Welcome to Resilience in the Shadows, the podcast by TentMakers, where we illuminate the powerful journey of individuals overcoming the darkness.
In this episode, we are joined by Officer Johnny Banda, a survivor, author, and hero, who shares his powerful journey from enduring abuse in an orphanage to becoming a law enforcement officer who saved lives during the Santa Fe High School shooting.
Johnny opens up about his early years, where he faced sexual abuse by peers, caretakers, and potential adopters, and how these experiences shaped his life. He recounts the pivotal moment when he confronted one of his abusers in a professional setting, preventing further harm to others, and how this confrontation was a turning point in his healing process.
Johnny also discusses how his past influenced his relationships, his role as a husband and father, and his dedication to helping others heal from trauma. Through sharing his story and his book “Behind Closed Doors of an Orphanage,” Johnny aims to inspire others to confront their own traumas and find healing.
