"Running for me helped me get more confident with expressing myself in a creative way. Whether it’s for photography or making a garment or bringing two people together to make a conversation. Like, this is creativity, you know? I think it’s being observant with your everyday life and actually being present enough to be like, ‘Oh shit, that’s beautiful, that’s a moment’.” Episode #64 of The Hope Initiative with Matt Willocks.

Episode #64 of The Hope Initiative with Matt Willocks.
I started following Willocks on Instagram in mid 2020 after a mutual friend of ours tagged him in an Instagram story. What I saw in his own IG inspired me to dig a little deeper and ultimately I knew I had to have him on as a guest of the podcast. Whilst 2020 and 2021 have provided an enormous amount of challenges for humans everywhere, it’s people like Matt Willocks that remind me of why I started this podcast. Connection. Creativity. Community. All things at the forefront of what I love and things that are the core of what this great man is on the daily.
I’m honoured to present this epic chat with someone I hope to hang out with a lot more in the future. Please enjoy. xx
