Book Overview
A web of family lies began to unravel during a session of Dale Lykins' voice therapy. It defined his existence, causing him to hold tension in his body in an attempt to protect himself.
Dale didn't trust very many people, including himself. He thought he was a disappointment, and carried himself accordingly. He tried making everyone happy so he would feel that he had worth. On top of his childhood of abuse and bullying, his evangelical Christian church taught him that God both hated him and loved him at the same time. Dale believed them. When his family truths were exposed and he found his voice, he knew that the "struggle" with same-sex attraction he felt throughout his life was not something he could just talk or pray away. Dale spoke the truth about his sexuality to his wife and their adult kids and, finally, to the rest of the world.
In Hush, Child: Finding My Voice & Breaking the Silence, Dale Lykins shares his winding journey and a captivating story for people who, like him, have lost their own voices and want to take them back.
