He’s made plenty of mistakes—each one a quiet teacher, shaping the man he continues to become. . See him live Friday June 20th, at The Wright for “Remarkable Men”. .

This Memorial Day week, we invite you to reflect on what it truly means to be strong. For too long, strength has been defined by silence and stoicism. But at The Secret Society of Twisted Storytellers®, we believe real strength looks different. We’ve seen it in the father who forgave, the son who said, “I’m still healing,” and the man who admitted fear but spoke anyway. True strength doesn’t hide—it reveals. It lives in vulnerability, in healing, in honest connection. This month, we’re not just sharing stories—we’re unmasking manhood and celebrating the power of softness, reflection, and growth. Happy Memorial Day to all our readers—and thank you to those who have shown strength in service, sacrifice, and story. (fb)
