Losses hit harder than gains. We struggle with change because we often associate it with losing out. What if your best life lies on the other side of choosing change?

Why do we idolize hyper independence so much? Is being alone that much more appealing than asking for help? Let's examine how we can heal from the trauma that's at the root of this.

A parent is the one meant to care for their child emotionally, physically, spiritually, psychologically and financially.

The difficult thing about Parentification is that so many of us have experienced it so much so that it is normalised in many cultures and societies. As highly efficient children and teens it seems like we have it all together and then we become adults and things feel like they are falling apart in certain areas of our lives yet we do not have a reference to the reasons why because this was seen as normal growing up. 

This episode discusses Parentification: understanding its types, how it plays out and the consequences of it. We are seeing it more and more in the children around us because there are things we are taking for granted that we need to act on to help the children in our communities. For ourselves as well, we need to understand it and self reflect so that we can heal from some of these things that have been invisible binds holding us back.

It’s hard to wait for something you want so much when everywhere you look there are people who are celebrating that very thing. Yet this is so many of us. There are hopes we have some we are loud about, others reside in the depths of our hearts that we can’t share and with each passing day we struggle to wait. Too often in the anxiety or sadness, we try to take control to force the thing even while we know deep down that this isn’t the way to do it.

What does Creativity have to do with trauma and healing? You’d be surprised at how integral it is to healing your trauma and rediscovering the parts of yourself hidden or frozen by the trauma. What’s the intersection between creativity, healing and faith? This is what I discuss in this Episode of Healing Growth. This one isn’t just for the creatives but for everyone!

We live in a world of masks, perfection, glitz, glamour and filters. All good but fleeting. We learn to present a carefully curated image but it doesn’t allow us to get too close to people lest they see through the smoke and mirrors. Yet many of us deep down want to be in relationships or have safe, authentic relationships where we can be truly seen, heard and known.

To get this we need to allow ourselves to be vulnerable. To be vulnerable with others we need to start being vulnerable with ourselves. Can you be truly honest with yourself? Can you ask yourself the hard questions and answer them knowing that it could free you from the pretence? Acceptance, worthiness, creativity, joy, belonging, gratitude and peace are on the other side of vulnerability. Are you ready to begin your healing journey?
