In Episode 158 of An Evolving Man Podcast, I’m joined by Peter Sykes — humanitarian, strategist, writer and author of Somewhere Never Home.
Peter has led major humanitarian responses across the world, but in this conversation we explore the deeply personal side of his story.
We talk about growing up as a third culture kid, being sent to boarding school at age 10, identity loss, addiction, achievement, emotional suppression, and the long path of healing.
This is an honest, moving and hopeful conversation for anyone interested in childhood trauma, boarding school syndrome, recovery, leadership and emotional wellbeing.
We Explore:
- Boarding school and abandonment
- Addiction as a response to pain
- Achievement and perfectionism
- Emotional suppression and intimacy
- Third culture kids and belonging
- Recovery, therapy and mindfulness
- Why it’s never too late to heal
A powerful episode with depth, wisdom and humanity.
