In this episode of The Determined Society, host Shawn French sits down with entrepreneur and wellness advocate Jerome, whose life story is a raw testament to trauma, resilience, and the determination to build something better for the next generation.

What begins as a conversation about childhood adversity becomes a shocking revelation:

Jerome discovered that he was likely a surviving twin, the result of selective abortion practices in 1970s France. That discovery unraveled decades of unexplained psychological pain, complex PTSD, and emotional disconnection. For the first time publicly, he opens up about prenatal trauma, childhood neglect, and the generational patterns he is determined to break as a father of three young girls.

Key Takeaways:

-Trauma isn’t just emotional, prenatal and childhood trauma shape the brain, identity, and adulthood.

-Breaking generational cycles requires intentionality, vulnerability, and emotional honesty.

-Children don’t need perfect parents, they need present, loving, apologetic, humble ones.

-Determination is built in moments where your instinct is to react, but you choose to respond with love.

-Mental health struggles are not weakness; silence is. Talking about it is the first step to freedom

-Affordable healthcare is possible, removing middlemen makes life-saving medication accessible for families in need.
