Real Men Feel: The Power of Traumatic Stories [Podcast]

When you change your perspective, you change your story, and you change your life.

Listen to Real Men Feel, #251, “The Power of Traumatic Stories” here:

Nathaniel Brown is a speaker, coach, author, and survivor of childhood sexual abuse who believes we can all learn to “re-see” our traumatic experiences with a new perspective, allowing us to engage with life differently.

“I’ve always had this thirst for understanding more, instead of going out to play I’d rather read a book.” ~ Nathaniel Brown

Suppressing a traumatic event for almost 30 years will always eventually force its way to the surface. For Nathaniel, this manifested in night terrors, isolation, and spurts of rage. After years of living with distrust of the world coupled with a vow of silence, Nathaniel was met with an ultimatum of healing his inner damaged child or continuing on in a life of misery.

In 2019, the shift from mindset to integration began to materialize.

It came with an understanding of generational trauma passed on in our genetic makeup combined with the ideology of manhood in the Black community. This allowed for Nathaniel to do the deep work within himself and become at peace with his inner child.
