In this encore version of the the inaugural episode of Your 12 year Old Self, host Mike Nicholson speaks with Teen Life Coach and Young Adult Author, Cyndy Etler. Cyndy Etler is an internationally acclaimed teen life coach and an award-winning young adult author. As a child she was homeless, incarcerated, and suicidal, all resulting from a severely abusive home life. She has committed her life to supporting at-risk youth with care, non-judgment, and respect.
Join Mike and Cyndy as they discuss the realities of stepping out of the shadows of childhood trauma and serving young people. In Cyndy's case, the trauma stems from 16 months in a youth prison called "Staraight Inc." where she was kept against her will and indoctrinated into a cult.
