Language of Love with Dr. Laura Berman

Unmasking Your Inner Child: The Key to Authentic Living


Listen Later

They say the secret to deeper, more authentic relationships might be hidden in your childhood. What if the love languages you speak today are echoes from a younger version of yourself? 


In this Language of Love session, I’m reconnecting with Carmen, a caller I advised on the show nearly two years! Time really does fly, doesn’t it?


Carmen has been on quite a journey since we last spoke. Remember when she was grappling with hiding her personal values from her partner and dealing with people-pleasing and codependency? It’s a struggle many of us can relate to, seeking validation from others while keeping parts of ourselves hidden. For Carmen, that meant concealing her spiritual beliefs from her partner—a recipe for tension in any relationship!


Fast forward to today, and Carmen’s life is buzzing with change. She’s moved to a new town with her partner, left her decade-long job, and embarked on a new career path. Quite a whirlwind, right? On top of that, her father, who struggles with alcoholism, is coming to visit.


In this session, we dive into these major transitions and explore how Carmen can stay true to herself amid it all. 


Let's delve into what we uncover:

  • Carmen's journey of self-discovery and embracing her spirituality
  • The impact of upbringing on self-expression and fear of judgment
  • The power of self-acceptance and being authentic in personal growth
  • The emotional rollercoaster of opening up and being vulnerable
  • What "soul retrieval" is and how it heals past traumas
  • Transitions in life and the associated fears and pressures
  • How working with our inner child can ease fears and boost self-love
  • Why a supportive environment is key for being vulnerable

  • I recommend Teal Swan’s book The Completion Process and her course on revisiting and healing those parts of ourselves we often resist—the inner child work, if you will. After all, the inner child is often the first step in spiritual awakening.


    Remember to visit my website for tailor-made courses like the "Good Grief" course, "Quantum Sex," and more. Let’s embrace being unapologetically authentic and make every moment count!
