I took every dollar I made as a designer and poured it into a show that no one might watch.

$4k+ to bring Bernabe to New York. Three hours of sleep filming with Colin and Samir. Casey Neistat in the room. 30 interviews unedited. Revenue at 50%. The voice saying "you're going to wipe out" won't shut up.

I'm 38 but feeling brand new. Money is tight. Fulfillment is high. This media project is changing me in ways I don't understand yet.

I appreciate all of the support.
