I call it ChalkZone. You call it the Internet.
I call it ChalkZone. You call it the Internet. For me, the two have always been separate worlds…one real, one imagined. ChalkZone is where anything you draw can come to life. The Internet works the same way: you can be whoever you want to be, as long as you can convince others to believe it.

Question: Are You Chasing Legacy, Checks, or To Be Liked by All?
Are you chasing legacy, checks, or just trying to be liked by all? I’ve asked myself that question more times than I can count. Social media will have you thinking the number of likes equals your worth, while money feels like the safety net we’re all scrambling for.

I’ve Broke the Forth Wall…
I once said we’re living in The Truman Show, and I still believe it. Most people are born into a script they never wrote, walking through painted skies and staged oceans without ever realizing the set isn’t real. I noticed the glitch when I had to fight for moments that should’ve been mine without question.

Manifestation doesn’t start with a vision board, it starts with your nervous system. The universe isn’t listening to what you say, it’s listening to who you’re being. If you want love, become the space love wants to enter. If you want peace, embody the stillness your future is looking for.

Page Bounce, what is it and why you need to start doing it.
Most creators treat multiple pages like multiple jobs and end up spreading themselves thin. I used to do the same thing until I discovered a method I call Page Bounce.

Phone-Life Balance: What It Is and Why You Need It
Most people don’t realize how much of their peace they hand over to a device until it’s too late. I lived it, constant calls, endless texts, and an overwhelming feed full of bad news and highlight reels. The more I scrolled, the more I compared, and the more I felt stuck. It wasn’t until I…

There Are Perks to Being Social
“Confidence isn’t about arrogance; it’s about alignment. When your words, energy, and actions are aligned, people don’t just hear you…they feel you. But when there’s doubt, even a crack of it, people sense that too. That’s why the perks of being social don’t show up until you do.”
