Disowned by his family.Divorced.Alienated from his children.Six surgeries in six years.Falsely accused, arrested, and pushed to the brink of suicide.

And somehow… Craig is still standing.

In this powerful episode, Craig Tulczyn joins me fromAustralia to share his story of surviving family trauma, divorce, parental alienation, chronic pain, false accusations, depression, and emotional abuse - while rebuilding his life from the ground up.

We talk about:
• toxic family relationships
• losing friends after divorce
• fighting to stay connected to your children
• workplace injury and chronic pain
• mental health struggles and suicidal thoughts
• being falsely accused and arrested
• trauma recovery and resilience
• healing after emotional devastation
• and finding purpose after rock bottom

Craig also opens up about how he turned years of pain,betrayal, and survival into helping others heal through coaching and support.

This episode is raw, emotional, inspiring, funny in unexpected moments, and deeply honest about what it really looks like to survive impossible situations and keep going anyway.
