21 - Live interview with "Ed K"
from Healing for Male Survivors with Mike Chapman · host Mike Chapman
Our 5th LIVE interview. This week we have “Ed K” as our guests. Ed K is a native of the Twin Cities area of Minnesota. He talks about his years of growing up, becoming a husband and father, and moving through to his middle age years knowing something was wrong. In spite of having a wonderful life, great kids, a strong faith, and a late bloomer in reaching a successful career, he was being pulled into unwanted behaviors by an evil force. For most of his childhood and adult years he was easily manipulated, unable to say no to almost everything, afraid to make himself visible and share his talents, and be his true self. An inner child visit changed everything for him. Note: After the recording, Ed shared with me that while he was sharing, new memories came up (things he had forgotten about) and he ended up sharing those as well during our interview.
