Welcome to If I Know Better

I’m Jimmy Perez — a husband, father, storyteller, and seeker. I’ve written three books so far: Adam’s Journey, If I Know Better, Why Am I Not Doing Better?, and most recently, The Soul University. But titles aside, what I truly am is a man trying to make sense of this life — spiritually, emotionally, and truthfully.

This blog is a continuation of that journey. It’s a space where thoughts become conversations, where reflection meets honesty, and where questions often matter more than the answers. I write about the human experience — the tension between knowing and doing, the beauty in brokenness, the spiritual tug-of-war we often bury, and the soul’s quiet whisper trying to be heard.

If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and thought, “I should be further by now,” or “Why do I keep repeating the same patterns?” — you’re not alone. I’ve been there. And in many ways, I’m still there, peeling back layers, healing old wounds, and trying to align who I am with who I’m meant to be.

Through my writing, I don’t pretend to have it all figured out. But I do share the truths I’ve wrestled with, the lessons I’ve learned (usually the hard way), and the insights that come when you stop running from yourself and start listening to the voice within.

So whether you’re here for a few minutes or returning week after week, I hope this space offers something real — something that resonates, challenges, or even changes you.

Let’s grow together. One honest word at a time.

  1. I love you brother. Some think I over share but I take it as a duty to put my struggles, my beliefs, my doubts, and all in the front lines. As much as it helps me, it helps others know they’re not alone ❤️
