Recovering from Your Childhood with Clay Jones
In this powerful episode, Clay Jones shares how a childhood marked by constant relocation, addiction, and silence shaped his ability to connect, feel, and trust. As the youngest child in a deeply dysfunctional family, Clay learned to disappear—becoming what he calls a “frozen boy” who carried emotional numbness into adulthood.
Clay opens up about fear, forgiveness, and the long road to healing, including how he learned to move through triggers instead of avoiding them and what helped him forgive his parents after their deaths. Now a social worker, father, and author of My Sister’s Brother, Clay reflects on how breaking the silence, finding community, and taking emotional risks transformed his life. This is an honest, hope-filled conversation about resilience, recovery, and what it truly means to heal.
