In February this year, I was given a gift: time.
I stepped away from the business I’d been working in for the past few years, and instead of rushing into the next thing, I realised I had a rare chance.
Time to be with my then 6 month old boy. To watch him grow and change every day. To see the world through his eyes, and to soak up time with
@evelyncribbin while our little world felt close and full of moments that really matter.
These have been the most beautiful months of my life. Slow mornings (albeit early starts). Big conversations. The realisation that whatever comes next, I wanted it to be different: less volatility, more meaning, and more space for the things that truly matter.
And the crazy thing is, after six or seven weeks, I found it. The perfect role. One that gives me autonomy, a huge step up from what I was doing before; a role that combines a my craft with ideation of creative campaigns through to strategy across a huge business.
In the middle of all that, I’ve been lucky enough to pick up some creative projects too.
One of those was shooting
@loneculprit ’s fourth drop, my first fashion film in about three years, with my good friend and former collaborator
@morgan.made.stuff directing. A shoot truly helped me recover my mojo.
It felt incredible to be back behind the camera with wonderful people,shooting something I’m proud of. But this time, on my own terms.
Life’s shifted. And I wouldn’t trade these past months, or where I’ve landed now, for anything. It’s a tough old climate out there and it’s not easy to navigate through the unknown. Back yourself - the right one will land sooner or later ❤️
