Most people struggle to fix a leaky faucet. Allan L. Redmond (A.L.R.), however, can fix a multi-billion-dollar corporation in his sleep. But standing on his 42nd-floor balcony at midnight, Allan realizes his own life has the structural integrity of a “submarine with screen windows.”
My newest book, Relationships (A.L.R.): Feeling Appreciated, Loved, and Respected, is what I call a “Smart-Com.” With Claude Sonnet’s writing assistance, A.L.R. bridges the gap between the cynical reality of the corporate world and the intuitive world of spiritual healing.
We follow Allan—a man who currently feels like a “fart in a gale of wind”—as he navigates a disastrous divorce and a career crisis that would break a lesser man. His life collides with Alicia L. Running Bear (A.L.R.), an intuitive trauma therapist who challenges Allan to stop “optimizing” his life and actually start feeling it.
In this narrative roadmap, you’ll learn how to:
- Identify the “Emotional Vampires” draining your energy.
- Master the “Oxygen Mask Rule” of self-preservation.
- Spot the “Yellow Snow” (red flags) in the wilderness of modern dating.
This isn’t just a story about a breakup; it’s a guidebook for anyone who has ever felt “drawn and quartered” by life’s expectations. It’s a path to the only thing that actually matters: a life where you finally feel Appreciated, Loved, and Respected.
