Rising From Shame

Hanging in There, When Pain Brings Us Home


Listen Later

Sometimes we’re told that pain is here to make us stronger, tougher, or to push us into making big changes. And while all of that can be true, it isn’t always the point.
In this episode, we explore the moments when pain becomes so intense, so unrelenting, that we reach an inner precipice—where fixing, reframing, or powering through no longer works. And unexpectedly, that’s where something else opens.
This conversation is about hanging in there when you can’t yet see the purpose of what you’re moving through now. About how pain, at its deepest, doesn’t harden us—but can soften us back home. Not to a better version of our personality or identity, but to our true self: the consciousness and living energy that is far more vast than the story we think we are. You’re not broken. You’re not failing. And you may be closer to home than you realize.
* This episode also includes an excerpt reading from my memoir, a reminder that home  is within you—even when everything feels broken, raw, or unclear.
