This work began during a time in my life when nothing was working, and I could not understand why.
In 2014, my life reached a breaking point.
I was struggling with deep depression, a marriage that was falling apart, and the lingering effects of a 12-year alcohol addiction I had only recently overcome. I had been to the emergency room twice within a short period of time and was facing the possibility of a serious neurological illness. At the same time, I was caring for my young daughter and felt completely overwhelmed by guilt and despair.
At my lowest moment, I believed there was no way forward and I broke.
What happened next changed the course of my life.
Through a profound shift in awareness brought about by a phone call from an old friend, I could suddenly see how deeply unconscious beliefs and patterns had shaped my entire experience of the world. With the new pinprick of awareness, I decided to try an experiment to see if changing my thoughts could change my life. I began the process of letting go of control, otherwise known as surrender. Since then, everything has changed.
This complete shift has transformed the way I understand suffering, identity, and the nature of reality itself. The journey continues.
Today, I work with individuals and leaders who want to understand the deeper patterns shaping their lives, decisions, and circumstances.
Our conversations are direct. We look at what is happening, and what may be shaping it.
I am currently writing a memoir, Return to the House of Truth, which explores this experience more fully.
If you feel drawn to this work, you are welcome to begin a conversation.
