Today I have someone incredibly special with me. Not just a renowned Toltec Master of Transformation, not just a teacher or an author, but a dear friend to me and to everyone he meets.

don José Ruiz is a Toltec Master, a storyteller, the author of The Fifth Agreement, Ripples of Wisdom, and My Good Friend the Rattlesnake. He's a speaker, a devoted vegan, a coffee lover, and someone who has dedicated his life to translating ancient Toltec wisdom into practical teachings that bring more truth, love, and personal freedom into the world.

But beyond all of that... José is someone who embodies unconditional love. He walks through the world in a way that makes people light up when they see him. His presence softens defenses. His humor and humility make the teachings feel accessible. And the way he loves openly, generously, and without condition is medicine this world desperately needs more of.

José shares his own personal story, the obstacles he has worked to overcome, his journey inside of relationships and addiction. He will inspire you to remember you are more than your human experience. You are infinite, and you have the power to create the life of your dreams. You have the power and courage to love yourself and soften to love others and the world around you, even if you do not agree with their personal dream.

This conversation is unscripted and straight from the heart. No planned questions. No performance. Just two friends sharing truth, laughing, exploring, and letting the moment guide us.

I'm so honored to share this space with him, and I hope you feel the love, the freedom, and the permission that José naturally awakens in everyone he meets.

A Compassionate Guide To Understanding The Patterns That Once Protected You

Whether you know the C-word, "Codependency,"and feel ready for this book, or the word itself makes you recoil from it like a hot flame, I promise this journey will surprise you, and hopefully inspire you to pass it on to a friend. Codependency is often misunderstood. It is not just people-pleasing or insecurity, it lives on a spectrum that almost everyone dances on. It shows up in the one who over-gives and the one who withdraws, in the perfectionist, the caretaker, the person who stays guarded, and the one who has spent years abandoning themselves to keep the peace. If you have ever related to others from a place of fear rather than authenticity, this book was written for you. Inspired by the author's beloved Healing Our Relationships podcast, this workbook draws from eighteen years of lived spiritual exploration. The workbook does not ask you to see yourself as broken, or to become someone better, but simply to remember and return to the authentic truth of who you already are. Through a lens of compassionate curiosity you will explore five core areas of codependent patterns, patterns many of us adapted to survive when our needs, feelings, and truth felt unsafe to express. Each area is explored through a five-step inquiry process that reveals the pattern, honors its origin, acknowledges the cost, and re-orients you towards new possibilities. Then, it brings it all into the practice of daily life. This is where the mind stops running old patterns on autopilot, the nervous system begins to heal, and you reclaim the power of choice. You are not here to judge yourself or label yourself as being codependent. You are here to honor what once protected you and to reclaim the parts of yourself that got lost along the way. If you have spent years abandoning yourself, shape-shifting for others, staying walled off or emotionally unavailable, or repeating painful relationship patterns, this is your invitation back to the most important relationship of all- the one you have with yourself.
