At age 14, his father came around with a new wife. Unfortunately, she had also suffered massive trauma and was not capable of being a parent. Tim suffered alternating experiences of emotional abuse and massive neglect.

Tim turned inward to learn how to cope. He became what is called a "firefighter" in coaching and organizational psychology circles. It means that Tim is a peacemaker and a problem-solver.
