WARNING: Graphic Content involving description of fatal road traffic accident.
Jacques is a trauma survivor, after being involved in a horrific accident that totally changed the course of his life.
The accident is quite graphic, you have been warned, and involved three individual traumas one after the other. In the dark of night, Jacques hit a man on a pedal bike going 120 km/h (75 mph) on a major highway at night with no one else around. He is trained in first aid so walked back to see if he could help him but before he was able to, he watched in horror as the man was hit by an SUV and a semi right in front of him. Join us to hear more about that fateful night, and what transpired in the days, weeks and months afterwards..
Jacques' desire is to guide people on how to stop past emotional trauma, from affecting the present and future planning towards a better life. He talks about the struggles he faced to manage his mental health to create positive change and a new reality. Simply amazing.
