Author
Neal Winsomer
Father first and foremost, then strategist, speaker, and author.
I wrote Calling Out the Shadows: A Father's Stand Against the Current to keep a clear record for my daughter, and to leave a useful map for other parents in a high-conflict situation. This site holds some of the parts of my story, elements of my writing and four of the principles I hold to.

On the Road
The Light Up the Shadows Book Tour
999 hours on the road, 35 cities, California to Florida. Follow the journey and help keep the tour going.
The book is a memoir and a practical guide. It follows the years I spent trying to reach my daughter through broken communication, and it lays out the structure I used to make sense of a repeating pattern, chapter by chapter. Here you can read how the book came to be, the approach behind it, a note on how I did and did not use AI, and where to find my videos, quotes, and podcast.
