Momma's Boy: When Strength Comes from Women, but Guidance is Missing from Men - Hardcover

by Julian J. Short (Author)

Momma's Boy is a raw, reflective, and deeply human journey of what it means to become a man without a man in the house. Born into a world raised by strong women-his mother, grand-mother, sister, and great-grandmother-Julian learned love through sacrifice. protection and survival. But the lessons he received were taught through a woman's lens, leaving gaps no one recognized until life forced him to fill them himself.

This memoir follows his path from childhood in Chicago to manhood shaped by coaches, mentors, and father figures placed in his life at exactly the right time.Through trauma, conflict. rebellion, discipline, love and redemption. Julian uncovers the blueprint of manhood piece by piece. Fatherhood, faith, emotional intelligence, and forgiveness become the anchors that help him rewrite his story and break generational cycles.

More than a story about struggle, Momma's Boy is a testament to growth. It reminds readers that you can heal from what raised you, build what you never saw, and become someone your younger self never imagined. It is proof that a man is not defined by what he lacked, but by what he chooses to become.
