008 🚌 | form bus to car | magical growth.

We have choices. Before we could drive or afford taxi’s we took busses everywhere, eventually we could afford taxis, then a little later, we could afford a car. Change ‘afford’ in terms of money to time and energy…

007 🚌 | Avoid Being A Bus Wanker!

As I write this I’m sat in a garage in Cambridge while my car is having a health check, which falls rather neatly in to today’s topic, transport. When performing magic there are so many ways to approach it, I hear magicians say “I want to get the loudest reactions”, “I want to make…

006 Delivery | Give birth more often 🐣

We made a breakthrough! It might help you break through too (this isn’t an exaggeration). When we describe ourselves we tend to share our labels “I’m a Magician, introverted extrovert, who loves Battenberg and dabbles with Youtube”, this all may be true, but in telling this story I also affirm this identity…

003 Advice hoarding | Get your own! 🖕🏻

When we want to learn something new or level up our magic we seek advice, right? It makes sense to seek out wise words and build a solid theory of what needs to be understood and what to expect. However if you want to learn faster you need to start getting your own advice in order to…

002 Intent | They can smell it 🤥

Magic, I couldn’t tell you why I was drawn to it, but if I look back I can take a good guess. Being a younger brother and having a rebellious character probably had something to do with it. At 6 years old, I most likely enjoyed the idea of having something I could call mine. Magic had everything I needed…

001 Why I’m Taking Action 🥳

There I was on another Instagram LIVE with zero viewers, honestly, I felt shit. Why was I bothering to do it? Did people not believe in me? Maybe I’m just not good enough…

000 Get STOCKED | Maximise your magic & stay organised

FUNDAMENTALLY I believe one of the core pillars to sharing a quality experience of Magic with an audience is one of variety.  A variety of experiences leaves an audience with a wired brain filled to the brim with enchantment, and stories to tell. I first shared this framework in a lecture for the…
