Performer on a break.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED
After a lot of time to think about this with careful consideration, I've decided to step away from pursuing performing, both music and acting. Right now, it makes me feel small. I feel incredibly discouraged as opposed to excited. A few things have fallen through this year and it feels like the world is punching down on me when I haven't even had the chance to stand back up from the last sucker punch. This last phone call really got me good and it's made me come to this decision. I come on here and see others doing so much and I will always celebrate their victories. After, I look at myself in the mirror, and it's hard to focus on the reflection. It's hard to see anything at all really.
 
I'm stepping away so I don't burn out. I don't want that magic to go away. I don't want that feeling of being able to let all the walls down through music and performance to go away. I don't want to lose that drive to make this thing a reality. I don't want the dream of turning these ideas in my head into a living, thriving creature to fade away. It's all I've ever known for almost 20 years.
 
Without it, I don't know who I am. I'd have no purpose. Who would Fonzy even be? That scares me.

So before that happens, I need to disappear for a bit. Thank you to everyone who has been so supportive over the years. Thank you to everyone who showed up to my performances. Thank you to everyone who helped me with booking, brainstorming ideas, and just being generally kind while welcoming me into new spaces. It means more than I can describe.

"Teach me the words I used to know. l forgot them long ago. I wanna remember..."
