In July 2024, Kyle Wright was diagnosed autistic as an adult—and everything shifted. He left gaming streams, picked up 100 mini Rubik’s Cubes, and started creating mosaic art that exploded on YouTube. In 60 days, Kyle doubled his subs; by December, one month pulled ~500K views and +2K subs. Now “Kyle Cubes” is a daily practice in creativity, routine, and faith—with a message at the center: Know That You Are Loved.

In this episode

  • Adult diagnosis & identity: turning shutdown into structure
  • Why cubes? Sensory satisfaction, predictability, and creative flow
  • Daily Shorts strategy: consistency, simple hooks, tight pacing
  • From burnout to purpose: building art and a movement
  • Partnering in life & art: how Cammy supports and co-creates
  • The heart of it all: spreading love, hope, and belonging—one cube at a time
