I came home from a night with a guy during which I had a pretty unpleasant memory pop up and wig me out during what was supposed to be a fun time. It unlocked a lot of unpleasant memories/anger during what was supposed to be a sexy, fun time, and I wanted to turn it into a celebration of catharsis.”

“‘Run River Run’ is about bypassing self-doubt and the art of resilience, inspired by the master himself, Bruce Lee. It’s about moving with life’s challenges rather than fighting them head-on—and sometimes looking back just to see how far I’ve come.”
