In this episode we delve in to one of the most common origins of trauma, "The Dad Wound". Regardless of whether our fathers stayed in our lives or not, there are traumatic triggers, emotional repercussions, and much confusions that can stem from the relationship with a father. We'll attempt to identify what this looks like, how it manifests into relationships and everyday life, as well as finding a solution. Men are notorious for continuing generational hurt.

In this episode, we dive into the treacherous aspect of resentment. We'll see how resentment looks in different situations, how it can be poisonous to the mind and body, and what to do with the resentment you may have. Resentment is a response mechanism for when we perceive that we have been wronged. When one develops a resentment, there are two options: accept accountability and act, or let it fester and avoid. Those who choose to act, there will almost always be some sort of backlash, so be prepared. Those who choose to avoid, this will almost certainly develop into a desire for revenge, which is VERY poisonous to the one holding the resentment. Forgiveness is the only solution. This is a concept that is very simple, but not at all easy. As always, feel free to reach out and let me know what you think.
