William turned to cannabis as a habit during a stressful time in his life. While in the beginning he found connection, creativity, and new insights, over time he found himself forming an identity and way of life that was negatively affecting his health.

It was helping him stay stuck. Numbing emotions, delaying growth, and keeping him comfortable in a life that no longer fit. Now, he documents the mental, emotional, and lifestyle shifts that come with sobriety. From discipline and routine to self-trust and personal growth. Through short-form content and real conversations, William helps people who feel stuck realize that quitting doesn’t take something away. It gives your life back.
