The Paradox of Healing


Listen Later

“Healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken. It’s about remembering you were never broken in the first place.”


In this deeply honest conversation, Erica Ballard explores the messy and beautiful paradox of healing - how you can be both whole and still growing at the same time. She shares that healing isn’t a linear journey or a checklist but an ongoing process of remembering your worth and reconnecting to your inner truth. Through personal stories, spiritual insights, and practical tools, this episode invites listeners to drop the pressure to "get it right" and instead trust the wisdom that already lives within them.


Key Takeaways

  • Why healing isn’t about becoming someone new, but returning to your true self.

  • How spiritual bypassing and perfectionism can sneak into the healing process.

  • Tools and practices to help you feel more whole right now, not “after you fix everything.”
