Randy Hochderffer - Childhood Trauma, Addiction and Self Worth - How Indy Wrestling changed my life

Randy Hochderffer is a life-long pro wrestling fan who recently discovered the world of Northern California Independent Wrestling. Raised in Fresno, he has loved watching pro wrestling since Hulk Hogan wrestled the Ultimate Warrior at Wrestlemania 6.
As for many, his wrestling fandom in those days was closeted. Many made fun of him for his love of "fake wrestling." However, wrestling gave him an escape from a life riddled with family difficulties. Born with a birth defect that effected his ribs, lungs and right arm, he faced a lot of ridicule from schoolmates. That coupled with abandonment, abuse and trauma from his parents, led to severe mental health issues that effected relationships. As trust issues continued to develop, Randy fell into addiction, which caused significant problems in his young adult life. He felt trapped, abandoned and alone. Until...he discovered Independent Wrestling through a YouTube Channel, which changed his life completely.
Hear Randy's story, from being abused by his nearly absent biker father as a kid, to abandoned by his mother at 15, to dealing with trust issues and self-worth issues, to discovering a new outlook on life by joining the Norcal Independent Wrestling Family.
How does childhood trauma effect him? Does he still love his parents? What is it about Indy Wrestling? Is he related to Tripp Rogers? Find out on this interview with  @Randiesel300 
This is a great story that needs to be heard. ​

At times she lives a male life as Chuck and at times she lives a female life as Savannah. She is married to a woman, who helps her navigate both her male and female life.

She also leads conference workshops and has given two TEDx talks, and emceed a third.
