That’s what makes it meaningful. A...

Hey friends, Chase here. Ever feel like life is happening somewhere else? You're in the room, but your mind’s a thousand miles away—replaying something you said, stressing about what’s next. It's normal. It's human. But it's also how we miss the best parts of life. The past is over. The future isn’t real yet. All we ever really have is right now. It took an avalanche—yes, a literal one—for me to fully understand this. In those few terrifying seconds, time slowed down. I was completely present. Fully alive. That experience changed me.

Hey friends, Chase here. Ever feel like you're taking life a little too seriously? Wake up. Work. Hustle. Repeat. Somewhere along the way, we stopped playing—and started grinding through our days like machines. Why We Get Stuck in Serious Mode We were taught that being serious means being responsible.

info_outlineHey friends, Chase here.
Ever had that gut feeling nudging you toward something bigger—only for fear to barge in with doubts?
- "What if I fail?"
- "What if this is the wrong move?"
- "What will people think?"
I’ve been there. When I walked away from the U.S. Olympic Development soccer program to pursue photography, people told me I was crazy. And honestly? I wondered if they were right. But there was another voice—quieter, but just slightly louder than my fear. That whisper was enough to take the leap.
Why Trusting Your Gut Feels Hard
Our brains are wired for survival, not fulfillment. That’s why fear kicks in the second we consider something uncertain. But think about it—how often have you regretted following your intuition? Probably never.
How to Know If You’re on the Right Path
It’s simple: If it feels right in your gut, it probably is. If it feels wrong, it probably is. We spend so much energy ignoring what we know deep down. The moment you start listening, everything changes.
Stop Following Someone Else’s Map
Trying to live by someone else’s playbook has an expiration date. It might feel safe, but eventually, you’ll realize you’re off course. The good news? You don’t have to wait to start. Take the first step—messy, awkward, scared. Just start.
Be 1% Braver
Courage isn’t about eliminating fear; it’s about being just 1% braver than it. You will make mistakes, but none of it is wasted. Every misstep is just data that brings you closer to where you’re meant to be.
So when your intuition whispers—listen. The most fulfilled people do.
Until next time, trust yourself. You already have the answers.
