Summary
This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.
Arman is a high achiever by anyone standards, except possibly those of his own father.
As you'll come to learn, Arman grew up in a home ruled by fear, and I must warn you that this will likely be a triggering conversation for anyone with experience of family violence. Arman's storytelling is vivid, and as much as every family is different, he manages to capture so many ways in which his family's story is all too common.
This is part one of a two part special. Part two will be available later this week. Subscribe now to ATC Plus for instant access.
