Ed and Amanda chat with Ben McKelvey, an author who had to relearn how to read and write following a stroke at just 27 years old, and Craig Semple, former homicide detective turned mental health advocate, following the 'Back from the Abyss' panel at the Words on the Waves Writers Festival. Both men shared with us their incredible stories of loss and resilience. We discussed post-traumatic growth, and the unique challenges men face when undergoing breakdowns and breakthroughs.
