What if one woman’s awakening could help the whole world remember?
A novel of awakening, lineage, and the possibility that human consciousness can change the course of our world.

Maya Burke is doing everything right and feeling nothing real.
Then she discovers a journal left behind by the father she believed was long gone — and the careful surface of her life begins to fracture.
His writings lead her across the country: to sacred places where the land itself seems charged with memory, to a hidden community preserving an ancient practice, and to altered states of perception she has no language for.
The community holds an extraordinary belief — that through coordinated intention and awakened consciousness, human beings can shape the unfolding of history itself. That the world can change from the inside out.
And that Maya may be part of how it begins.
What starts as a search for her father becomes a descent inward: into inherited grief, buried memory, and a knowing within herself that has been waiting — perhaps all her life — to awaken. Her own becoming and the world’s, she discovers, are not separate.
Waking Maya is not just a story about one woman’s awakening. It’s about the possibility that all of us, together, might wake up too.
Waking Maya belongs to a lineage of fiction that treats the inner life as the real adventure — books like The Alchemist, The Celestine Prophecy, and Way of the Peaceful Warrior.
Stories where transformation matters as much as plot — and where the awakening of one person opens a question about the awakening of us all.
Readers describe Waking Maya as a book that leaves them hopeful: that reality is more participatory than we’ve been told, that coordinated human intention might genuinely shape the world, that a more peaceful, awakened humanity is possible. If you’ve ever sensed there was something more beneath ordinary life, Maya’s journey may feel less like fiction than recognition.
