Is this you?

Finishing a shift feeling like you've run a marathon inside your own head?

Being undermined, blamed or gaslit at work, and starting to doubt yourself?

Snapping at the people you love, or feeling nothing at all?

Running on empty, and tired of advice that doesn't survive a real week?

If you nodded at any of these, you're in the right place.

About Philip

I'm Philip Lye. My books aren't built on theory. They come from more than 30 years of pain, depression and burnout, and the long road back to wholeness.

I hold a doctorate in cross-cultural training, a Graduate Diploma in Human Resource Management and Industrial Relations, and I'm a qualified accountant in both the UK and Australia. None of that protected me. I spent years being bullied, gaslit and manipulated at work, until I sought the help I needed to stop it and rebuild. Later, as full-time carer for my late wife Janine, a tetraplegic after three spinal strokes, I met the same patterns again in the care system. I studied medicine and pharmacology independently to hold my ground, and worked through to forgiveness.

Every guide is written for the person living it, and for the person standing beside them.

I also write about travel and culture in the Middle East, including Kurdistan. My field guide, How to Navigate Conflict Zones Responsibly, is in the e-books above.
