Hi, I'm M. Aurelius Higgs

I'm passionate about the power of words and human connection.Through my work with Certain Future Press, I'm dedicated
- to create empowered parent-child relationships
- in traditionally underserved communities worldwide,
- by focusing on communication, storytelling, and languageWhy?
Because of them...
My father, Leon, and mother, Rachel.

My father gave me 3 invaluable gifts:
1. He gave me life.
2. He literally gave me a good name.
3. He gave me his story (...and I was honored to narrate the audiobook)

My mother blessed me with 3 more priceless gifts:
1. She gave me her joyous spirit for life.
2. She gave me an example of 'perseverance beyond belief'.
3. She gave a reason to serve the world (...in her story of how and what she overcame, as told to me by my tita.)

My life flourishes because of the collective wisdom passed down during my formative years in my local culture and our broader global community.Through my multi-national parents, aunties, uncles, elders, mentors, caregivers, and so on—their stories, diverse experiences, and insights helped shape my character and taught me how to grow from life's challenges.They showed me how to be 'stress progressive'; manage, leverage, and grow from the inevitable and necessary stressors of life.Being connected to my community has given me the foundation to thrive and inspire others, because I believeLife supports those who support Life —And when we support, strengthen and uplift others, we create ripples of positive change that extend far beyond our immediate circles.That's why I help families create empowering stories.Because if you and your family can resonate with your own empowering story,
it can change
- your home,
- your community,
and even
- your nation.You may say I'm a dreamer or even a 'crazy one', but hey...
....it's even possible our
words can change
our world.
