Oscar delves into the immediate challenges and trauma faced after the loss, the process of forgiveness, dreams and encounters with his son, and the transformation of his purpose through coaching and podcasting. He discusses the importance of creating a supportive environment for men to grieve and heal, and how movement and exercise played a crucial role in his own healing process. Oscar also addresses the negative comments and judgment he received, emphasizes the power of forgiveness, and not allowing others' opinions to define his journey.

He shares his mission to help men heal and break generational trauma through the Mended Man Podcast, and through his post-traumatic growth coaching program, the Mended Man Brotherhood.
