My path to where I am today was built upon sacrifice, diligent work, heartbreak, and a few really awesome moments. As I traveled toward wholeness, I had mentors and encouragers. Being the first person in my family to attend college, I decided that I was determined to change the trajectory of my life and family history. In addition to being my rock, my wife has assisted me in developing the framework for empowering boys and men who are struggling with adverse childhood and traumatic life experiences.

Robert Marshall, the CEO of ‘I Am Man:’ & founder of The Survivors Circle joined the Weekend Morning Show to discuss the importance of killing the taboo against sexual trauma against men.

According to speaker, author and founder of I AM MAN. COM, Robert Marshall, one in six men has been sexually abused. He states, " When I first heard these statistics, I was blown away. Men are dying from within because of the pain and shame that comes with sexual abuse."

The defining moment in my professional career was sharing my story of sexual trauma publicly. After years of hiding the pain and shame I felt, I realized that I wasn’t alone. There are a sea of brothers who have experienced some of what I went through. By sharing my story, I gave them the courage to speak up and seek help. I quickly saw the need for male sexual trauma survivors to have a safe space to heal

Through his nonprofit, Iammaninc.com, Marshall brings men together to discuss their sexual trauma. He was afraid no one would attend the first event in 2019, but almost 100 men showed up. Single and married. Black, Hispanic and white. LGBTQ. They were fathers, grandfathers, mostly in their 40s and 50s, many of whom had sworn to take their secrets to the grave, Marshall said. “We automatically have a type of man in mind that this happens to ... but the truth is, sexual abuse or trauma has no specific look.”

Robert Marshall, founder of I Am Man Inc., is not only an advocate for sexual assault victims who are men, but also a survivor himself. Marshall spoke with The Root about how he used his story to empower other survivors to seek wellness and how his upcoming book, Echoes, explores more intimately the stories of survivors and ways to overcome the effects of the trauma.

Perhaps one of the least attended sectors affected by the patriarchy are men themselves. Following the years of toxic conditioning to “take it like a man,” males from all ages and walks of life hesitate to express and embrace their pain.
