079: Jeremy Roadruck: Why this Martial Arts Champion & Author Says his Childhood Abuse was a Gift


Listen Later

Today’s guest is Jeremy Roadruck.  Jeremy has a list of accomplishments.  He's a 6th Degree Black Belt who's won three U.S. National Kung Fu Championships, a Pan American Kung Fu Championship, multiple Grand Championships and he's started his own martial arts school.  Plus, he's written a bestselling parenting book before he even had kids of his own.  You'd say Jeremy has a lot of drive and is full of positivity, but it wasn't always that way.  You see, for 20 years Jeremy buried the memories of being sexually abused when he was 5 or 6 years old.  It took a toll on him--his attitude, his mindset and the beliefs he had about himself and those around him.  But then, he discovered martial arts and everything began to change. Now Jeremy says the pain and abuse he went through has become the biggest gift in his life because he chose to do something with it.
