The Approach


Life is not complete when lived only through the body. True wholeness comes from nurturing body, mind, and soul in harmony.

Why this exists: After years of noticing how measures of success often overlook inner life, I began gathering reflections from 2022. This book grew slowly from those observations.

Most men get the "Provider" talk early in life. We're told our value is basically tied to being a human ATM. Feed the family, pay the mortgage, keep the lights onβ€”that's the job.

1.
The Social Mirror: This is the imaginary crowd in your head. It wants points. It wants you to look like "The Man." It turns a simple act of help into a theatrical performance.
2.
The Thinking Mirror: This is that internal voice that is constantly ranking you. "Does this make me look weak? Does this make me look richer than him?" It's obsessed with safety and status.
