This blog is a space for truth‑telling, healing, and connection. As a survivor‑advocate and author of We Will Stone Him: Rising From The Ashes, John Gambacorta writes about trauma recovery, identity, resilience, and the emotional work of rebuilding a life after devastation.

Here you will find personal reflections, behind‑the‑scenes notes from writing the trilogy, and resources for anyone navigating their own healing journey. Whether you are a survivor, an ally, or simply someone seeking deeper understanding, you are welcome here.

I explore the realities of trauma recovery with honesty and clarity — from the long‑term effects of childhood trauma to the quiet victories that mark the healing process. These posts are written for survivors who want to feel seen, understood, and less alone.

Throughout the blog, you will find tools, concepts, and trauma‑informed perspectives designed to support your recovery. My goal is to provide clarity, validation, and practical guidance for anyone working to reclaim their life.

If my writing resonates with you, I invite you to explore We Will Stone Him: Rising From The Ashes, a memoir trilogy about survival, identity, and the long road back to yourself.
