  • BREAKING THE COMPACT

    BREAKING THE COMPACT

    A practical guide to navigating AI-driven career change—with a full-page, built-in risk-assessment workbook.  The career bargain is changing. Know your risk before the market decides for you.  AI is becoming the third chair in the relationship between labor and capital, changing what skills are worth, which jobs are exposed, and how quickly careers can shift. Breaking the Compact helps readers assess their risk, identify their human advantage, and build a practical response. The built-in workbook turns uncertainty into action, with tools for career planning, reskilling, entrepreneurship, and navigating the workforce transformation ahead.

  • Life@7X

    Life@7X

    Seven decades. Seven careers. One continuing education in how to begin again. A life story about reinvention, resilience—and what experience teaches that success never can. Through seven careers on four continents Ben’s story delivers key takeaways on how life, work and happiness actually works. Life@7X moves from Memphis, finance, construction, horses, Hawai‘i, loss, reinvention, and resilience to the lessons gathered along the way. Told with humor, candor, and a dark irony in the bloodstream, it is not a victory lap. It is a field guide to surviving change, staying curious, and beginning again when life’s map seems to just disappear.

  • The Origin Matrix

    The Origin Matrix

    What if the biggest unanswered question is not where we came from—but why there is someone here to experience it? Charting a journey from a dream to the frontier where consciousness, science, information, and mystery collide. What if consciousness, information, matter, and the questions we call spiritual are not separate mysteries, but parts of the same puzzle? The Origin Matrix follows one man’s attempt to test an idea born in a dream against physics, biology, evolution, and evidence. It does not ask for belief. It asks questions, applies the Gift Shop Test, and invites readers to challenge every assumption—including the author’s.

  • Denial Is Not A Plan

    Denial Is Not A Plan

    Climate risk has moved from the weather report to your mortgage, insurance policy, and property value. You cannot control the hazard. You can change how your home responds to it. The climate crisis is no longer only about emissions. It is arriving at the front door through wildfire, flood, wind, heat, insurance, mortgages, and property confidence. Denial Is Not a Plan shows homeowners how to understand their exposure and make practical adaptation decisions. It connects resilience, insurability, maintenance, and long-term home value—and argues that safer housing is not surrender to climate change. It is preparation.
