Challenges, chaos, threats and shadows are an innate part of our existence.

He lives with his wife and family in the Pacific Northwest and in his spare time enjoys boating, archery, precision shooting, and supporting his community as a firefighter/EMT. Lev Pouliot (they/them) is a community mental health advocate and practitioner, teacher and facilitator, and published author whose work aims to offer critical perspectives to both ancient and modern human dilemmas. They are a poet, epistolary, and Michigan native and are currently most interested in mythology, nonmonogamy, and motorcycles.
