School has been nonstop lately. Classes, writing, deadlines - and I didn’t realize how much I needed a break until a small gap opened in my schedule. When it did I took the van back to Red Feather for a night.
Slowing down, jotting field notes for ecology, and watching the landscape change towards winter felt grounding. It was a reminder of how quickly life passes when you’re in routine and how different everything feels when you finally step away.
This new video blends reflection, nature, and the need to get grounded before finals. Thanks for being here while I juggle school and the channel - one class and one video at a time.

Escaping Into Colorado’s First Snow Solo Van Life
https://youtu.be/zkueDPfeuv0
Just dropped a new video I took the van into Colorado's first snow to hit reset after weeks of school and nonstop work. It felt good to step away, breathe a little deeper, and remember why these places matter to me.

We’re often told that creativity just happens - that it strikes out of nowhere. But the truth is it develops when you create the space for it.

We were taught that success meant working hard, advancing in your career, and ultimately feeling fulfilled. But what do you do when, despite following all the rules, you still feel unfulfilled? This question motivated me to step away from the traditional system and rethink what success really is. My latest video explores that journey shifting from chasing wealth and status to rediscovering freedom, time, and purpose.

New video out today!
Everything You Know About Success Is Wrong
https://youtu.be/JSADql5NUK4
We’re conditioned to believe that success equals stability, promotions, and a predictable life. But what if that very idea is what keeps us feeling unfulfilled?
I used to pursue the success others expected until I realized I was sacrificing my time, peace, and purpose in the process.
This video is for anyone questioning the conventional path they were told to follow.

Housing costs are reaching record highs across the US and for many, owning or even renting is no longer an option. That’s why vanlife has now become a lifeline for people priced out of stable housing.
I just released a video exploring how we got here, what vanlife really means today, and what this shift reveals about our housing system. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/VzryUnylqm8
But I’m curious about your thoughts. Poll below.
What do you think is driving vanlife’s massive growth today?

Priced Out of Homes—Why Vanlife Is Exploding
https://youtu.be/VzryUnylqm8
Housing prices are hitting levels that push people to search for alternatives. For a lot of people, that alternative has become vanlife.
I just released a new video diving into how the housing crisis is fueling this movement and why vans are becoming more than just a trend.
Curious what you think do you see vanlife as a temporary solution, or the start of something bigger?

Van Life Is Being Outlawed in America
Watch here:
https://youtu.be/oaKcxHoYzL8
What used to be a harmless night’s rest in a van is quickly becoming a legal gamble. Across the U.S. new laws and crackdowns are reshaping how people on the road are treated - and the freedom that defined this lifestyle is shrinking fast.
This story is about survival, adaptation, and what happens when freedom collides with policy.
I break down what’s changing and why it matters in my latest video.
