Childhood Wounds

Weekly Wisdom—Manhood: What it Means to be a Man

Do you carry around lingering, hard-to-put-into-words pain from childhood wounds? Those wounds may describe you, but they don’t have to define you. In From Broken Boy to Mended Man, the most personal of my 23 books, I share what I learned the hard way so you don’t have to. Browse the book and other resources to help you heal your childhood wounds and break the cycle.

Will help you understand what happened to you as a child, how your wounds affect you today (e.g., self-image, emotions, relationships), walk you through a proven process of healing, and build a positive plan to break the cycle with your wife, children, and friends.

“Understand what happened to you and start healing.”
