All the bad stuff out there was getting me down and making me feel powerless. So I decided to do something, anything – and that was when I decided to get involved. Last year, I took part in a voter registration drive in Los Angeles, because one of the most fundamental ways to feel empowered is to vote. People think, “Oh, I’m only one person” but it’s like, “Bro, if we all thought that way nothing would ever change.”

You can make a difference in so many ways. Make sure what you’re buying is animal cruelty free. Find out what impact the food you’re eating is having on global warming and the environment. There’s a reason the Amazon’s on fire. It may sound stupid and simplistic, but enough of us doing the right things will make this world a better – and a happier – place.

What also makes me feel better is music. I only have to listen to a song like ‘Something’ by The Beatles to be reminded of all that’s good and beautiful in the world. That’s one of my go-tos if I’m feeling sad.
