Childhood Trauma, Identity & Emotional Truth | AEM #156 Christopher J Wesley
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In Episode 156 of An Evolving Man, I speak with Christopher J. Wesley — artist, speaker, and emotional leadership thinker — about trauma, identity, and emotional truth in a world shaped by pressure, performance, and algorithms.
Christopher shares his powerful journey from early childhood abuse to rebuilding his identity through grief, creativity, and self-awareness.
We explore how trauma shapes the way we see ourselves, why many leaders are disconnected from their emotional world, and how reconnecting with feeling can transform both life and leadership.
This episode also introduces Christopher’s FRAME Method — a practical approach to integrating emotion and logic in decision-making.
A deeply human conversation about healing, resilience, and what it means to live with authenticity.
