What if the thing holding you back isn’t your lack of meditation, breathwork, or journaling but the forgiveness you think you’ve already done?

In this episode, I’m talking about the kind of healing work most of us skip, especially when the person we need to forgive is still in our life. I’ll walk you through what it really takes to move from avoidance into awareness, and why true freedom only comes when we’re willing to face what we’ve buried.
