The father wound is rarely a single sentence. It's what was missing. Attention, boundaries, warmth.

Many men then become the father they would have needed. For everyone. Except themselves.

In one-to-one work we don't get into a story about him. We go to where the body is still waiting for him.

If this is your theme: One-to-one work, or the Intensive Call of the Ancestors in Aljezur. First, a conversation.
