📘 What Survives: A Father's Blueprint for Chaos, Clarity, and the Long Haul
By Sean C. Guillory II
This isn't a clean-and-sober fairy tale.
It's the real story?of addiction, betrayal, fatherhood, and the systems that held when everything else collapsed.
Sean Guillory didn't just survive chaos.
He built a blueprint inside it.
With five kids, a fractured marriage, and a mind that didn't always play fair, Sean clawed his way from collapse to clarity?one bill, one meter, one moment at a time. This book is his testimony and his toolkit.
Inside, you'll find:
• 💔 Raw chapters on love, loss, and rebuilding trust
• 🧠 Lived experience with anxiety, bipolar depression, and co-parenting under pressure
• 🛠️ Tactical systems for survival?budgeting, leak detection, rhythm-based parenting
• 🧒 Emotional portraits of each child, and the lessons they taught him
• 🔁 A rhythm that holds?through storms, silence, and the long haul
This is not a memoir for pity.
It's a blueprint for anyone who's drowning and still showing up.
Whether you're a parent, a partner, a survivor, or a builder?this book will meet you where you are.
Take what holds. Leave what doesn't. And keep moving.
