Mr. Michael McNamara believes something many people overlook: that helping others is often what finally helps us. As a Marine Corps veteran, author, and speaker, Michael knows firsthand what trauma can do—and what it takes to walk a better path. His book, "From Trauma to Joy", is filled with stories of people who chose to face their pain and serve others as they healed. In this interview, we explore the power of serving, why so many are struggling in silence, and how the Church can step in with more than good intentions. Michael also opens up about why speaking to children about trauma is essential and shares simple resources parents can use to begin the conversation at home. If you’ve ever wondered how to help others while still healing yourself, you’ll want to listen in.
