Hey, I’m Bella Smith*
Thanks for checking out my website. Hope you’re in love by now.
I spent the past year in meditation thanks to a contemplative residency @ Huber Sanctuary, the guest student program @ Insight Meditation Society, and a month-long silent retreat @ Spirit Rock.
In tandem, I speedran an education in C-PTSD, dysfunctional family systems, somatics, narcissism (esp. covert narc, co-narc + narc dynamics, abuse etc.), inner child and parts work, MDMA therapy, and how all of this maps onto meditation map theory (aka the dukkhananas & traditional Buddhist conceptions of the path).
Previously:
I worked as an Associate Producer and Editor at
Muddy Water. I worked with one other guy to produce 5 documentaries in tandem. (yeah, it was nuts)
I was a freelance Associate Producer for VICE Munchies, producing 10 YouTube videos in a year's time.
I edited for my favorite living documentarian, Caveh Zahedi.
I graduated from Duke in 2022. [RESUME]

Currently:
I own and run Letterspade — a video agency and house production team out of NYC. We do videos for founders and builders and creatives.
Reach out if you’re charmed or looking to be.
