47 today 🎂
I’ve been sharing my life on Instagram for well over a decade. Back when none of us really knew what this platform would become, let alone that you could build an entire career on it.

And yet, here we are.

I’m 47 years old, building a career in an industry largely shaped by people half my age, where nothing is guaranteed and figuring it out is half the job.

And I genuinely love it.

Some people still don’t understand what I do. Some don’t consider it a real job. Some probably think I just walk around drinking espresso and putting on nice clothes all day.

I’m completely fine with that.

Because behind the camera, this has been one of the most challenging, rewarding, and entrepreneurial chapters of my life. I’ve built a business around being myself, and learned to trust my instincts more than other people’s expectations.

But the greatest return hasn’t been financial. It’s been freedom.

The freedom to be present with my wife. To watch my kids grow up without feeling like I’m constantly missing something. To create, build, take risks, and design a life that feels like my own.

At 47, I’m more comfortable in my own skin than I’ve ever been. Less interested in explaining myself. More interested in seeing what’s possible.

I never imagined this would be my career. Or that I’d be finding an entirely new version of myself at this age.

But that’s the beauty of life. You don’t have to have it all figured out by a certain age. Sometimes the best chapters are the ones you never saw coming.

So here’s to 47. To staying curious, taking chances, embracing the uncomfortable, and being unapologetically yourself.

Even if that means setting up a tripod on a sidewalk while strangers wonder what the hell you’re doing.

Wouldn’t have it any other way.

🇺🇸🇧🇷 CONFIRMED: 20 YO NATHALIA GADELHA FILGUEIRAS WAS THE CO PILOT ON THE LEARJET THAT CRASHED IN PALM BEACH COUNTY.

Mother Camila & stepfather told the Post she was on the jet flying from Austin to the Bahamas when it nosedived & killed all 9.

She earned her private pilot license at 17 in September 2023 through the Palm Beach County school district Aviation Academy while still a senior at West Boca Raton High School, before she even had a driver’s license.

She started ground school in 2020 going into sophomore year & had 88 hours logged.

Family is Brazilian & lived in the US. Father began flying recreationally in 2018 & taught her.

Commercial certificate issued March 19 2026.

RIP: 🪽
