Kris Munsch lost his sixteen-year-old son, Blake, in a tragic automobile accident on December 23, 2005. Overnight, Kris went from being a highly successful business owner to a reclusive basement-dweller. In 2009, he partnered with Jeff Fouquet to develop and write The Birdhouse Project: A Collaboration of The Heart, Mind and Hands.

Currently, Kris is traveling the lower 48 states, living out of his vehicle, teaching the metaphor of the birdhouse and hoping this challenge will lead to new levels of self-discovery. To learn more about Kris's journey, CLICK HERE.

Jeff Fouquet carried the scars of his parents’ bitter divorce and the destruction of his family through psychiatric treatment, foster care, and criminal court before receiving a two-year sentence for a series of gun-related crimes. Since collaborating with Kris on The Birdhouse Project: a Collaboration of The Heart, Mind and Hands, Jeff has written his own story, The Birdhouse Project: Finding Peace after a Difficult Past.

Jeff currently lives in Northeast Kansas with his wife, Shanon. There he teaches high school English and spends his spare time studying and writing.
