Dan Roberts was born in eastern Ontario, Canada and grew up in a nice, small, homogenous town. Over time and with changing geography he met a diversity of people and was exposed to different ways of life. Each new person or destination was a chance to experience new things, and to learn.

He’s lived in small towns and big cities, played sports, and been a successful art photographer (@HackTheLight). He studied applied physics before choosing a career in software engineering, and his current business is an event ticketing and membership platform called Multipass.

With a late discovery of likely neurodivergence (neurospicy?), change can be both thrilling and difficult for him. Change is also inevitable, and embracing personal growth is a core principle of Dan’s life. Sometimes this means uprooting deep mental roots, trying something new, and this book is evidence of that.

After four decades of life and relationships, largely based in emotional monogamy, polyamory thrust the door of change wide open. His journey into this new life has been exciting, extremely costly and painful, and ultimately successful.

Non-attachment brings peace, and granting freedom to those around us brings respect.
