“Why can’t we stick to focusing on happy, positive things, rather than creating problems where problems don’t exist?” - Person on Social Media

This was the question that came their way as Sharla and Robert shared about their weekly meeting agenda which included asking each other if there was anything they’ve done to hurt each other that should be processed and forgiven.

Well, Person on Social Media, buckle up. Your mind is about to get blown.

In this episode, we’re covering a lot of deep and also scientific ways our minds work. From inaccurate memories, to negative and positive sentiment override, and even how resentment manifests as physical pain, there’s an abundance of evidence that shows that letting go is better for you than holding on.


Tune in to listen to stories of forgiveness and strategies for how to break free from resentment.
