I’ve played in bands, acted in music videos, and even walked down the runway. Was it fun and cool? Sure! Was I happy? Not really, except when I was in my first band. Now, looking back at the last 5 years, I thought completing and self-publishing two children’s books would make me happy. Honestly, it wasn’t something I was consciously focused on, but it was there in the background, like a little voice in the back of my mind. But guess what? It didn’t make me happy. I was caught up in this idea that I needed to achieve something to experience happiness, something that followed me around for years, and unlearning that has been one difficult process.

When it came to So Indifferent,  The Fear Theory, or any of my creative pursues it was never about the numbers, or gaining notoriety. For me, it’s always been about understanding myself and building real, connection. Bringing both together in my work has shown me what truly matters: helping others see their creative potential and keeping their spark alive in a world that often tries to put it out.

What does it mean? This piece reflects the journey of choosing fulfillment over fleeting happiness. It’s about finding a longer-lasting flame, one that can burn steadily, continuously.
