Show NotesSegment 1Dr. GeorgeAnn Dau expands on the idea that missing the mark, an original sin, is something we all are faced with. Then GeorgeAnn welcomes a special guest, Gretchen Stubenhaus. She starts by discussing the original sin of her own life. Stubenhaus elaborates by stating all of her experiences and perceptions are through a judgement-free lens. The most important thing about missing the mark, is acknowledging it and learning from it. This includes in your own daily life as a parent, friend, or any other aspect of life. Stubenhaus shares some of her early life experiences with listeners to give an idea of what her childhood was like.
Stubenhaus continues sharing her story of early childhood. She shares her thoughts on therapy and how the effects wear off over time. People often leave feeling validated but in actuality nothing has changed. Until we are able find the problem in ourselves, we cannot truly heal our patterns of behavior that aren’t working. “Get in there and break up the hardened soil.” Around 16 years of age, Stubenhaus chose to stop receiving her therapy treatments. She breaks down relationships that came and went and certain choices she didn’t feel was necessary. What lives in our conscious we will continue to relive over and over until it’s out of our conscious. GeorgeAnn asks Stubenhaus for advice on breaking the patterns of passed down sins.
Stubenhaus is asked questions about her parenting style. She points out the differences in the way she’s raising her daughter opposed to how she was raised. She tells a story about getting angry at her husband because of where he moved the outdoor umbrellas in the house. She discusses the moment when she switched the urge in her brain to “nag” and turned it into a moment when she realized all the other amazing things he does to help. She realized in that moment, yelling at her husband for something so small, would not make her life any better. It wouldn’t make his life any better, and it could effect the attitude he has towards her and change how he parents their daughter. By choosing appreciation and peace, she changed the tone of the experience.
Using a vacuum as an analogy for life, Stubenhaus explains how our behavior is based off of everything we pick up throughout our life. Everything can be traced back to early childhood. Together they discuss how God has given them the tools needed to fix these “sins” in our lives. In the last minute Stubenhaus shares the things she wants to work on in her own marriage. GeorgeAnn invites Studenhaus back to discuss more on this topic next week. GeorgeAnn finishes this last segment with a beautiful closing prayer.
