A while ago I made an announcement that I’d be stepping back a little in my work, as CEO of @deadfellaz and in general due to some pretty extreme personal traumatic experiences, health scares and loss. I was burnt out, and anybody that has been there knows you need to make some pretty drastic changes in order to come back stronger. I am pleased to announce, that time is now. I am resuming my role as CEO, back in the drivers seat, armed with a healthier body, mind, and spirit. My life is driven by the insatiable need to create, I am compelled to alchemise vision to reality and even during my ‘break’ - couldn’t stay away for even a day fully. My heart and soul is @deadfellaz. Aside from my children and family, Deadfellaz is my proudest achievement. The community, legacy, potential and strength of this brand is the culmination of everything I care about and I am so excited to fuel it to where it needs to be. @psych_nft has done an incredible job holding it down, working with our focussed and cracked team on developing real, tangible product (please go play @deadluckygame it is honestly amazing) and ensuring we are here and primed for our turn to run. For anyone that didn’t already know - we are married, we made @Deadfellaz together and we have worked together in the many years prior to that. He hasn’t slowed down a bit, spent sometimes 7 days a week working solidly for our community, and has done it with passion and without complaint. Big thank you to you, you are the reason we are still here and you have ensured the brand had someone holding it when I couldn’t. I love you! Now back to our community. Many of you have stuck around no matter what, ride or die. We have one of the largest holder distribution in the space, completely organically, and I am very proud of that. We have one of the strongest legacies in the space, and helped build this industry alongside our peers. Now we are armed with product, vision and a renewed energy, we will see the Horde rise to where it deserves to be, and I dedicate my life to ensuring that happens. I will make you proud, I will make this industry proud, and I am grateful to everyone who has played a part in supporting me and our brand through the years. The Dead will never die. Join the Horde.

today is the quietest the internet will ever be. if you think you’re burning out on trying to stay visible now, it’s only going to get more brutal so i wrote this (optimistic) thought piece on how to build a brand in a post-ai world 💌

gfries you’re probs NOT gonna read this but… i took some real time off and i wanted to share some thoughts. i know how to be funny online but that doesn’t mean everything’s always nice behind the scenes. building my brand has honestly been one of the best things ever. and i know how to market myself, it’s one of my best skills ever. i’ve put in so much effort. i’m literally on every social platform now, not just in crypto, because my vision is way bigger than that. but lately, i’ve felt tired. and being chronically online is exhausting when there’s no clear routine. so now, i’m choosing to refocus. i’ve been reading, watching, reflecting. i see ppl like @nikitatiwari_ doing the 75 Hard challenge. and i think this is what i need: •real routines •better sleep •no more doomscrolling, more getting shit done •daily movement & better food i ordered a mic yesterday, thank you @coinempress for the rec hehe. i’m gonna start documenting my journey. and i hope it inspires at least one of you too. love u always kiss kiss 💋

Starting my first company in my early teens didn’t ruin my childhood. It’s one of the experiences I’m most grateful for - BECAUSE I got to do it from the perspective of a teenager and not an adult. I lived with my parents. School facilitated a social life. I had complete freedom in my free time, without major life pressures, to really explore and experiment. No urgency for funding or revenue. It was truly the best of times. And I think today, it’s even more valuable to have a rewarding, long-term thing to focus on, build and grow. Rather than losing yourself in dopamine validation hivemind culture, you actually get to deeply experience all the magic of thinking like a 14 year old.

Thank you for all the birthday wishes 🥳🥳🥳

Taking my overseas friends to Shibuya Yokocho and explaining how izakaya’s don’t usually have disco balls, fairy lights and singers with guitars is basically one of my personality traits at this point.

@benny_flaco 😍ohhhh thank you!! Might give it a go✨✨✨

@Kay_DF_ You could try open Netflix via Opera browser and switch on the built in VPN 😅

You can have both! With @GalverseAnime 🤩
