Wandering Spark : Igniting The Path To Overcoming Abuse With Author Kyle Robinson
[Content Warning]: Child abuse, drug use
At only four years old, Kyle Robinson's life changes dramatically—a man he calls Big Bad Ben, or Triple B, becomes his stepfather. Over the next decade, Kyle and his siblings live in terror daily, trying anything to escape the abuse. With nobody to turn to, Kyle's urge to escape reality leads him to unhealthy relationships, destructive habits, and multiple run-ins with the law. Still in high school, Kyle is arrested, facing jail, and forced to defend himself in court—altering the course of his life. Kyle received a B.A. in Political Science from Kent State University and his J.D. from Western Michigan Law School. He runs a successful education company and is licensed to practice law in New York. Kyle currently resides in Cleveland, Ohio with his dog Booker.
Today, Jan is joined by Kyle Robinson, who shares his story of triumph over trauma after experiencing severe physical and emotional abuse as a child. He chronicles his journey in his book, 'Wandering Spark'. Kyle discusses the impact of abuse on his life, his struggle to find belief in himself, and the importance of having positive role models. He also explores the difficulty of recognizing abuse. Despite facing numerous challenges, Kyle persevered and achieved success in his education and career. They discuss the importance of sharing one's story and the healing power of self-discovery. They emphasize the need to look inward and focus on personal healing over seeking external validation. They also discuss the impact of childhood trauma on one's development and the importance of acknowledging and addressing it. Kyle shares his experience with Internal Family Systems therapy and the role of running in his healing journey.
