About D. Francis-H

D. Francis-H is an author and independent researcher exploring the interplay between behavioural psychology, holistic health, and the systems that shape how we live, work, and belong. His writing asks what it means to build a life that truly resonates — in our bodies, in our relationships, in our communities, and in our contribution to the world.

The name D. Francis-H marks a turning point. After 12 years working at the intersection of marketing, commercial strategy, and brand psychology — helping generate over £30 million in revenue across multiple sectors — he chose to step away from performance metrics to focus on meaning.

Today, his work investigates how inner states and outer structures shape one another. Drawing from lived experience, systems thinking, and cultural insight, he explores the forces behind work psychology, belonging, and nervous system regulation — often returning to one central question: how do we live in a way that feels honest?

His upcoming book Building Brands That Resonate offers founders and teams a human-centred lens for shaping brands and organisations through clarity, fit, and resonance. He also publishes essays and talks on the hidden drivers behind behaviour, leadership, health, and change.

He is currently developing Inflammation Overload Theory, a public-facing research project examining the role of systemic micro-inflammation in long-term mental and physical health (Learn more at: InflammationOverload.com).

Across all of these lenses, the work remains rooted in the same pursuit: understanding how we might live more coherently, more courageously, and more consciously.
