Ryan, Jake: - Jake Ryan is in topflight physical condition. Seriously, dude is ripped. Especially considering he recently had massive open-heart surgery. He resides all over the world (when online), but sleeps most nights in New York City, where he has a thriving life coaching business and two amazing teenage kids whom he loves with all the might of his bionic heart. He can be found crushing it on TikTok as @FreeJakeRyan, creating content that enlightens, inspires, and entertains a billion people a day, potentially. While this is his debut novel, he also writes a popular daily newsletter, The Fire Wave Manifesto. Though to be fair, he claims merely to edit it, as the writing is done via direct downloads from the Universe.
