    • Self-Improvement

Today we interview JM Lander, an elite athlete who was sexually abused by a secret society of powerful men starting at the age of fifteen. His composed and courageous manner of sharing his astonishing and disturbing story is humbling, considering the inhumanity he was subjected to.

Today, he writes, speaks, and offers consultation services to help individuals and organizations learn how to identify the signs of grooming and manipulation that can lead to sexual abuse with the goal of preventing the perpetuation of this type of violence and supporting survivors in facing their past.

John-Michael presented the speech An Athlete’s Silence at the TEDxDayton 2018 Convention and currently serves on The Army of Survivors Board of Directors.
