New Headshots - New Me

Friday I took new headshots. I wanted to show a new me. I’ve been working out since April and lost 20 pounds. With that, I’ve been shedding a lot of dead weight, mental shifts of how I perceive myself, and who and what I surround myself around. Most of it has been in solitude writing and reading; working on something new to challenge the way I see war and how it affects people mentally. I guess all that to say, I’m feeling better being quarantined because I have more time to work on me and my creativity. To add, it’s helped me get more general meetings with executives and staffing meetings.

With the ups and downs, the tears of defeat at times, I’m glad I’m still here and I still keep having opportunities come my way. Please believe it’s been hard, challenging at times, and last night I was in a loophole of negativity. Bob’s Burgers and a CALM app story got me to sleep. I woke up rejuvenated but also, standing firm that I want to write for TV. I want to direct for TV. I’m fucking talented. Sometimes it takes a little self talk and prayer, you know? I’m thankful. Sometimes faith is just having a thought to believe in. Mark 5.
