On the streets of Exeter, spontaneous conversations often uncover how deeply music and personal reflection anchor us through life's chapters. In this feature, we connect with William to talk about inspiration, overcoming hard times, and what makes him feel alive.
For William, feeling alive is closely tied to the immersive experience of music:
"I really like listening to albums... such a nice way to get a condensed bit of inspiration, I just think it's very good for the soul."
Opening up about navigating a difficult period and finding strength on the other side, William shares an honest reflection on resilience:
"Without going into too much detail about it, last year was awful... went through some difficult stuff & we're at the other side now, I think I'm a better person for it... You have to steel yourself, you have to be resilient."
Closing our conversation, William shares a reassuring message of hope for the world:
"Keep fighting on, things will get better eventually, I swear, they will get better... I know it doesn't seem like it, but they will."
