In this raw and deeply personal episode of Triangle Theory, Malcolm Fraser opens up about his journey from surviving childhood sexual abuse to reclaiming his identity through healing, self-mastery, and brotherhood.

Who is Malcolm Fraser?

Malcolm is a somatic guide, men’s work facilitator, and the founder of Rise With Malcolm — a space dedicated to helping men reconnect with their bodies, access emotional freedom, and find deep inner strength through ritual, breathwork, and brotherhood. He leads transformational retreats, men’s circles, and workshops designed to help men move through shame, trauma, and emotional suppression.

We discuss:

– The long-term effects of trauma on masculinity and identity

– Why so many men suppress their pain and how it shows up in adulthood

– The turning point that changed Malcolm’s life forever

– Tools for healing: breathwork, men’s circles, emotional release

– How to break free from shame and rediscover personal power

This is a story about pain, truth, and the path toward becoming whole again. If you're a man — or love one — this is the conversation we all need to have.
