Lilas Fox, Twitch’s top mindful streamer, sits amid a soothing sea of green potted plants, accented by an adorably placed cat cam.
How gamers and streamers are reacting
Fox began their journey on Twitch two years ago in an effort to build a community of like-minded gaming enthusiasts. Fox has built an audience of 6,000 with their clinical approach and penchant for radical positivity, and hopes to reach a few thousand more!
“When I first started creating content… I never thought anything would come of it. I just wanted to share my approach to gaming, which had become so intertwined with my personal work with mindfulness,” Fox said in a written interview with Lifewire.
Fox grew up in a multi-generational home in New York City, with their mother, brother, and grandparents. This backdrop to their lives shaped who Fox would become as a person and creator. Quiet and picturesque, they described their childhood. Fox often found themselves lost in the fantastical worlds of fiction. Yet, beneath the surface, discontent was brewing.
