I wrote this book while I was still finding my own way through. Not from the other side of a tidy resolution — in the middle of the crossing, when I was doing exactly what you're doing, asking exactly what you're asking, and refusing to collapse even when collapsing would have been easier.
I've spent fifteen years walking this path, working alongside some of the earliest voices in this space, and quietly guiding people through experiences that don't have a name yet — connections so disorienting, so clarifying, so maddening that they crack you open whether you're ready or not.
What came out of my own journey — and thousands of hours of conversations with people just like you — is what I call the Original Love Blueprint. A completely different way of understanding what love is, what these connections are for, and who you actually are on the other side of one.
What happened to you wasn't a dead end. It was a preparation. This book is the map I wish I'd had.
