  • Ep 108: The Secret: How Molestation Shapes a Mans Future with Dr. Isaiah Pickens and Hosea Chanchez
    Oct 3 2024

    Breaking the silence on a deeply personal and often hidden trauma, I share my story of being molested as a teenager by a trusted father figure. This episode of Goodfellas confronts the crisis of black male vulnerability and the societal expectations that can often stifle authenticity. We dive into the harrowing realities of childhood grooming, revealing the manipulative tactics predators use and the long-lasting impact of these traumatic experiences on identity and life choices. Dr. Isaiah Pickens joins us to discuss the urgent need for a supportive community for black men, emphasizing the vital role of mental, emotional, and spiritual healing.

    As we unpack the disorienting nature of sexual trauma, we explore the intricate dynamics of trust, masculinity, and the often conflicting societal pressures placed on young black men. Through heartfelt conversations, we shed light on the adultification of black boys and the stigmas that prevent many from seeking help. This episode seeks to empower men to break their silence and reclaim their narratives, offering tools and insights to navigate their traumas. By sharing these stories and experiences, we aim to foster a culture where acknowledging pain is seen as a strength, not a weakness.

    Creating intentional spaces for open dialogue and support, we highlight the transformative power of brotherhood and accountability. From recounting the journey of a long-standing group of men who transitioned from business talk to deep personal struggles, we emphasize that building trust takes time but is essential for genuine connection and growth. Join us as we explore how past injuries shape our present and how understanding this can lead to more resilient relationships. With contributions from Dr. Isaiah Pickens, we underscore the importance of community in personal development, aiming to build a healthier, happier society for all.
