What if the child you're calling “difficult” is actually hurting? What if behind every outburst is a story of survival? And what if you’ve been responding to trauma all wrong?
In this raw and deeply personal book, former excluded student turned proprietary futures trader, business consultant, mentor, MBA graduate and most importantly, father shares his powerful journey from pain to purpose. Expelled from school and misunderstood for years, he reveals how childhood trauma—Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs)—shaped his behaviour and worldview.
But this isn’t just a memoir. It’s a blueprint.
Blending lived experience with cutting-edge research and practical strategies, From ACEs to ACEs introduces a new framework for
Awareness. Connection. Empowerment.
This is the pathway from chaos to clarity, from survival to success.
Whether you're a teacher, parent, youth worker or policymaker, this book will challenge how you see behaviour—and show you how to support the young people who need it most.
It’s time to stop punishing pain and start transforming it.
Because when we change the way we look at things, the things we look at… change.
