In this episode, Nick shares his story of growing up in an emotionally unavailable household and how he is now dealing with the long-term impacts of these experiences. Despite not having his emotional needs met by his parents, he maintains a relationship with them in their old age. He discusses how this has helped him understand the importance of acceptance, forgiveness, and compassion, and taught him to be more empathetic in his relationships.

We explore how his past may have affected his relationships with others and how he has learned to manage his feelings. We address the shifts he made from feeling nothing at all as a child to experiencing depression later in life, and how he overcame this by learning that he had the power to change his life for the better. We also delve into the moment where he was at his lowest point and realized that no one was going to save him; he had to save himself.

Overall, this episode showcases how even in adulthood, the effects of childhood trauma can have far-reaching consequences on our lives. It is an inspiring conversation that emphasizes the importance of resilience, courage, and transformation in overcoming challenges, and illustrates how one can cultivate self-love and develop a healthy mindset in spite of difficult circumstances. Join us in this episode and learn more about how to navigate your path to a fulfilling life.
