HENRY PANICCIA
Former extremist.
Trauma-forged transformation coach.
Guiding others through their Hell
“This isn’t self-help.
This is self-confrontation.”
— Henry Paniccia
ABOUT
A former member of the National Socialist Movement, Henry Paniccia left extremism behind and began a journey into deep trauma work, recovery, and spiritual confrontation. He is the creator of Rods and the Axe, a brutally honest video series confronting his past ideology through filmed conversations with his younger self. He is the author of With Lucifer On My Side, a memoir exploring personal alchemy through occult philosophy.
His assertiveness training project, The Confrontation Gym, uses high-pressure, real-time confrontation drills to help people reclaim power, purpose, and voice.
Henry’s work is not safe, sanitized, or corporate-friendly — and that’s the point.
