Not a self-help book. A this-actually-happened book.

Brutally honest. Unexpectedly funny. The personal story of one man losing everything he thought defined him — and the journey back to himself.

"I was laughing on one page and completely wrecked on the next. I didn't expect to see my own divorce this clearly in someone else's story."

"I bought this hoping to understand what my ex went through. I ended up understanding my own part in it too. Didn't see that coming."

"I've been watching the men in my life struggle their way through divorce for years. This is the book I've been trying to hand them."
Hey, I’m Art.
Something brought you here. And I’m guessing it wasn’t a good something. Nobody gave me a manual for it either.
But if you’re here, there’s a good chance something cracked open — your relationship, your identity, or the version of your life you thought was solid. Maybe you’re in the middle of it right now. Maybe you’re just starting to surface.
I’ve been there — the sleepless nights, the spiral, the moment you catch yourself in the mirror and barely recognize the guy looking back.
I didn’t have a roadmap. So I went searching for answers to my own questions — and this book came out of that journey.
It’s not a manual and I’m not here to tell you I figured it all out. But somewhere in the process of looking honestly at myself, things started to shift. Slowly. Messily. For real.
That’s what Back to One is about. If any of it sounds familiar, you’re in the right place.
