GABRIEL FERNANDEZ
WRITER & EXPLORER
Stories of purpose, clarity, and the search for meaning.
ABOUT ME
I began by creating for others — designing luxury travel and immersive experiences as a brand leader for American Express and storyteller for Apple. I saw how guests carried something home that went beyond logistics: the spark of feeling better, more inspired, more renewed.
At 40-something, I turned that same lens inward. I stepped away from the systems of success I had built, immersed myself in therapeutic modalities, spirituality, and adventure, and began writing about what those experiences meant.
Now, I bring the two together. My writing blends story, experience, reflection, and depth to inspire others to look deeper into their own lives. For many, my work is the first step into reflection — an entry point that sparks curiosity, insight, and new possibilities for themselves.
-
I immerse myself fully — whether in a mountain trail, a spiritual practice, or a retreat — and then translate the experience into story.
My writing weaves the immediacy of the moment with my own perspective of reflection, showing not just what happened, but what it meant.
The result isn’t a record of events, but an invitation: words that encourage people to see themselves in the story, and to step into the adventure of finding meaning in their own lives.
-
My path to finding strength, community, and purpose through trail running.
Searching for answers in psychics made me realize my future wasn’t written in the stars, but was waiting to be written by me.
The moment that caught me off guard, which prompted me to explore what it means to live in the present.
