Seth is a survivor of childhood abuse and trauma. After his father nearly killed his mother when he was 2 years old, he grew up with a single mother of 3 children. Around 10 years of age, his mother became abusive and addicted to hard drugs like crack and cocaine. This would lead him down a path to being molested by a grown man for over 5 years, and probably 300-400 occasions. After reporting and putting his abuser away, Seth has moved on and done incredible things with his life. Today, he is a soon to be author of his upcoming memoir “Strength Beyond the Shadows.”

This is a powerful conversation with Seth. He doesn't hold back and is not shy to describe the situation he found himself in, and how he negotiated it to be where he is today. There are some pretty full-on situations described around sexual abuse and violation, so if these topics trigger you, proceed with caution. If you do listen, you will find a man with a new lease on life, and a passion to make a difference in the life of others. Please enjoy this inspiring conversation.
