Endevouring to live a Heartcentered life in a fullspectrum
A student of the heart
Hi, and welcome. I’m glad you’re here, curious about who I am and what I might offer you on your journey.
Like so many, my path of self-inquiry and healing began in a place of pain and lack. I couldn’t seem to find the love I kept hearing about. I couldn’t feel it; I wanted it, longed for it.
My way of coping, of trying to fill the emptiness inside, was to be good and do good—to shape myself into what I thought others wanted. I trained for the “perfect” body, earned a respectable degree, and pursued the life I thought I was supposed to live. But deep down, something always knew I was heading in the wrong direction, or at least moving for the wrong reasons.
But what was the right direction? What were the right reasons?
A student of the heart
At 30, after excelling in my role as a construction engineer and project manager, I burned out. Rather than return to that path, I decided to cut ties with it and embark on a journey to discover my inner direction.
These last eight years have been a true exploration—an adventure and a school of life. I’ve traveled to remote areas, learning from indigenous cultures, participating in initiatory rituals, and rediscovering the desires of my own heart.
Over time, through these inner and outer journeys, my inner compass began to grow stronger. The love I had searched for outside myself began to emerge from within.
Today, I live just outside Stockholm with my partner in a small house, consciously creating a life that serves us and, in turn, our community. Part of this work includes helping other men deepen their connection to themselves and their hearts. To that end, I’m currently writing a book on the subject, tentatively titled Open Man.
I invite you to join me in this work and support my endeavour to make the inner journey accessible to men ready to walk their own path.
Wishing you all the best on your journey,
With love,
David
