R.T. III doesn’t write from comfort. He writes from wreckage and wonder. His words are forged in collapse, sharpened in silence, and delivered with an honesty that never looks away. His style is cinematic, weaving raw metaphor with lived experience. Called one of the most distinctive authors of his generation, his voice cannot be imitated. Only felt.
He knows what it means to suffocate under the weight of your own life, to hide behind a mask, to wonder if wholeness is even possible. That is why he wrote Hell Is Holy: The Rawest Book on Healing Ever Written. It is not meant to soothe, but to confront. To rip away excuses. To wake readers up to the parts of themselves they have been running from.
R.T. III has been writing most of his life, but it wasn’t until he left a high-level corporate career that his words took center stage. From there, he became a men’s coach, the leader of one of Colorado’s largest men’s groups, and the host of retreats built around raw honesty and brotherhood. A devoted student of philosophy, psychology, and spirituality, he built his life around asking harder questions and refusing easy answers.
He writes to show people how simple it can be to become their best selves, with no masks, no mantras, just the raw truth that sets you free. His work has sparked transformation in countless lives, from boardrooms to backroads, proving that what begins in pain can end in freedom. He’s not a guru. He loathes titles.
He’s the man who went through hell and returned carrying a message humanity can’t ignore.
His work is not safe, not polished, not wrapped in affirmations or formulas. It is honesty that scars and heals in equal measure.
No dogma. No mantras. No easy steps. Just words that sear, stories that stay, and books you carry like live weapons.
At its core, his writing pulses with collapse and resurrection, radical self-responsibility, masculinity reclaimed, and the strength born only on the far side of struggle. It is spiritual psychology without pretense, visceral storytelling drawn from scars, and raw motivation born from survival, not slogans. Always, it points back to becoming the fullest, most unshakable version of yourself.
Beyond the page, R.T. lives off-grid in a small surf town in Baja California Sur, Mexico. His days are split between writing like his life depends on it, surfing Baja breaks at sunrise, mountain biking desert trails, and playing beach volleyball at sunset. His life may be stripped to the essentials, but his work is nothing short of explosive.
