In case no one told you today: You're not stuck because you aren't talented. You're stuck because you're scattered.

As I was looking at photos from my "professional" days and comparing them to the pics when I was in a staring contest with a baby penguin... I knew I made the right choice. I may no longer be in front of the camera, but I am smiling even bigger. Sometimes the scariest decisions lead to the most beautiful destinations.

Why do we keep pushing artists to create what sells— instead of what sets their soul on fire? The best art comes from conviction, not calculation. Truth - Your unique vision is your superpower - Your "weird" is someone else's wonderful - The right audience will follow you when you're being real Would Van Gogh's starry nights exist if he'd followed and copied his peers?

If you're an Artist who feels lost in the noise, unseen and unheard—this is for you. We all have a calling, a longing we were born to that makes our hearts beat faster. But most people sleepwalk through life, settling into routines that lock them into predictable check boxes. This is the Renaissance. The time to listen to that calling is now

Traditional artists are fighting an impossible battle: speed vs skill. Algorithms don’t care about your skills. It wants your content—constantly. But here's what keeps me going as a photographer: I don’t take photos to feed the algos. I take photos to feed my soul. The game has changed, but the soul of art hasn't. Are you creating for likes? Or creating for life?

In 2018, I sold everything, bought a camera, and took a one way flight to Peru. No plan, just a dream stuffed into a backpack. People called me crazy. Others called me fearless. But here's the truth, the first 12 months were brutal. Some nights I questioned everything and wanted to quit. Other nights I was pinching myself for I couldn't believe that this was my life. Here's what nobody tells you about chasing dreams: • Fear never goes away • Doubt is a daily battle • "Making it" will look different than you'll ever imagine • Motivation will come and go, but purpose keeps you going. To chase my dreams, I learned that courage isn't about being fearless. It's about being scared and showing up anyway. But the biggest lesson? Your dreams don't need everyone's approval. They just need YOUR commitment.

Stop trying to “be” perfect. I learned this the hard way: The more I tried, the less people connected with me. The moment I started sharing real struggles? That's when people actually engaged. Authenticity beats perfection every time.

This week I stepped out of my comfort zone and talked to strangers at a local event, and one thing stood out to me: Most people sleepwalk through their 20s and 30s, settling into routines and relationships that lock them into a predictable life of check boxes. But this is the time to break the rules. Risks now cost less, but the rewards last forever. So if no one told you today: 🎯Start a side hustle, start alll the side projects! even if they flop—they’re lessons. 🗺️Travel somewhere you’ve never been; you’ll grow more than you can imagine. 📈Invest in yourself: books, mentors, and experiences — they will change your trajectory exponentially. 💪🏻Take care of your health and fitness—workout not just your body muscles but your mental muscles, the creative muscles. Because when you improve, your life improves. Life is for living. Don’t just exist.

For years, I thought no one cared about my photos. I felt invisible and I started doubting my worth because of low engagement. But I never stopped. Not because the likes or comments didn’t matter, but because they weren’t the reason I created. I share my travel photos because they are the chapters in my memoir. What viral culture makes us forget is that People are always watching. 📌 The takeaway? ✍🏻 Post your work. 💡 Share your ideas. 🎷 Keep showing up. Because even when it feels like no one’s seeing you, your community is out there. You just have to keep showing up so they can find you.
