When a McDonald's Manager Faced Death and Found His Story

A man stands behind a fast-food counter at 2 AM when armed robbers burst through the door. They press guns to his head. They pull triggers - empty chambers clicking against his skull - trying to force him to open a safe he can't access. They'd killed someone the week before. He's certain he's about to die. This isn't the opening of a thriller; it's the true story of Matthew Dicks, who survived that night but spent years trapped in untreated PTSD, mapping exits in every room, cataloging threats, hearing phantom gun clicks while awake. What saved him wasn't just therapy - it was discovering that his most terrifying moment contained his most powerful story. Dicks went on to win 34 Moth StorySLAMs and 5 GrandSLAM championships, transforming personal trauma into profound connection. His approach reveals something radical: we all possess stories worth telling, and learning to share them authentically might be the most important skill we never learned in school.
