Before 18: In Joseph’s Footsteps: A Memoir of Trauma, Loss, and Becoming

Before 18: In Joseph’s Footsteps – A Childhood Memoir

By Joseph Behnke

At just 19 years old, Joseph Behnke delivers a debut memoir that reads like a soul laid bare.

Before 18 began not as a book, but as a journal — a place to hold the pain he didn’t have the words to speak aloud. What started as private reflection became a powerful testament to survival, self-discovery, and the unbreakable human spirit.

With raw honesty and emotional clarity, Behnke recounts a childhood shaped by instability, drug abuse, and personal loss — including the heartbreak of losing the man he once called “father” and the love of his life. Through these pages, he documents not only what happened to him, but what it felt like to live it — to endure it, to grow through it, and to begin again.

This is not just a memoir. It’s a mirror for anyone who has ever felt abandoned, unseen, or unworthy. A message to the unheard. A reminder that your scars do not disqualify you — they reveal your resilience.

Before 18 is part one of a larger journey. Part two will come in time. But this book stands on its own as a deeply personal, emotionally resonant offering. Priced as a reflection of its depth and vulnerability, this is not simply something to read — it is something to feel.

For those who have walked through pain and still search for purpose — Joseph’s story is proof that even in darkness, the voice within us can still rise.
