In this deeply moving episode of Man Up, Already!, host John C. Puritz sits down with Jerry Negrato to explore the raw realities of pain, grief, and ultimately—hope.

Jerry is a survivor of complex PTSD, chronic depression, and anxiety. He and his wife, Tracy, faced the unimaginable loss of their eldest daughter—an event that shook his faith to its core. In the midst of tragedy, Jerry wrestled with tough questions: Where was God in all of this trauma? Do I still believe in miracles?

Through his journey, Jerry discovered that pain has a purpose. Rather than turning from God, he turned to Him—and found restoration, gratitude, and a faith deeper than he could ever have imagined.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The role of EMDR and Lens therapy in healing trauma

• How gratitude can shift your perspective in the darkest moments

• The importance of self-care in recovery and resilience

• Wrestling honestly with God through tragedy and grief

• How faith can grow even when life feels shattered

Jerry’s story is raw, authentic, and filled with hope. This conversation will challenge you to look at pain differently—and to see how healing and faith can transform even the deepest wounds.
