Content warning: domestic violence, emotional abuse, and identity repression.This is where the story truly begins, not with love, not with intention, but with opportunity. In Once Upon a Harm, I expose the first day harm became possible: the moment control felt useful and fear found direction. There is no romance here, no innocence preserved.

Episode 1: Once Upon a Harm

Man Enough sounds like a podcast about growth, strength, and becoming better, but it isn’t. This series is a confession told from the moment harm can no longer be denied. Each episode walks backward through domestic violence, emotional abuse, gaslighting, coercive control, masculinity, sexual repression as a gay man, and fear, tracing how harm formed, hardened, and persisted until it reaches the first day harm became possible. This is not a redemption story, so don&#39;t expect to find inspiration, healing arcs, or closure. But if you’re looking for honesty without absolution, start here.
