I'm writing a memoir book of a deep story about my life that I've never spoken about before.   I've talked a lot about the sexual abuse that happened to me when I was a young boy and how life was wonderful until I was 3 years old when everything changed. I’ve been telling that part of my life often since I started an organization in 2016 called MeTooWhatNow (www.metoowhatnow.com).  It helps men and women who suffered childhood trauma get their lives back.   What I've NEVER talked about is the darkness in my life that I had for decades.   When my memoir comes out in 2024, it'll cover the darkness in my life that'll surprise many.  The reason why I decided to do this is to help anyone who's experienced the darkness.   More details to come in other podcasts and social media as I write the book and before it finally becomes completed and released. __________________________________ CONNECT WITH ED: Website: www.edsquire.com Email: [email protected] Facebook: www.facebook.com/edsquire2 Instagram: www.instagram.com/visiblekindness/ LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/edsquire/

Nicole Moehring is the Founder of Voices of Change 2018 (VOC), a nonprofit whose mission is to reduce the risk of sexual abuse for children with disabilities. Nicole has a daughter and an autistic son who are victims of sexual abuse and assault. In her pursuit of justice, she was shocked to see the difference in how the justice system believed her daughter and was treated so well, yet her son was not.  She felt like her son didn’t matter.

Today, she serves on the Ohio Attorney General Committee for Crime Victims with Disabilities. She works with legislators to change and pass laws to enforce more robust policies and create best practices for reporting child abuse and processing cases. And just last year, she received the annual ‘Crucial Point Award’ presented to people and organizations that delve beyond the surface of sex crimes to focus on overlooked niches of survivorship. Nicole is a first-time author of -      “Finding Myself – Overcoming abuse, heartbreak, and loss, then finding true love.” -      And she is currently writing her second book, “Finding My Voice.” Nicole resides in Hinckley, OH, with her husband, Chris, and her two children.
