About
I'm a former Roadie, CMO & Entreprenuer & left my hard fought London life to run away to the circus
What Running Away with the Circus Taught Me About Unhappiness
A little over a year ago I was struggling. I had anxiety, depression, was overweight, unmotivated, unhappy and felt like I couldn’t be myself. I felt completely out of control and suffocated by my current life and work situation. Today looks a little different. Seven countries and two circus collective residencies later I’m 20kgs (44lbs) lighter, I’ve performed on aerial silks in two different countries, I haven’t drunk alcohol in over a year and I’m the strongest, mentally, emotionally and physically I’ve ever been. My whole life I was torn between walking to the beat of my own drum and conforming to societal standards of success. I discovered that we are the masters of our own unhappiness, the endless desire to live up to societal standards drives us forward whilst we secretly dream of running away and leaving it all behind. What can we learn, then, from seeking a lifestyle currently unavailable to most in our current world? Can we find happiness?
