Precision Manifesting: Opening the Eye on the Process Floor
In progressManifesting treated as a feedback-controlled process, not a wish — intention, action, data, adjustment — built from a machining and kaizen background. Two editions are in the works: a direct entry point, and a deeper companion edition (9 chapters, near-final) for readers already on the path, drawing on Chantel Prat, Jenn Donahue, Erich Fromm, Brandon Webb & John David Mann, and Brené Brown.
Micro-Healing
In progressShort, honest practices for processing grief and unresolved emotion in small doses — a few minutes at a time, then back to the day. Built on the idea that a recurring intrusive thought isn't noise; it's an unresolved signal. Draws on grief research including Mary-Frances O'Connor's work on the grieving brain.
