Tension, Love & Death. All inevitable aspects of our collective human experience. All aspects of our lives that Western culture has placed in the shadows so we can all embrace “happiness and bypassing” to a degree that we ignore the truth. What if in removing these elements that create a
This can’t be it. This can’t be the end game. Working to keep a roof over the head and food in the fridge with the electricity still on and that’s it. That’s not living, that’s modern slavery of the capitalistic type. Lock people into basic
Defining the next chapter of my journey has not been easy, and I know I'm not alone in this struggle. Doing it while simultaneously watching the world burn to the ground is a wild ass mind fuck. One insanely valuable aspect of the journalist’s mind is being
Or destroys them...choose wisely.
When the idiots and war mongers steal the keys to the kingdom.
We are all now navigating an inherent tension as a collective. It’s a tension many of us who documented or studied issues of social inequality, environmental justice or conflict dwelled within for decades. And seeing everyone now trying to process the cognitive dissonance necessary to not lose our minds
Time to put on your yoga pants...
History holds a multitude of lessons right now. Labor in the age of AI inundation seems to one of the most relevant and rarely discussed topics. America is facing a fundamental question at this apex of oligarchic restructuring of our social contracts and workforce expectations. The question we face, and

The beauty of having no more fucks to give.
In 2023, when I was interviewing for my first “corporate” job as a middle aged adult, I spoke of “right livelihood” and a mission driven approach to my work. Interviews with global directors and even the CMO contained that language and they all nodded along. I’d read the company’
How often do we give ourselves permission to reset our lives? If you’re like me, the idea of wiping out all of the human habits that aren’t so healthy, but often necessary to survive being, well, human, is appealing. Unfortunately, the reality of doing so is not so
Yoga Sutra 1.2 and why it matters
One of the biggest struggles for my yoga practice is the consistency of the practice itself. After leaving school, where I compelteled 1k hours of yoga study and was immersed in the practice every day, I entered corporate tech land and lost the connection to my practice, my breath and
Labor Day. 2025. I rarely pay attention to holidays. For my early working years, I was employed in leisure industries that usually required working holidays. Labor Day was the goal on those insane summers of sea kayaking and bartending. Memorial Day meant, “buckle up buttercups, here come the tour-ons” and
Time to put on your yoga pants...
Time to get dirty with a deep dive on how YOU define a "good life".
One of the beautiful aspects of my work in community building the past few years is working directly with builders around the globe.
