Reframing Life
The Art of Seeing Love in Every Story
Exploring how to be real and vulnerable allows us to see and feel love more deeply.
ReFraming Life - A Manifesto
ReFraming Life is the art of turning experience into understanding, and love into perspective.
It begins with a choice to stop asking why life happens to us, and to start asking what life is trying to show us. It’s the courage to look again, to see pain as teacher, love as mirror, and change as the soul’s invitation to awaken.
To reframe life is to live as a witness rather than a victim, to find meaning in what once broke you, grace in what once scared you, and gratitude in what remains. It’s learning that we don’t heal by erasing the past, but by holding it in new light.
Love sits at the center of this work. Not sentimental love, but the kind that asks everything of us: to surrender control, to let go when holding on hurts, to stay open when we’d rather close, and to trust that what leaves still leaves something sacred behind.
Through every connection and every goodbye, we are being shaped, not into something new, but into who we truly are. ReFraming Life is the practice of remembering that truth, again and again.
It is the simple, sacred discipline of saying:
This, too, belongs. This, too, can teach me. This, too, is love.

About — ReFraming Life
by Kent Waugh
A personal journey through love, loss, and the courage to begin again.
Welcome,
I’ve always known I was meant to write my story. I just didn’t know when I’d be ready to live it fully enough to tell it.
ReFraming Life is my passion project, born from the ashes and awakenings of love, loss, and renewal. It began as an attempt to make sense of heartbreak, first from the collapse of my first marriage, then my father’s passing, and later, the loss of my soulmate, Adel. Each time I tried to write, my soul wasn’t ready. The pain was too raw, the emotions too vast. So I tucked them away, waiting for the day my spirit could bear their weight.
Five years later, that day arrived.
Through coaching, therapy, heartbreak, healing, fitness, and turning 60, my soul reawakened. Then I met my second soulmate, Nia, and everything I’d locked away came pouring out. Through letters to her, I found my written voice. Through storytelling, I found myself.
Now, I’m finally writing and recording the stories that have shaped me, the moments of beauty and breaking that taught me how to make meaning out of experience. Each piece of ReFraming Life explores how we learn to love, lose, and begin again, not once, but many times over a lifetime.
I’m not a writer by trade; I’m a human being trying to make sense of what it means to live fully, love deeply, and keep growing, even after 60.
Join me as I share these stories, through words, voice, and reflection, in the hope that something within them helps you reframe a moment in your own life.
