In this special micro bonus episode about the launch of the official Luke Storey Merch line, Bailey and I give you the backstory on my favorite designs and explain why I started doing merch in the first place. Hear about the two downloads I got for all 100-plus original designs, which got the whole enterprise in motion.
Along the way, we dive into my 17-year career as a Hollyweird fashion stylist, stumbling into working for Aerosmith during their 90s comeback, and styling music videos, magazine shoots, costumes, and tours for hundreds of bands and celebs like Kanye West, Christina Aguilera, and Marilyn Manson.
This collection merges my passion for fashion with the gamut of lifestyle topics we've talked about on the show over the past eight years: biohacking, metaphysics, psychedelics, spirituality, conspiracies, and more. With designs for men, women, and kids on clothes and accessories, it represents The Life Stylist ethos – our core values, attitudes, and interests.
So let your freak flag fly and express what’s important to you. Broadcasting the right signals with a meaningful message might just be the key to letting like-minded and like-hearted new friends find you.

Bailey had this idea and I thought it was a damn good idea and this is going to be a little I guess walk back down memory lane to my former life working in the entertainment and fashion industry in Holly Weared California and how that eventually led to doing the work that I do now in the wellness |

| 1:15.8 | what was it like? Yeah it was 17 years of my life which is crazy I figured that |
| 1:22.4 | math out at some point because I got sober when I was |
| 1:27.0 | 26 years old which was in 1997 and in the late 80s, I guess 89 or so when I moved to Hollywood, I dated a girl, now a woman |

| 2:21.3 | stylist and so she was the one that like dressed me |
| 2:24.4 | and then she helped me get a couple other gigs and introduced me to a photographer and as it |
| 2:29.2 | turned out the modeling career was very short-lived because I was like a full-blown drug addict rock and |
| 2:35.1 | roller and I remember I went to an agent and they said yeah you're a pretty good-looking |
| 2:39.0 | kid but you're going to have to go to the gym and get muscles and cut your |
