This Is Not a Book You Finish.
It's a Path You Walk.

I Am Becoming is a nine-book journey of reflection, presence, and lived transformation — written for those who are done fixing themselves and ready to live.

"The waking comes before the rising. It comes in the dark, in the quiet hours when the world still sleeps. It comes as a whisper, a stirring, a gentle invitation to remember who you are beneath all you have become."

— From The Waking, Entry 1

Nine volumes. One unfolding journey. Written for the seeker, the returner, the one learning to stay.

What Is I Am Becoming

In seasons of profound change, we are not meant to walk alone. The I Am Becoming series is a quiet companion for these times — a collection of writings to hold as you navigate the spaces between who you were and who you are becoming. It is a practice of patient unfolding, not of hurried self-correction.

These are not books to be rushed through or completed, but to be returned to. They are anchors in uncertainty, offering reflection for the moments when you need grounding, not guidance. This is a journey of remembering who you are, and these books are simply a place to rest along the way.

BOOK TWO

The Standing

A Journal of Mantras, Reflections, and Sacred Writing

"What holds you when the waking is done? The Standing is the practice of remaining — upright, open, unwavering."

The Path Unfolds Over Time

I Am Becoming is a quiet path for those ready to walk with themselves rather than outrun themselves. The journey unfolds over nine volumes, each created to meet you in a different season of your inner life — from the first stirring of awakening to the grounding work of standing and seeing, and on through the essential acts of clearing, returning, and living more fully.

There is no right or wrong place to enter the practice, as every book is a doorway in itself. Yet, for those starting the journey, The Waking offers a gentle hand. It is the natural entry point to a path of reflection that deepens with each step.

Not an Answer, But a Space to Ask

These books do not tell you what to fix, achieve, or optimize. They do not offer five-step plans or promise a better version of you. The world has enough of that noise.

This is a quieter practice. It is a place to pause. A way to listen more closely to your own life. I Am Becoming offers language for what you may already feel, providing a space for your own wisdom to surface. It is a companion for the questions, not a manual for the answers.

A Note from the Author

"I wrote these words not as a teacher, but as a fellow traveler. Like you, I am navigating the beautiful, messy, and sacred terrain of being human."

"My hope is that this book serves as a gentle mirror, reflecting back to you the wisdom that already resides within your own heart. May it be a place of rest when you are weary, and a source of courage when you are ready to rise."
