or could take) today to start rebuilding?
A. Made my bed
B. Went for a walk
C. Reached out to a friend
D. Just breathed for 5 minutes

Tell me in the comments below! 👇

✨️ UPCOMING LIVE AND SURPRISE FOR YOU ✨️

Hello friends, I have some plans changed since I returned to Canada; and I feel it's best to share in a LIVE so I can answer any questions you may have.

🔜 SOON I'll be releasing the details on that.

For now, I have a surprise for you! I made a playlist, unofficially called the SLUDGE playlist because it is the Thicker Than Water surf film soundtrack (my favorite) and more. I made it because my plants needed something to listen to! 😂

Here it is! What do you think about it?

🚨NEW VIDEO ALERT 🚨

It's been a while!

I really had a difficult time making this one into a coherent story, but I also enjoyed every single moment of the editing. Seeing these moments again on the screen, reminding me of that simple friendship, and hearing our awkward conversations - it really warmed my heart.

I guess it's true - you can form a close bond with a stranger that you don't even share a language with. All you need is love, and a little guava and durian.

Thanks for waiting for this one!

🚨I’m going on vacation.

Not from travel; but from working at full capacity.

Today, as I approach my ✨𝟓𝟎𝟎𝐭𝐡 video ✨, I see that we creators can, accidentally recreate the same pressure for ourselves outside of “real life.” A deadline. A deliverable. A performance. A life of documenting, not truly living.

🎬 So I’m letting my last film breathe.

For this final month in Southeast Asia, I’m going to try to be present. Not rushing to turn every experience into a polished story.

🤷‍♀️ If you’re someone who feels caught between a full-time job (or full-time travel) and obligations… between responsibility and freedom… you know what I’m talking about.

❌ We finally create space for ourselves, and then feel guilty for enjoying it.

So what does this mean?
✅ I will be uploading shorts as normal on this YouTube channel.
✅ My longer-form, cinematic storytelling series will decrease to 1 to 2 videos a month.
✅ I’ll continue sharing on-the-fly updates and inspiration on Instagram, Facebook, and Threads.

Meanwhile, I’ll be studying creative editing techniques, improving my narrative, and leaning into more personal scripts for what’s next.

✔️ Sometimes growth isn’t about adding anything new. Sometimes it’s about doing less; but doing it better.

Thanks for allowing me the freedom to live out the stories before I share them.

Hello Friends 👋

I’ve been thinking about something I’ve noticed in the Philippines…

🫂 Community here feels different.

Joiner tours. Shared boats. Shared tables. Shared karaoke.
No one really does things alone if they don’t want to.

As someone who’s traveled solo for 3 years… I’m not sure I was ready for that.

💰 Filipinos, is this something you’ve always valued?
🏝️ Or do you think it’s just part of island life?

New video soon.

No long-form video this week 💛

I’m giving myself permission to pause.

I’ve hit a little bit of writer’s block, and instead of forcing a story that isn’t ready to be told, I’m leaning into the rhythm of where I am.

It’s Tết here in Vietnam, and the energy is beautiful. Families gathered. Incense drifting through the streets. Flowers everywhere. A slower pace. A time to reflect, reset, and begin again.

So this week, I’m choosing presence over production.

I’ll still be sharing little moments, but the next long-form adventure will come when the story feels right again.

Thank you for being here: for your patience, and for letting me grow at a human pace. 🌸

Tell me, do you ever give yourself permission to pause when creativity feels forced?

"Have you ever been to tomorrow?" This simple question stopped me in my tracks. We worry so much about a future that doesn't exist yet. Watch the full conversation here 👇
