On May 18, 2025, I was nearly killed in a violent accident that left me unconscious and severely injured on a sidewalk in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the aftermath, everything changed. I’ve been forced to confront what it means to live as a different version of myself.
This episode is told in two parts. The first is a recording I made shortly after returning home, before undergoing reconstructive facial surgery. I was dealing with a traumatic brain injury, a severe concussion, and multiple facial fractures—but I felt an urgency to capture the perspective that exists in the immediate aftermath of a near-death experience.
The second is an interview recorded in March 2026 in Medellín, Colombia, where I went in search of clarity, healing, and a path forward into a new chapter.
Both parts explore many of the same themes, separated by months of pain, recovery, and growth.
