About Brent
"I spent the first half of life building a career around achievement, reaching C-Suite status, traveling the world, speaking, launching new technologies, and building businesses. After a 7 year journey that led through some dark places, plant medicine journeys, and eye-opening realizations, it became evident that nothing external was ever going to fill the void. As the reality of divorce after 18 years of marriage sunk in, I began to see the grind for what it truly was, bringing clarity to what really matters in life. Beginning with a divine 'tap on the shoulder', I stepped out of corporate America, put everything else on hold, and wrote my first book.
'Papercuts: The Art of Self Delusion,' set to launch in the summer of 2023, paves the road for others to break free from victimhood and embrace a life of integrity. It has allowed me to bring my passion for a life well-lived, and well-traveled, to help others integrate and build healthy rituals around being bold in body, mind, and spirit. My home base is in Phoenix, AZ, I am the father of two amazing teenage daughters and am an active member of Front Row Dads - a mastermind and charitable community that prioritizes a family first, business second mindset."
