LIFESTYLEZ

by Antonio M. Leftwich Sr.

On the surface, Joshua Holmes has everything most people spend their lives chasing - education, respect, stability, and success. A trained psychologist with a polished image and a quiet confidence, he helps others untangle their pain for a living.

But behind closed doors, Joshua is unraveling.

As the stories pile up and the days blur together, the line between healer and broken man begins to fade. Empty pleasures replace real connection. Routine replaces purpose. And one unexpected moment inside his office sets off a chain of events that forces Joshua to confront the life he's built - and the man he's become.

LIFESTYLEZ is a raw, reflective, street-real exploration of ambition, addiction, desire, and the quiet battles we fight when no one's watching. Told in episodic form, this story pulls back the curtain on success, exposing the cost of wearing masks - and the dangerous freedom that comes with taking them off.

Some shifts change everything.
Others reveal who you've been all along.
