             Take yourself from             

surviving to passionately thriving

     Why Free?     

I moved out of home at 16, escaping a challenging childhood and traumatic living conditions. Back then I didn’t have the money for coaches, courses, or self-help books. I couldn’t afford the knowledge I needed to pull myself up. The availability of professional services was woefully in-adequate and charity could only offer limited support.

But I did whatever I could to survive, heal, and ultimately thrive. I pledged that I would write the books and create the resources that I desperately needed but was unable to find or afford and give them away for free.

If these resources help you, please share them with someone who would also benefit!

This is the story of my childhood.

It provides an insight into the reality of being the son of an addict, paranoid schizophrenic, chronic hoarder and drug dealer.

For as long as I knew him, my dad dealt. Every day, a procession of desperate, malnourished and volatile addicts would visit our house looking to score. From a child’s perspective, they seemed to have only one goal - acquiring their next high. Growing up in this environment had a profound impact on my life and world view.

This is the story of a dark night of the soul, of traversing the depths of despair, and of rebirth.

It shows the reality of hitting rock bottom. Not by a self-reported narrative written after the fact, but through unfiltered poetic expression written in real time during breakdown and recovery.

The poems within this collection were written over a 24-month period and are presented in chronological order. They show the inner tumult and turmoil of a man desperately trying, and failing, to hold together the crumbling status quo of his prior existence.

They show the short-lived hopes, the shattered dreams, and the impact of ill-advised interventions that made everything worse.

They also show that there is light at the end of every tunnel.

That like a caterpillar entering a cocoon, sometimes what feels like destruction is in fact a necessary part of the transformation process, and perhaps that, like a seed, the engulfing darkness may in fact be the dirt from which you can bloom.
