The Troubled Monk

I am The Troubled Monk, Ryan Donnelly—an author, artist, and seeker. Through my books, podcasts, and personal reflections, I invite you to join me on this journey. I’ve helped others break through personal blocks using journaling and shadow work, fostering self-growth and meaningful change.

I believe in embracing the unique flaws that make us beautifully human and letting go of the need for validation and perfection. Instead, I focus on daily gratitude and appreciating where we are in life today. The Troubled Monk represents hope, faith, and the courage to embrace change.

Welcome, fellow seeker.
