Books and Programs from Grant and Christine Wattie

An exploration of what it means to stop performing and start inhabiting your own life — especially for men in the second half who've traded presence for the hollow performance of competence.

The Audition is the book I wrote toward for a long time. It's about the Director in the mind who drives relentless achievement — and what happens when you finally stop auditioning for a role nobody asked you to play. It's for men who've built everything on the outside and are beginning to sense the cost of that on the inside. About presence as an irreplaceable asset. About the King Move: admitting mid-performance that you've been hiding. Personal, direct, and written for anyone who knows what it is to succeed at everything except being fully there.

For couples in crisis. A fast-track, proven system for going from breakdown to breakthrough — written for couples who don't have time to wait.

I wrote The Phoenix Protocol for the couples who arrive saying they've tried everything and nothing has worked. It's the book version of the intensive crisis work we do in person — the same principles, the same approach, available to anyone who needs it right now. Direct, honest, and built for urgency.

Christine's upcoming book — a deeply personal account of resilience, healing, and what it means to rebuild from the inside out.

Christine has been writing toward this book for a long time. Buried Not Broken is about what happens when life breaks something open in you — and what it takes to rebuild from the inside out rather than just paper over the cracks. Personal, honest, and written for anyone who knows what it is to carry something heavy and is ready to set it down.
