For over twenty years, I’ve worked with men at the edges of their lives—fathers, husbands, seekers, nice guys, and warriors—who know something has to change.
The masks are slipping. The strategies aren’t working. The old ways no longer serve.
If you’re feeling the call to go deeper—to face your shadow, reclaim your power, and step into a more grounded, honest version of yourself—this is your invitation.
The Inner Way is more than a journal. It’s a map. A descent. A community. A way forward.
I’ve been a licensed therapist for over a decade, walking with men through some of the darkest and most defining moments of their lives.
But if I’m honest—this path began long before I ever sat in a therapist’s chair. It started when I began asking the deeper questions:
Why do I feel like I’m never enough?
Why do I keep abandoning myself to please others?
Where is my fire?
My voice?
My truth?
The answers didn’t come from books or techniques. They came from going inward. From facing my own shadow. From grief, from breakdown, from hitting the wall and listening for what came after.
That listening became The Inner Way—a journal and process I created for men like me.
Men who are ready to stop performing and start feeling.
Men who know they can’t keep numbing, hiding, or pleasing their way through life.
Men who want to live awake.
“I am very good at this! I bring my personal experience to this work. I would not ask a man to do personal work that I haven’t already done myself. This is the beginning of a personal journey, I’ve been down this road and I’m ready to walk with you into the shadows. I’ve been there and I am not afraid of the dark.”
-Ran Stovall
I still work with a handful of 1:1 clients, but my energy is shifting.
I now lead 8-week men’s groups that follow The Inner Way—a structured journey of deep introspection, shadow work, and self-reclamation. This is hard work! Self reflection that will bring up things you’ve buried. It’s the dark night of the soul – yes – we go there. I know this territory and I will walk with you through all of it. This is what I do! What I offer.
I also offer limited 1:1 premium guidance for men who are in transition, grief, or awakening—and who want direct support while walking this path.
If you’re feeling the pull inward, the breakdown before the breakthrough—I’d be honored to walk beside you.
