about Good Baggage

“Ike so brilliantly and thoughtfully lays out a road map to show how difficult circumstances can, if healed properly, actually become a superpower.”
Jefferson Bethke
New York Times bestselling author of "Take Back Your Family"
“As someone who has spent decades working through my own childhood trauma and its impact on my relationships, I wish I had read this book earlier. Ike not only inspires us to believe that change is possible, but he also offers actual practices and exercises that lead to healthy relationships.”
Christine Caine
founder of A21 and Propel Women
"As a pastor, I’m routinely in conversation with adults who have spent so much time trying to make sense of their childhoods. This is why Ike Miller’s work is a great gift. He offers powerful storytelling, poignant insights, and a hope-filled vision of healing that often feels elusive. I’m grateful for this book!”
Rick Villodas
lead pastor of New Life Fellowship and author of "Good and Beautiful and Kind"
