You've survived childhood sexual abuse. But are you truly living the life you want, or are the consequences of what happened to you still controlling parts of your life?

In this season-opening episode of UnBroken: Better Male Survivors Podcast, Coach Thomas Edward challenges male survivors to move beyond simply surviving and begin taking meaningful steps toward recovery.

This episode explores how childhood sexual abuse continues to affect physical affection, sexual intimacy, and relationships long into adulthood. Why do you pull away from someone you love? Why does sexual intimacy sometimes feel more like an obligation than a connection? And why haven't your efforts to change these behaviors produced lasting results?

Drawing on more than 25 years of experience working with male survivors, Coach Thomas examines the difference between trying to change your behavior and addressing the underlying experiences driving it.

You've survived. Now what are you going to do with the rest of your life?

Why are survivors of childhood sexual abuse so often left carrying the consequences of what others did to them? In this deeply personal episode, Coach Thomas Edward shares his anger, sadness, and exhaustion over recent headlines involving political attacks on survivors, the Epstein files, and the continued blaming and disbelief of those who have experienced abuse. After more than 25 years of working with male survivors, he asks a difficult question: When will society stop expecting survivors to do all the healing while continuing to perpetuate the very attitudes and behaviors that wounded them?

Why do so many survivors become the person everyone depends on?

In this episode of Things Nobody Ever Told Male Survivors, Coach T explores the hidden burden of always being the strong one.

Through the story of James, a man whose identity became built around taking care of everyone else, we examine how childhood sexual trauma often teaches survivors to become self-reliant, responsible, and emotionally self-sufficient long before they're ready.

We'll explore the difference between strength and self-abandonment, responsibility and over-responsibility, and why so many survivors measure their worth by how much they can endure.
