An Honest Talk About Domestic Violence and Boys with Eugene Z. Bertrand
Domestic violence against males is real and often invisible. In this powerful conversation, best selling author Eugene Bertrand discusses the hidden epidemic of domestic and intimate partner violence against boys, teens, and men.
Eugene shares his personal experience as a survivor, how childhood trauma shapes self-worth, and why so many men stay silent due to stigma, shame, and cultural expectations around masculinity.
This episode explores:
- How domestic violence affects boys differently as they grow into men
- Why male survivors struggle to report abuse or seek help
- The connection between childhood trauma, behaviour, and later life outcomes
- The role of forgiveness, resilience, and therapy in recovery
If you or someone you know has been impacted by domestic or partner violence, you are not alone and your story matters.
