Bent Not Broken: Crossing Life'S Bridges Of Tragedy, Trauma And Triumph by Landis Graden

MIAMI - April 23, 2021 - PRLog -- Uplifting Memoir Shows a Path for Overcoming Childhood Trauma

Entrepreneur Landis Graden's memoir, Bent Not Broken, begins with his visit to the Obama White House as a VIP guest. There he remembers how his life was affected by the abuse and trauma of his youth, which served to make the White House visit a catalyst to uncover how generational abuse seeped its way into his adulthood, making him feel like an unworthy imposter.

Graden calls himself Bent Not Broken. He uses his past hardships and battles to particularly encourage men who have fallen victim to "strong stereotyping" to accept the idea of vulnerability and continuous healing. His stories explain how his father laid the groundwork early on for what he thought a strong man should be. What Graden discovers is that what made his father abusive had its foundations laid generations earlier.

Through therapy, faith, and patience, Graden shares his path to recovery. He considers society's expectations of men, and how years of abuse and trauma can give even the best and brightest wounds that need healing.

This story of overcoming trauma to find wholeness within is an inspiration, as well as a call to action for others to find their own healing and happiness.

Landis Graden is the founder and CEO of a certified public benefit real estate development company that works with school districts, faith-based entities, and nonprofits throughout the State of California.
