In this episode of The Quiet Riot Show, we sit down with Winnipeg photographer and videographer Trav Anema, whose world shifted after losing his mom. Instead of letting grief crush him, Trav found a way to transform it into fuel — but the process wasn’t clean, easy, or inspirational-post perfect.

We dive into the uncomfortable questions most men avoid:
What do you do when life forces you to slow down? How do you turn negativity into something that doesn’t destroy you? And what if the things we chase — money, status, success — aren’t actually the things that make us feel alive?
Trav opens up about how his mom, even while sick, pushed him to grab life with both hands and stop treating happiness like something that comes later. Her influence forced him to rethink everything — what matters, what doesn’t, and why living in the present might be the only real way to beat depression and anxiety.

We talk about gratitude in the simplest forms — like celebrating every green light you hit — and how showing up for your life today pays more than all the future “interest” we think we need to build. This conversation is real, raw, and full of the kind of honesty men rarely give themselves permission to speak out loud.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, heavy, or unsure how to move forward after loss… this episode might give you the perspective you didn’t know you needed.
