Not in school. Not really anywhere. We are handed math, history, and a
hundred other subjects, then left to work out the most important one
alone.
Teach Love Today is the bet that it can be taught, experienced, and
learned, like anything else. Through a curriculum, if you want one.
Through talking it over with the people around you, and paying honest
attention to your own life. And through how we choose to live.
It is an experiment. My hope is that the things I make help spread the
idea a little, and that spending time with them helps you understand
yourself, which is where understanding each other has to start.
An open framework for understanding yourself and other people, from before school to the rest of your life. Not lesson plans, a model: seven stages, what becomes possible in each, and what it costs. Every factual claim is cited, including three that changed once I checked them. Free to take, free to argue with, and honest about what it cannot do. The idea everything else grew out of.
When you run your own show, the work quietly starts to feel like a verdict on your worth, and most business software only adds to the pressure. Warren takes some away. It handles the unglamorous core, time, clients, getting paid, without manufacturing urgency you do not need on top of what life already throws at you. Not slow business. Self-supporting business, the kind that sustains itself and supports the person running it.

For young men who feel lost, and have been taught that feeling lost is a failure. It is not. Somewhere to learn that your worth has nothing to do with the version of you social media keeps selling.

A community built so its structure carries some of the weight we were never meant to carry alone. For now, a dream and the idea of a small piece of land.
A dream
Two of these are real today.
If a sentence here made you think about someone specific, or about a
version of yourself you have not spoken to in a while, that is what
this is all about.
Loveslices (opens in a new tab) is the
one to start with. Open it tonight with someone you are fortunate enough
to love. Same question, answered separately, revealed together, and then
you talk about what you both actually said.
The curriculum is there if you want the model
first. Seven stages, every claim cited, free to argue with.
The other three do not exist yet. If you want to know when they do, or
collaborate on something else that fits this umbrella, email me and
say so. I read every one myself, and I will only write back when there
is something genuinely worth your time, which may be a while, and may
be never. LinkedIn (opens in a new tab) works
too.
