Riley Elliott Instagram – A weekend of crazy context!!

Friday, speak to hundreds of school kids about the importance of sharks and our oceans thanks to @mazda_nz and our annual Treemendous circuit. 
Saturday: attend the boat show to highlight the incredible support I have had from @extremeboats.nz @yamahamarinenz @gfabtrailers @raymarine_nz @seadek who put together a boat package which has enabled the Great White Project in NZ and a @sharkweek show to be released this summer. Also to share my occupational journey with the next generation of kids, encouraging following your passion with the necessity of working hard. 

Sunday: turn up to a Hollywood set to work with the awesome Jason Momoa @prideofgypsies sharing a passion for the ocean, it’s incredible creatures, the cultural connections with it. Jason is obviously a hugely successful actor but he was more so a genuine, kind at heart, incredibly hard working man who had friends and family on set and I was stoked to have been invited by him! He also made me have a massive bonus fan girl moment by inviting two of my favourite ocean legends on set – @mikecoots who is an incredible photographer and shark ambassador, having lost a leg to a Tiger shark attack, Mike is such a powerful messenger of pro shark appreciation. And @kimi_swimmy an incredible women who is so humble and kind that you fully recognise what living in the ocean does for one’s personality. A ray of complete sunshine and one which inspired my lovely wife @amberandfriendsphoto to become a mother in the face of fear of losing one’s identity or ability to play in the sea. So powerful have been Kimi’s stories that I read up on the incredible Haenyeo women freedivers from Jeju and Amber created Project Hapū aimed at showcasing how incredible women are through pregnancy and ocean lives. 

After such a weekend of massive context shifts from Hollywood to school classrooms, I think the highlight will always be the sharing of knowledge and information with others, in efforts to improve the world around us. The shiny stuff can be nice but the natural world is what keeps us alive
Riley Elliott Instagram – I’m going to be a dad! 

So stoked to have got to a point in this journey where Amber and I feel confident enough to share our joy, because the biggest thing learnt so far, has been the realities behind trying. I feel like I have a new found sensitivity, likely in part to aid in becoming a father but also because I have felt so powerless in the hurdles my incredible wife has overcome. Miscarriages are things I had never heard much about, but when you are unlucky and experience them, you realise you are not alone and in fact so many friends have run the same road at times. For those who haven’t had to, I do not mean to take anything away from your experiences, I imagine and will likely see that creating a human that then entirely depends on you is hard enough. This will hopefully be our next chapter. But up to this point all I can say is that women are so incredibly strong, so driven, and so capable. It’s really hard when you as a guy feel like the car driving alongside the railway tracks and it’s starting to sway. What I’ve learned so far is all you can do is be a rock of support and tell them that everything will be alright. 
Seeing tears rush from my wife at our half way scan, being happy tears, made the journey all worth it. To all those mums and ones to be, you are amazing. None of us would be here without you. To all those dads, I can’t wait for dad group chat lol. 
My next big task before the baby comes is to figure out how I juggle my existing 6year old wolf who never likes sharing the back seat!
