I'm Lora!

Hey there!

For years, I’ve supported women through the wild terrain of midlife – navigating hormones, identity shifts, and the emotional weight of reinvention. But today, I want to share something personal. My husband recently published a book, and it’s one I believe deserves space in conversations about relationships, wellness, and emotional growth.

The book is called Son, Brother, Husband, Dad: Re-imagine Manhood, Rediscover You! It’s one of those rare books about masculinity that doesn’t preach or posture. It invites. It reflects. It gently challenges. Most importantly, he wrote it with kind honesty that only comes from lived experience.

What This Book Offers

Cover of Son, Brother, Husband, Dad: Re-imagine Manhood, Rediscover You! A bold, reflective book exploring emotional growth, identity, and masculinity.

The introduction alone stopped me in my tracks. He writes about a moment when someone told him, “You don’t have to live like that anymore.” That phrase became a turning point, a reminder that we all have choices, even when life feels chaotic or stuck.

This book is a guide for men who want to:

  • Reconnect with their values and identity
  • Reflect on how their past shaped their present
  • Build emotional resilience and self-trust
  • Redefine what it means to be a “good man” on their own terms

It’s filled with personal stories, practical exercises, and one-liners that linger. If you’ve been searching for books about masculinity that go deeper than surface-level advice, this one offers a refreshing, grounded perspective.

A Path Through the Complexity

One of the things I admire most about this book is how it acknowledges the emotional weight men often carry – quietly, invisibly, and without a roadmap. Being a man today isn’t simple. Between societal expectations, personal history, and the pressure to “just deal with it,” many men feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of roles they’re expected to play.

Rather than offering quick fixes, this book doesn’t pretend to have all the answers. Instead, it offers something more valuable: a way to pause, reflect, and understand how you got to where you are. It’s about tracing your own story, not to judge it, but to learn from it. For anyone exploring books about masculinity with real-life relevance, this is a standout. It’s not about becoming someone else; it’s about becoming more fully yourself.

Why It Matters to Me

While he was writing, I witnessed the process up close – the quiet hours, the rewrites, the moments of doubt and clarity. I supported him not just as a partner, but as someone who believes deeply in the power of personal transformation. And I saw how this book became a mirror for his own growth.

Along the way, it also sparked conversations between us; about legacy, vulnerability, and the quiet courage it takes to rewrite your story. As someone who works with women navigating midlife, I found myself reflecting on how our journeys often run parallel. When one partner grows, the ripple effect is real.

Where to Find It

If there’s a man in your life who’s ready to explore his own path, or someone you care about who might be quietly wrestling with identity, pressure, or purpose, this book is a beautiful starting point. ❤️

You can find Son, Brother, Husband, Dad: Re-imagine Manhood, Rediscover You! on Amazon, https://amzn.to/4mLiTF0.

It’s one of those books about masculinity that opens the doors to deeper conversations, both within and between us.
