Приєднався 13 кві 2015
Welcome to Authentic Living with Pete, a personal journey into my life, my mind, and my heart. This channel is where I share my wisdom, joys, sorrows, and pains-raw and unfiltered-with the hope that my experiences can resonate with someone out there.
I’m just an old man with ADHD, navigating life’s complexities, and if anything I share helps even one person find peace, joy, or clarity, then it’s all been worth it.
Here, you’ll find:
Musings from the Heart: Deep dives into life’s challenges and triumphs, and reflections on today’s world.
Music for the Soul: Curated soundtracks to move your spirit and body, blending relaxation with rhythm.
Authentic Connection: Thoughts, stories, and practices that celebrate life in all its messy, beautiful complexity.
This channel isn’t about perfection or having all the answers-it’s about embracing the journey, one authentic moment at a time. Thank you for joining me on this path. Let’s grow, stumble, and thrive-together. 🌿✨

Why I’m Back on YouTube: Reclaiming My Mental Health and Strength
After stepping away from social media for my mental health, I’ve decided to reactivate my UA-cam channel as a way to reclaim my strength and show up for the conversations that matter. In this video, I discuss one of President Trump’s new rollbacks on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies-a move that feels like a disturbing echo of the injustices of the past, particularly the era of slavery.
These rollbacks don’t just dismantle progress-they disproportionately harm marginalized communities, stripping away protections and support systems that were designed to level the playing field. I explore how these policies impact the lives of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), LGBTQIA+ individuals, immigrants, and other vulnerable groups.
This is a call to action for us to stay informed, stay engaged, and fight against policies that perpetuate inequality. Together, we can ensure that history doesn’t repeat itself and that every person is given the dignity and opportunity they deserve.
Join me on this journey of awareness and advocacy, and let’s build a more inclusive future together.

Thank you for being you, Pete!
I thought that was an excellent video. You express yourself very well. Easy to listen to and no umms or empty space. I am going to subscribe because your content is was meaningful for me at my stage of my life and I feel that it can be meaningful to many other viewers. I wish you luck and positive feedback on your channel. Thank You
That is so kind of you. I ask for every blessing to come your way
Fear does hold us back, sadly.
Appreciate the detailed breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
PLEASE RELEASE THIS PERFECTION ON SPOTIFY, I'M BEGGING YOU!
Aw thank you so much :) I am thinking of doing just that.
This guy is the same guy giving reports in Israel
Thank you for sharing your experience and journey as you strive to live your life as authentically as possible. This gave me a lot of insight as well as inspiration as to how I desire to show up in my own life authentically as “the real me”.
Thank you so much for that :) I wish you so much JOY and Happiness in your journey.
I truly believe that self-doubt is an essential ingredient in self-evolution and expanding consciousness....I often say to myself: "I am an idiot....I am the Sequoia". In other words, when I realize how small, petty, and insignificant I can be, I then become aware of the vast and infinite possibilities that this life can hold and express....It's worth noting that the Sequoia, the largest tree on earth, comes from a very small seed.
Gosh I love that so much. It isn't really about how we feel in the moment. It's about how we identify with it. I feel the wisdom from what you say is the strength comes not from you thinking you are everything but that there is so much more than you can ever truly be. It is like we are in a vast field of possibilities that we can never fully experience. Never ending exploration of more and no need to think we have it all figured out :)
I'm so sorry your brother passed, Pete - even when it's time to go, it's still hard to say goodbye, because we miss them so. All the best to you with everything in 2025! And, regarding vision boards, I've made vision boards and books every few years for the last 30 years, and I've working on my planning for this next year for this last month. May 2025 bring us all love, peace, and joy, however uncertain it may look right now!
Karen I would love to hear how you are doing for your vision boards? How many have you seen manifest and did they manifest the way you expected them to?
Hello, it was very nice to hear you tell your things, greetings from Nicaragua and I'm sorry for your loss.
I appreciate that so much :)
Amei 👏👏👏
Thank you for listening :)
Great video but the white-hot light of a thousand suns reflecting off your forehead the whole time makes it a hard watch. I agree though challenging times indeed
Lol I appreciate the feedback and it made me chuckle. We just moved into the house so I definitely need to work on my setup

Is Really good

Un buen comienzo
Thank you for listening :)

Thank you for listening :)
What are you afraid of?
That is a very good question and one I ask myself often. I grew up in a home where fear kept you safe and it can be hard to unlearn that.
I wake up at 3:30 PM every night. I don’t understand it !
Do you have anything you do?
I lost three family members in such a short time. My husband, mother and older sister. I had already lost my 16 year old sister in a wreck and my dad so now I am 63 living alone and I feel so sad especially around holidays. That is probably why I can’t sleep.
Not always at 2 am. Sometimes 3, sometimes 4, sometimes 5.
Do you just try to go back to sleep or do you have something you do?
@Petecossaboon I have supplements by my bed like melatonin, L-tryptophan, turmeric and such I take during the night to go back to sleep.
You are so right on! Thank you for sharing
You are so welcome
ME!!!
Do you just try to go back to sleep or what do you do?
Wow it’s so nice 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
This hit me so hard. Yesterday, I was really missing my aunt and another person who had been my room mate for years. You are right, you don't turn off our patterns around loved ones who have been big parts of our lives. It's definitely a big part of me not wanting to be in my house right now. Big hugs Pete. It will take time. It's better to go through all of these emotions rather than not allowing yourself to process by going through it. Much love.
I think that’s why Tommy orchestrated it so perfectly that we moved into the new house the day after he passed
thanks you for your good work
So nice of you

I just stumbled upon your channel & it’s absolutely lovely, from the videos to your message (the bio). Merry Christmas, Tanya in Connecticut 🎄💚
Thank you so much!
Sounds like some toxic positivity to me.
Thank you for watching my video. My goal was to promote optimism and not toxic positivity. Please watch this video where I go more in depth. Also, I would love to see you do a video on your own experience. ua-cam.com/video/hLwVgvkZNXo/v-deo.html
this seems like bad advice
