Building Connections

After publishing my books, Surface Tension and Cracked Surface, I dedicate myself to bringing my message to conferences around the world. Whether as a keynote speaker or a workshop leader, I break through the myths and boundaries of Predatory Grooming, Long-term Effects of Sexual Abuse, and Surviving.

Embrace the Future

John-Michael battled with finding his true self and authentic voice. As an athlete, he endured sexual abuse from coaches, benefactors, and medical team which resulted in years of PTSD, depression, anxiety, and even suicide attempts. His research, The Grooming Trifecta, provides how grooming effects everyone no matter their sexual orientation, gender, or religious beliefs.

The True You

I develop interactive presentations while creating a safe environment for survivors and their loved ones to explore the ramifications of Predatory Grooming, Long-Term Effects of Sexual Abuse, and Regaining Your True Self. Using my personal experience, I am sharing how I have coped with my past and have been discovering my true self. It is a life long process.

The XYZs of Abuse

1 in 4 females and 1 in 6 males are abused before the age of 18. In athletics these numbers are higher, but are not reported. Each and every victims' experience is unique and different. There is not one cookie-cutter remedy. It is a life-long process for survivors to understand, forgive, and accept. And it is a completely different process for those who love the survivor.
