Autorenporträt
Ken Guidroz co-authored a popular business book in 2010, Beyond the 401(k). Two years later he co-founded a training program for financial advisors called Cash Balance Coach which has educated thousands. Personal writing, however, is his passion-and has become a lifesaver. It started when wrote extensively in his journal to stay sane while his sons struggled with addiction, then continued when he wrote to Lucas while he was in prison, and culminated with this book about reconnecting with Lucas, fatherhood, marriage, and faith.Ken lives in Santa Clarita, California, with his wife, Joyce, to whom he has been married for over forty years. His three sons and their families live close by. He loves all things racket-sports, especially pickleball, and spends a lot of time hiking in the Sierra with his beloved dog, Mumford.
