The Story Behind.That Introverted Guy

This journey began with my book, That Introverted Guy, and its central character, Eli. Though Eli is fictional, he’s my creative outlet—a voice for working through real challenges and realizations. In the book, Eli is on a mission to create something meaningful, a project that now lives on here in this blog and in The Letters of Eli. Guided by two voices within—Kai, the voice of calm and wisdom, and Ego, the voice of self-doubt. Eli navigates the struggle to stay grounded and purposeful amidst life’s struggles. Through him, I dive into this inner dialogue, exploring what it takes to find balance between clarity and doubt, purpose and distraction.

That Introverted Guy Book

From Eli’s story grew The Letters of Eli—an ongoing project of discussions, routines, and practices I use each week to stay focused and grounded. Each letter offers insights specifically for INFJs, along with practical applications of Stoic philosophy to help me keep simplicity, self-discipline, and balance at the center of daily life. These letters are more than reflections; they’re tools and conversations designed to support your own journey. To join the journey be sure to subscribe and receive The Letters of Eli directly in your inbox ever Sunday.
