About the Author

Born in Sacramento in the late sixties, Grant Patrick Smith grew up in the Central Valley town of Modesto, California. Raised in a health club environment, Grant soon became an exceptional athlete, excelling in martial arts and having a brief stint on the men’s professional racquetball tour. He obtained his doctoral degree from Life West Chiropractic College in 1995 and then pursued diplomatic status with the International Academy of Medical Acupuncture. Grant makes his home in Arizona with his wife Tralonie and daughter Fallon. It took years of research for Dr. Smith to put pen to paper and form the book that you are reading today. Reckless Abandon is not only a story of change but is more of a transformation of the human soul. To awaken what lies dormant within us all. Because if one does not follow the path of potential, they may forever remain a whisper in the wind.
