📘 The Needy Little Boy Syndrome — PAPERBACK NOW AVAILABLE

Let’s clear the table and start fresh.

Because most of what we’ve been fed about masculinity—on podcasts, in locker rooms, even in self-help books—is fast food for the psyche. It fills the stomach but leaves the soul starving.

“Authentic masculinity is not something you do—it’s something you are, when the masks fall off and the boy inside you grows all the way up.”

Chapter 2 dives deep into what masculinity actually is—and what it’s not.

It’s not dominance.
It’s not disappearing.
It’s not performance.

It’s presence.

“He breathes. He listens. He remains.”

This chapter explores:

Masculinity as the riverbank—strong, steady, sacred.

Why the Nice Guy, the Alpha, and the Emotionally Absent aren't it.

What real masculine safety feels like—in the nervous system, not in theory.

How to stop performing, and start presiding.

If that speaks to something deep in you—or something you’ve been missing in your relationships—this chapter will crack open more than ideas. It will call your body, your boundaries, and your breath into truth.

🔗 The paperback is now available here:

Let’s keep walking.
Let’s keep remembering.
Let’s rebuild what was never meant to be lost.
