Deane

Hi, I’m Deane from New Zealand. Along with a small team of like-minded and motivated Kiwis I produce light-hearted edutainment-type reels and content encouraging us to ponder the everyday ‘mind games’, which, bit-by-bit, can eat away our very souls, yet when addressed and caressed, can harness our minds to a life beyond limits.
