This is a true self-help book—in the most literal sense. Your SELF gets to do the helping. There are no promises of enlightenment in seven easy steps, no miracle habits or morning routines, and absolutely no pressure to “fix” yourself—especially not before finishing section one.
Freedom: A Field Guide is a collection of essays, stories, poems, images, and hard-won observations from one human who wandered widely, tried a lot of stuff, and eventually learned that the most useful compass was inside and accessible since day one. Along the way, there were workshops, retreats, revelations, faceplants, moments of grace, and plenty of laughter—mostly at herself.
Written with humor, honesty, curiosity, and a healthy suspicion of cultural and religious nonsense, this book explores what happens when you stop chasing answers and start listening instead. Not listening to experts, influencers, or inner critics—but to the quieter signals that tend to get drowned out by noise, expectation, and “shoulds.”
Each piece stands on its own and can be read in any order. Open it anywhere. Skip around. Linger. Re-read. Argue in the margins if that’s your style. This book is intentionally non-linear, because real insight rarely arrives in a straight line.
This is a field guide in the truest sense—meant for real terrain. Expect trail notes, warning signs, unexpected insights, and thought-provoking reminders that freedom doesn’t arrive all at once or from the outside. It shows up quietly, often disguised as a pause. Or a breath. Or the moment you stop trying so hard.
Thoughtful but not preachy. Spiritual but not religious. Funny, reflective, and occasionally irreverent, Freedom: A Field Guide offers companionship rather than instruction—for seekers, skeptics, over thinkers, and anyone who suspects that peace of mind may already be closer than they think.
Note: A portion of the book proceeds will be donated to Wellspring (at www.Wellspringcares.org) Ending relationship and sexual abuse in our community.
