Breaking Cycles: Resilience, Recovery & Finding Love – Buffalo Men Speak Out | Igniting Hope Radio
In this powerful episode of Igniting Hope Radio, Sherman Webb-Middlebrooks, aka The Full-Time Black Man, sits down with Scott and Anubias to explore the raw truth about resilience, overcoming addiction, and breaking free from violent pasts. Scott, a facilitator with Nurturing Fathers of Western New York and volunteer at the Buffalo City Mission, shares his journey of transformation and the powerful work he's doing with Badass Men's Alliance. Anubias, a young man in his 20s, opens up about his experiences growing up in Buffalo and the life-changing mentorship he's received from Scott and other men in the community. We also dive into the bold idea of leaving Buffalo to find love and what it means for those trying to heal and grow beyond their past. PLUS: We welcome Brother Bryant, who recently moved to Buffalo from the New York City area to join his fiancée. He shares his heartfelt journey of transitioning from the fast-paced life of NYC to the community-focused spirit of Buffalo, all in the name of love. His story of faith, commitment, and adaptation is a testament to the power of love and resilience. Join us for this candid and inspiring conversation that sheds light on the strength of community, the power of mentorship, and the hope for new beginnings.
