For over twenty years I have been married to Andrea, and together we are raising four kids — 18, 17, 14, and 13. I come from a line of entrepreneurs and have spent most of my working life inside family enterprise; today I run two restaurants and a small portfolio of real estate ventures. The From Chaos to Calm books came out of the other half of my life. Somewhere along the way I noticed that the people sitting across the table from me — partners, employees, friends, my own children — were all wrestling with versions of the same question: how do I get unstuck? I went back to school for a Masters in Counselling Psychology to learn how to sit with that question more usefully, and I now spend several days a week as a Registered Psychotherapist doing exactly that. I write the way I work — in stories. Most of my books follow a therapist named Brad and the people who walk into his office, because I have always believed we recognize ourselves more easily in someone else's chair than in a self-help checklist. I am not writing as someone who has it figured out. I am writing as a fellow traveler — still learning how to lead a business, a marriage, a family, and a life with a little more awareness and a little less noise.
