Where We Belong, The Secret To Declassifying The Mind
"Where We Belong, The Journey To Declassifying The Mind", (Release in December 2026) is centered on the Core Concept of **Tactical Self-Mastery**, frames the process of anti-self-sabotaging as a four-stage intelligence operation. This approach fuses clinical expertise with the practical, disciplined framework of an intelligence operative, creating a rigorous protocol for mental resilience.
The third book in the Belonging Trilogy Series.
The four distinct stages outlined for the book are:
Stage 1: Reconnaissance (Self-Awareness)
This initial stage focuses on applying the principles of surveillance and data collection to one's internal world. The goal is to teach readers how to apply these techniques to their own **thoughts, emotions, and triggers which is "declassify their subconscious".
Stage 2: Threat Assessment (Trauma & Triggers)
Following self-awareness, this stage utilizes the logic of a threat analyst to categorize risks. Readers learn to “identify high-risk emotional situations”. This involves identifying the "toxic agents" which may include people, patterns, or thoughts—that are responsible for destabilizing their psychological state.
Stage 3: Counter-Intelligence (Boundaries & Defenses)
This stage shifts from analysis to active defense, establishing strong psychological boundaries. The core activity is establishing “psychological safe zones". Readers are taught practical, disciplined techniques—likened to a special operative's protocols—to defend their mental health against chaotic outside influence.
Stage 4: Mission Debrief (Integration & Growth)
The final stage applies a rigid, operational structure to past events to ensure future growth. This involves applying the rigid structure of a **post-mission review** to common psychological burdens like trauma, regret, and failures. The essential goal is to **extract lessons** from past experiences and ensure that negative behaviors are not repeated .
