Nobody is actually competing with you.

You’re just scared to become the version of yourself that would win.

You say you’re waiting for the right moment, the right strategy, the right setup.
But what you’re really doing is hiding behind preparation,

because becoming that version of you would cost you your comfort.

It would cost you your excuses.
Your victim story.
Your attachment to struggling.

Most people don’t fail because they aren’t talented.
They fail because they won’t level up into who they’re meant to be.

You’re not overwhelmed —
you’re resisting the next level.

So stop watching.
Stop waiting.

Pick up the controller.
Play your own game.

Become the creative who already knows they’ve won.

Birthday Weekend Recap ♌️ 🦁

I’m dedicating year 36 to creation.

Creating new habits, new opportunities, new experiences, new environments, a new way of being and loving.

I feel as though everything is ahead of me now, just waiting to be held.

A few years ago I didn’t think I could manage or hold onto success, or happiness. I always waited for the other foot to drop.

But now, I realized that you don’t have to brace for anything, just be where your feet are, enjoy who and what’s around you, and don’t take thing so seriously.

Fatherhood, marriage and creation are the pillars of my life, and I intend on making every moment of it count.

Thank you to everyone who showed up this weekend, love you guys and to , you’re the most kind, loving and thoughtful human I’ve ever known.

Thank you always babe 🙏🏾

A couple quick edits!

👀 BTS of Our Men’s Health Feature

What started as a conversation between two friends, one a creative director, the other the dietitian journalist at Men’s Health Mag, turned into something bigger.

Dezi and I have been watching what’s happening with GLP-1s in the wellness space. The meds are powerful. No doubt. But no one’s talking about what happens when take them mindlessly without a plan; specifically, without protein, without resistance training, and without real education from a real nutrition expert.

So we decided to change the narrative a bit and teamed up to create something that wasn’t just visually powerful, but educational, accessible, and real.

We sat down with , the founder of to discuss these powerful medications and how they’re transforming people.

“TBH, people can actually use GLP-1s safely, build strength, and not lose themselves in the process. I’m a point in my career where I’m a bit more diet agnostic. Choose whatever works for you, be sure that you have the means, the education, and the support and then have at it.”

And that’s straight from Dezi’s mouth.

📸 We shot the content ourselves.
🧠 We pulled from clinical data and real-life clients.
🎤 And we told the story in a way that feels human.

This is just the beginning.

Shoutout to for letting us share our voice.

And to everyone out there trying to do it right, we see you. Stay strong. Stay informed. Lessgetit.

See Different. Be Different. 😎

This is the first drop in our visual editorial series.

We kicked things off in Arizona set against the backdrop of Papago Park during golden hour, where some of our newest creators ran the Music Shields and Falcons through the heat.

We are looking to working with more creators, models, athletes, etc for the brand!

If you think you’d be a good fit, DM us or email [email protected]

More coming soon 📸 If you’d like a link to our instant tint, music playing shades, comment “AZ” and we’ll send you a discount code for the perfect sunglasses for active Arizonans.

Behind the Scenes Content = 💰A BAG for content creators right now

The OSMO Pocket 3 is literally built for BTS creation. It’s compact, the video is high-quality, and you can edit and post from their mobile app on the fly.

BTS = Real ROI

Studies find studio content gets 85% fewer conversions than authentic UGC-style vids

User-generated BTS content has driven MILLIONS in value, and there’s a level of authenticity that you cannot fake, script or manipulate with AI.

If you’re looking for creative jobs, I strongly suggest you reach out to brands and offer this service. I myself have landed $700-$1200 gigs.

Would you guys like to learn how to pitch BTS services to businesses or brands? I’ve been debating whether or not to create a mini course and provide templates to give you guys!

Let me know if you’re interested, if enough people want it I’ll make it!
