The Journey Home picks up where Be the Lighthouse left off and follows me past 1,000 Days of Bound Lotus, through several Solstices, jobs, and well, through life itself.

I'm deeply honored to share my journey with you, may these pages inspire and carry you along, on your own journey, wherever it takes you.
