Meet: Kris Bullock

13 years ago I quit my high-paying, stressful job so I could explore the world and live life on my own terms. 

Born + Raised:  Anchorage, AK

Currently Reading: The constant firehose of genius alpha in the Real Vision discord

Guilty Pleasure: Looking at cars I can't afford on Ebay.

Current Focus: Maintaining freedom and mobility and creating space for the next big opportunity I encounter. 

What I do: Stare at charts all day, make videos for Real Vision, play my Music Man Stingray, travel, and help people break out of the mainstream box that is our society. I believe that worrying about what other people think is the worst thing a person can do, and that if we all could just express what is truly in our hearts and minds then the world would be such a better place. 

Meet: Katie DiBenedetto

Once upon a time..... I was married, had a corporate job and lived a typical American life. Then bam! I had a powerful dream that prompted me to dive into the first of many entrepreneurial ventures and crumble all elements of my disconnected mainstream life. 

In 2010, I got divorced, traveled Europe solo, and returned home to fall in love with my best friend (Kris!) of many years. 

My first solo ventures were centered around pregnancy, birth and women's health. This sent me down the path of learning about all things alternative health, food, and nutrition. 

Here at Cock and Crow.... I keep up our travel journal and generally overshare. Sometimes I’ll do a website for someone really cool, but mostly I’m a bonafied Lady of Leisure.

Favorite creative outlet.... cooking and baking, posting “Boner Alerts” on Instagram, journaling.

Loves: Making lists. Drinking Earl Grey. Hates: People who crumple up paper grocery bags they are intending to reuse (instead of folding them neatly like a normal person). Cleaning behind the toilet. Recommends: Taking more baths. Reading Savage Love. Watching Please Like Me.

Our work has always overlapped: authoring books together, recording podcasts as a duo, blogging about complimentary subjects, etc. and one day we realized we were basically posting the same content on each of our individual websites.

So we decided to combine forces and collaborate together.

The name Cock & Crow came as a suggestion from a friend and seemed fitting: Kris being the Cock since he is the master of backyard chickens and is restoring his foreskin, Katie being the Crow since she's always on about something. The similar sounds to both of our first names helped, too.

There you have it. This is our home on the interwebs.
