When Ken Jenkins was growing up, he didn't have Amazon and social media - the world seemed simpler, problems felt smaller, and what you knew about the world really only came from what you were taught and who you spent time with. So you can imagine Ken's surprise when he discovered that he wasn't alone with his problems - there are thousands of people who suffer the same traumas he's carried all his life. But finding others wasn't the solution Ken needed - that would come from an entirely different place.
