The Awakening

Beyond the Binary

During a profound life challenge, I discovered the Law of Attraction. After losing my wife Caryn 20 years ago (November 26th), I used these principles and meditation for healing and transformation. This journey led me to become a certified coach and ultimately to manifest love again with Jennifer.
