Fast and Slow brings a ‘yes, and…’ approach to life, because we’re all making it up as we go.
I talk AI, digital tools, and whatever’s moving too fast to keep up with. Then I slow it right down with books, routines, reflection, and the stuff that actually makes you feel something. I’m convinced the stuff that matters happens in the grey, the messy middle.
Delivered in one take, with questionable editing and a slight attitude.
Speaking to myself and others is my way of gaining some level of understanding as to what is going on with me in this stage of my life, of creating some sort of lay of the land.
It's been an interesting one over the past month, with frustration being accompanied by a lot of gratitude and a general understanding that the metrics of "success" I have internalised are no longer fit for purpose. They tell me that I am failing at many things that I used to excel in, despite that fact that I feel more whole, and human, and myself than ever before.
So we are getting curious about understanding what fuel might be used to power this upcoming phase of life...and also eating soda bread.

August - Two Months of Chapter 2
When life gives you tomatoes, just make pasta!
The majority of August I was in bed with a nasty infection and then got a new infection on top of the first one...over-achiever, I know.
In the colossal amount of space where my body was doing nothing and my brain not far behind, I found a calm that I think I've been waiting to arrive for the past 1.5+ years since I moved back to Australia, to Melbourne.
The impatience for what I can only describe as a knowing has meant I have been near dragging myself through the wringer to make this come to reality. Meanwhile, I've found myself in a place in life where I have the opportunity to breathe, to look around and appreciate the moon, and rhubarb jam and the feeling of ink flowing onto paper in front of your eyes.
I'm exploring emerging technology, I'm creating systems and tools along the way, and I'm curious to understand where this shift in perspective is going to take me. Moving from the driver's seat to that of an observer means allowing for life to open up possibilities and opportunities that you didn't know were there. And I'm excited for what's to come.

July - The First Month of Chapter 2
Existing in the grey uncertainty of life is exactly what you would expect - a hot ass mess.
This video shows all the metrics and the things that are easy to track and socially rewarded in some manner. The focus for next month is how to surface all the other (arguably more important) stuff like time spent with friends and family, reading, journaling, meditating - all the things that make me feel connected to this life in some way.
For now, here's July, 2026
