S9 Ep. 7: Lisa: Restoring My Innocence

In this episode, my guest Lisa Smith and I discuss the difference between striving to "move on" or "get past" issues that result from abuse and true healing and wholeness that includes a restoration of innocence.

A word from Lisa:

“Innocence is lost in such big and small ways... and we seldom hear of a restoration of innocence. I believe that we can heal from even the deepest wounds, so that they are transformed to places of strength and peace. We cannot undo, or forget the trauma we have experienced, but I believe that the pain, accusation and conclusions we experience can be healed and transformed into confidence, love and strength. I have found hope, forgiveness, good friends and faith to be keys to this process. Each of us is worth our own best fight!”
