Alex - He Who Gets Mad Loses

What would it look like to make someone proud?

Today I want to introduce you to Alex, Alex is one of the friends that I’ve met and instantly felt like we were old friends catching up. I had the pleasure of sharing a day with him and his girlfriend and am truly honored to be able to share a little of this amazing human with you all today 

We chat about how skateboarding led him to filmmaking, how meeting people is the most impactful thing we can do, and how we get to look back on points in our lives that connect to lead us to who we become

He shares how it’s important to grow with a mentor, but that we cannot negate standing on our own and not being afraid to walk away from those that hinder us becoming who we were meant to be

He shares how the loss of his mom impacted him, and in one of the last things she said to him that continues to motivate him to succeed and make her proud. We chat about what it means to welcome another and truly allow them to feel at home with us

Alex is someone that is intentional, not just with who he chooses to be, but with how he shows up for others, with how he creates art, and with how he reminds us all to let joy be in the moments that cost nothing and are available to us everyday 

So tune in and meet Alex, a human I could not be more grateful to now get to call a friend, and one that reminds us all to never stop meeting others and becoming someone those who love us can be proud of 

And to you Alex thank you, thank you for making me feel at home, for the absolutely best day I could have asked for in Lima, for allowing me to get to know the impactful and intentional friend and creator you are, and for the way your heart is so genuinely open to others. You are a truly beautiful soul and it is a honor to call you a friend
