A Comical, Poignant Deep-Dive into the Architecture of the Soul.
Most people can't fix a leaky faucet, let alone a multi-billion-dollar corporation. Allan L. Redmond (A.L.R.)
can do the latter in his sleep. But as he stands on his 42nd-floor balcony at the stroke of midnight, he realizes
his own life has the structural integrity of a "submarine with screen windows."
Relationships: A.L.R. is a "Smart-Com" that bridges the gap between cynical corporate reality and intuitive
spiritual healing. It follows Allan-a man who views his life as a "fart in a gale of wind"-as he navigates the
wreckage of a disastrous divorce and an existential career crisis. His journey intersects with Alicia L. Running
Bear (A.L.R.), an intuitive soul/trauma therapist who challenges his "Architect" brain to stop optimizing and
start feeling.
Through a narrative roadmap of 26 chapter titles by the author and story text assisted by Ai, readers follow
Allan as he:
. Identifies the "Emotional Vampires" and "Functional Cannibals" draining his vital energy.
. Learns the "Oxygen Mask Rule" of self-preservation.
. Navigates the "Yellow Snow" of red flags in modern dating.
. Discovers the "Magic" in the spaces between the notes of a duplicitous life.
This is not just a story about a breakup; it is a guidebook for anyone who has ever felt "drawn and quartered"
by life's expectations. It offers a clear, hard-won, and occasionally humorous, path to the only destination that
matters: a life where you finally feel Appreciated, Loved, and Respected.
