In this deeply honest episode, I sit down with Jim, a trauma recovery coach for men and author of Echoes of Broken Skies (available now on Amazon). Jim opens up about his own healing journey and how he’s helping other men break free from generational pain, emotional repression, and silent suffering.

We dive into:

• Why men struggle to ask for help

• How trauma shows up in relationships

• Tools for emotional recovery and self-awareness

• And how writing Echoes of Broken Skies became part of Jim’s own healing process

This one is for the men who were told to “man up” but never taught how to heal. And for the women who love them.
