Two lives. Two perspectives. One journey that became a story worth sharing. HER tells her side—the woman who loved, waited, endured, struggled, believed, and learned how to find herself again. HIM tells his side—the man who survived, transformed, confronted his past, and continues to discover the man he was created to become.
Individually, their stories are powerful. Together, they create a conversation for THEM—the people who are living it, navigating it, questioning it, healing from it, or simply trying to become who they were meant to be. Through their books, speaking engagements, workshops, panels, intimate conversations, and transformational experiences, HER and HIM are ready to serve THEM... and THEM includes YOU.
Whether you connect with HER, identify with HIM, or see yourself somewhere in between, there
is a place for you in this conversation. Because sometimes the story you thought was only about two people becomes the very story that helps someone else find their way.

FROM GANGSTER TO MAN
THE BOY I HAD TO FREE BEFORE I COULD BECOME ME!

Before I Could Become Me is Calvin Phelps’ journey of transformation, healing, and self-discovery. Growing up in Newark, New Jersey, during the crack era, Calvin learned to survive in an environment where danger, violence, and survival shaped how young people viewed themselves and the world. For years, he carried those lessons into adulthood, believing survival was the same as living. Through fatherhood, marriage, faith, incarceration, reflection, and growth, Calvin began confronting the boy he had to be. This is a story of breaking cycles, reclaiming identity, finding purpose, and continues to discover more of who he is as he evolves into the man he was meant to become.
