Who knows. I’m still getting to know her.
I’m a human on the journey that we call life. With all the ups and the downs, learning lessons along the way. I’ll share my journey, musings and things that inspire me, that you may find insightful and/or amusing. I believe that if we can help even one human, the effort is worthwhile.
Rather than confining myself to an elevator pitch of my profession I’ll tell you a little about myself. Whilst I identify as she/ her, biologically a woman. I am well known amongst friends as describing myself as a gay man trapped in a woman’s body. What that actually means, who knows? I love the sound of it and it seems to give me permission to catapult balls of testosterone.
Born and raised in the UK, I’ve lived, worked and travelled in several countries. I wont count them like notches on my belt. I believe in living a life so that there are minimal deathbed regrets (because of course there will be some). I’m not a digital nomad because I do love to nest. However it is not unlike me to go somewhere for a couple of weeks and find myself there a couple of years later. I flow because I can. I use the freedom I’ve asked for and taken.
Once upon a time I studied Law but have never practiced. Whilst British born I don’t identify with being a Brit, more a global citizen that doesn’t quite belong to a specific place. Home is inside me and where I decide to be at a given time. When you give me lemons, I’ll make a blueberry smoothie. Because I can.
As an avid student of life, I am no longer who I was yesterday and not yet the person I aspire to be tomorrow. I am ever evolving. Learning how to live in the moment and be the best version of myself today. My life as I’ve known it has evaporated more than once, only to be replaced by something much cooler. I am remarkably aware of my mortality and know that what we have can disappear faster than a blink. And perhaps that’s really why I’ve created this. A sort of legacy in case it were all to disappear tomorrow. There’s your grey cloud for today! Or perhaps it’s the silver lining. It depends entirely on your perspective.
Note: In case you’re asking yourself. What am I the ‘Boss’ of? My own goddamn life.
