Growing up with alcoholic parents, Clay knew the shame and pain of neglect and not being heard. But his older sister was there for him, protecting him and nurturing in him a strong resilience that would carry him throughout adulthood. Years later, Clay would find out the many secrets his family kept. At the age of 40, he finally decided it was time to heal his childhood trauma.

For decades, Clay worked in child abuse prevention with the Maricopa County Dept of Public Health in Arizona where he made it his top priority to help people feel heard and seen. Today, Clay is a desired presenter for local and national conferences, and he's shared his story with thousands. He wants all who hear his story to know that no matter what's happened to you, hope and recovery are possible. 

This episode is uplifting and inspiring. You're going to want to listen in.

Clay’s memoir, My Sister’s Brother, tells his story of survival and healing after childhood trauma.
