For over fifteen years, I have written and advised on love, intimacy, and relationships, with a focus on empowering women. But life has a way of surprising us, and my own search for change led me on an extraordinary journey of self-discovery. It was both breathtakingly beautiful and profoundly challenging—a path that gifted me invaluable lessons on life, spirituality, love, purpose, and meaning.

The first spark for What She Taught Me came on a warm night by the Gulf of Mexico. It was there that the wisdom of remarkable women began to illuminate a world I had walked through unknowingly.. These encounters opened my eyes to truths about connection and identity that forever changed my perspective.

​

That journey didn’t end there. It carried me through the transformative experience of becoming a father—a role that continues to teach me more than I ever imagined. These books are deeply personal and written with the hope of offering men insight and guidance through the most significant stages of their evolution.

​

If you're seeking a story of transformation and wisdom, or simply looking to find deeper meaning in your own journey, What She Taught Me and What She Taught Me, Too are the books that you should add to your reading list today.
