Ashten is a truth-teller. A speaker of the secrets that are held close to the broken-hearted. In his advancement for empowerment, he seeks to blow open the locked doors that shelter the predatory people that hide behind them; preying on the vulnerable. As a nurse and a Master Reiki Practitioner, he feels blessed to journey with people in their weakest moments. He is uplifting and hopeful and with intentions for the healing of the wounded he sets forth each day. He hopes that this book - his story - will offer catharsis to those who need it and enlightenment for those who had little or no clue of the extent of grief another soul can sorrow through.
