Steven Murphy : The Pyjama Boy - Child Abuse Victim Speaks Out!

Download this episode (29 min)   

Almost 1 in 5 Americans lived with an alcoholic while growing up, an experience my guest today knows all too well. Abandoned by his mother, the Australian native spent his childhood in the care of an extremely abusive alcoholic stepmother, while his father was incarcerated.

In addition to the physical and verbal abuse he suffered, he lived in absolute squalor for much of his youth. Even to this day, although having achieved many goals despite his childhood experiences, he admits that he still struggles psychologically and emotionally.

Because of his childhood experiences, he has now set off on a global mission to help others both survive child abuse, and to help them see that, in his own words: “No matter where you come from you can achieve something in life.”
